Candle stand used by George Washington while writing the Farewell Address, 1796
Washington, George
Farewell Address was Washington's final advice to his countrymen. He urged all Americans to support the newly formed nation and put aside regional or party divisions. "Your Union ought to be considered as a main prop of your liberty, the love of the one ought to endear to you the preservation of the other."
