"Tower above us, oh proud temple, monument of German might, Stand for honesty of purpose; stand for harmony and right." These words, reverently spoken, the gentle thrice tapping of a time-honored trowel upon a massive block of granite, the glad raising of the German flag, an American pennant streaming proudly above It, and the laying of the corner-stone of the new German Hospital was triumphantly completed. President Henry Epstein pronounced the dedicating words and reviewed briefly the history of the hospital and the German General Benevolent Society. From the Darlene Thorne Collection |
