Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Indebtedness of the West to New England We return to New England with filial affection. We look to her as to a venerable mother, wise, noble minded and generous - hearted. She may have seemed exacting and austere in her early days, but she has mellowed and sweetened with age. If she has faults they lean to virtue's side. We recognize and gladly acknowledge our everlasting indebtedness to her for the high ideals which the pioneers carried hence to their humble homes in the West. They took with them the love of religion, the love of learning, the love of home. These have been the inspiration of the West. They have been the sure foundation of her development from small beginnings to her pres ent strength and power.
