Book Description
Excerpt from Address of State Historian of Georgia, Hon. Lucian Lamar Knight, in the State Capitol November 25th, 1916 On the dome of this capitol, emblematic of Georgia's gov erning genius, stands the statue of a woman. Lifted above the hurrying crowds which throng our streets, that sym bolie figure maintains its serene poise in the chastened silence of a heavenly ether. To the wise and to the simple, to the erudite scholar and to the unlettered rustic, it speaks a message which all interpret alike - namely this: that the hand which trains the childhood of our state lifts its torch of liberty aloft and that she who rocks the cradle rules the commonwealth.
