"My grandfather was Mayor of the city of Boston."
"So I am proud to be in this very ancient city, in this hall, which is connected with so much that was distinguished in history many years ago with lost causes like the one in 1848."
"I want to express my very warm appreciation to you, Mr. Mayor, for your generous welcome."
"I want to express my special thanks to my countrymen who serve the United States over 3,500 miles from our own shores."
