Excerpt from Oration Delivered Before the City Council and Citizens of Boston: On the One Hundred and Twentieth Anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1896 Otis was a ¿ame of fire. With a promptitude of classical allusions, a depth of research, a rapid sum mary of historical events and dates, a profusion of legal authorities, a prophetic glance of his eye into futurity and a torrent of impetuous eloquence, he hurried away everything before him. Every man of a crowded audience appeared to me to go away as I did, ready to take arms against writs of assistance. Then and there was the first scene of the first act of opposition to the arbitrary claims of Great Britain.
