Where I became an American
In Faneuil Hall
“I became an American on Nov. 4, 2010, at an elegant ceremony in the Great Hall of Bullfinch's Faneuil Hall, Boston, beneath a vast painting of Sen. Daniel Webster debating the preservation of the Union with Robert Hayne of South Carolina {in 1830}.’’
— Nigel Hamilton (born 1944), British-born historian
The Massachusetts senator’s speech is considered by many to be the greatest in U.S. Senate history.
