Capitol (Utah, United States) (search for this): article 2
Washington's Dying words. When George Washington bequeathed to his heirs the sword he had worn in the War of Liberty, he charged them, "Never to take it from the scabbard but in self-defence, or in defence of their country and her freedom; but that when it should thus be drawn, they should never sheath it nor ever give it up, but prefer falling with it in their hands to the relinquishment thereof"--words, says an eminent Englishman, the majesty and simple eloquence of which are not surpassed in the oratory of Athens and Rome. Let every soldier of the Confederacy engrave those last words of Washington upon his heart. Let them be inscribed in letters of gold upon the capitol of every Confederate State. Let the pulpit proclaim them; let the mother learn them to her children; let them be emblazoned on every banner; ring in every trumpet call, and flash from every sword.
