The Forgotten Founding Father- Noah Webster - Plot & Excerpts

1. The act of soliciting favor. Swift. 2. The act of wooing in love; solicitation of a woman to marriage. Dryden. 3. Civility; elegance of manners. Obs. Donne.
After finishing a series of lectures in Albany, Webster returned to Connecticut, arriving back in Hartford on May 27. Two days later, he dined with Joel Barlow. On May 30, he rode on to the West Division and was reunited with his family. That evening, he wrote in his diary, “Meet my friends with joy.”
Webster immediately made arrangements to take his lecture tour around his native New England. His primary objective was to raise the funds needed to print new editions of The Grammatical Institute. And by fraternizing with the community leaders and school officials who attended his talks, as well as the booksellers who sold the tickets, he also hoped to boost sales. While Webster would still focus on the future of American education, he would now also share the experiences and factoids that he had gathered during his visits to other parts of the country.
