The events of September 11, 2001 gave most Americans a cause to be proud: we came together in the face of a great threat and terrible tragedy to help and protect each other. Today, we are facing an even greater threat and an even more terrible threat than we could have imagined on that painful day. Ten years ago, we told the greatest threat we had ever faced that we would not be cowed into having our freedom curtailed by their actions. Today, we must tell a new threat to our freedom the same thing. Today, we face politicians who would rather stand by their party's more extreme members than help those who are suffering. Today, we face politicians who would rather tell us we are safe than tell us we are free. Today, we face politicians who would rather use a terrible event to threaten us with what could happen to us than use that terrible event to show us what we can do to help each other. Ten years ago, many people died. Shortly after that, our freedom began to die. Until our freedom is completely dead, we must and will fight for our freedom from tyranny; both foreign and domestic.

The terrorists won. Not by crashing airliners into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, but by turning the people of this country into sniveling cowards who have given up basic civil liberties and chosen to suffer gross indignities in exchange for an ephemeral image of security. V R - CA


I have said my strange premonitions regarding Mr. Clay wererealised. Ten days after we met we were affianced. Therewas a hastily gathered trousseau selected in part by Mme.LeVert in Mobile, and hurried on to my aunt's home. A monthlater, and our marriage was celebrated with all the éclat ourlittle city could provide, and the congratulations of a circleof friends that included half the inhabitants. It is sixtyyears since that wonderful wedding day, and of the maidens whoattended me - there were six - and the happy company thatthronged Judge Collier's home on that crisp February morningwhen I crossed the Rubicon of life, all - even thebridegroom - have passed long since into the shadowycompany of memory and the dead.


A peculiarity of Dr. Maynard was his dislike for the odour ofthe geranium, from which he shrank as from some deadlypoison. Upon the occasion of one necessary visit to him,unaware of this eccentricity, I wore a sprig of that blossomupon my corsage. As I entered the office the doctor detectedit.


Mr. Clay proceeded at once to Richmond, beset now withdeadly enemies within as well as without. Smallpox andscarlet fever raged there, as in many of our larger cities, and Ipleaded in vain to be allowed to accompany him. I turned myway, therefore, in company with others of our kin, towardMacon, where was sojourning our sweet sister, Mrs. HughLawson Clay, at the home of Major Anderson Comer, herfather. Thence it was proposed I should proceed with herlater to Richmond under the escort of Colonel Clay.


That winter the weather was peculiarly cold, so much sothat on the plantations where wheat had been sown, a fearwas general lest the grain be killed in the ground. The journeyto Macon, therefore, was anything but comfortable, but ithadits amusing sides nevertheless. We were a party of women.


OUR stay in Macon, where it had been my intention toremain but a few weeks, lengthened into months; for, upon hisarrival in Richmond, Senator Clay found the conditions such asto render my joining him, if not impracticable, at leastinadvisable. The evils of a year agone had multiplied tenfold.Food was growing scarcer; the city's capacity was tested to theuttermost, and lodgings difficult to obtain. The price of boardfor my husband alone now amounted to more than his income.Feeling in legislative circles was tense, the times engenderinga troublesome discontent and strife among eager and anxiouspoliticians. Complaints from the army poured in. Our soldierswere suffering the harshest deprivations. Wearing apparelwas scarce. Many of our men marched in ragged and weather-stained garments and tattered shoes, and even these wereluxuries that threatened soon to be unattainable. Our treasurywas terribly depleted, and our food supply for the army wasdiminishing at a lamentable rate.


The cleansing of the dreadful wound was a terrible ordeal.For days the patient raved, and to us, just from the camps andhospitals of Virginia, his frenzied words conveyed most vividpictures of the experiences our men were meeting in the deadlyfray. 2ff7e9595c
