ne knows what was the fate of Aaron Burr's daughter,
one of the most appealing figures of her day, a woman made for
happiness, but continually in close touch with tragedy. Wherever her
body may lie, she has her wish. The sound of the eternal waters is the
continuous requiem in her ears. Her secret, if she had one, is washed
away long ere this, and is one with the eternal secrets of the sea. As
to her sin, she had none. Above her memory, since she has no grave,
there might best be inscribed the words she wrote at a time of her own
despair:

"I hope to be happy in the next world, for I have not been
bad in this."

Did the little brook in Tennessee ever find its way down to the sea?
Did it carry a scattered drop of a man's lifeblood, little by little
thinning, thinning on its long journey? Did ever a wandering flake of
ashes, melting, rest on its bosom for so great a journey as that
toward the sea?

Did the sound of a voice in the wilderness, passing across the unknown
leagues, ever reach an ear that heard? Who can tell? Perhaps in the
great ten thousand years such things may be--perhaps deep calls to
deep, and there are no longer sins nor tears.

A million hearth-fires mark the camp-fire trail of Meriwether Lewis.
We own the country which he found, and for which he paid. He sleeps.
Above him stands the monument which his chief assigned to him--his
country. It rises now in glory and splendor, the perfected vision
which he saw.

That is the happy ending of his story--his country! It is ours. As its
title came to us in honor, it is for us to love it honorably, to use
it honorably, and to defend it honorably. None may withstand us while
we hold to his ambitions--while our sons measure to the stature of
such a man.
