Famous quotes containing the words laurence and/or tribe:

    And catch the gleaming of a random light,
    That tells me that the ship I seek is passing, passing.
    —Paul Laurence Dunbar (1872–1906)

    It appeared that he had once represented his tribe at Augusta, and also once at Washington, where he had met some Western chiefs. He had been consulted at Augusta, and gave advice, which he said was followed, respecting the eastern boundary of Maine, as determined by highlands and streams, at the time of the difficulties on that side. He was employed with the surveyors on the line. Also he called on Daniel Webster in Boston, at the time of his Bunker Hill oration.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
