"One of life's most comforting extras is love of the land…I see here the same land which the Northrop Family knew for nearly two centuries…I feel close to the America I knew in days gone by and because I feel free here…I feel the love of those whom I have known there which today still gives me a feeling of confidence, protection and peace."
