Item #HL654
Harbour Lights 2002 Event Exclusive!"Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear -- not absence of fear." -- Mark Twain To celebrate the 100th Anniversary of Mark Twain's birth, a lighthouse was erected on Cardiff Hill near Twain's boyhood home in Hannibal. Dedicated in 1935, President Franklin D. Roosevelt turned on the light all the way from the nation's capital, pressing a gold key that was connected to telegraph lines. The original intention was for the light to burn during the yearlong celebration. But the popular sentinel remained a local favorite, so it continued to shine on. President John F. Kennedy rededicated the beacon in 1963 and President Bill Clinton did the same in 1994. It holds the distinction of being located further inland than any other lighthouse in the world. This unique landmark in Hannibal is a special place to visit. There is something quaint and familiar about the charming lighthouse. Near the water' s edge, one can easily imagine the sound of a paddleboat floating by. A light breeze can bring the scent of freshly baked cornbread. You can envision a young man piloting a river raft. You can touch the moist earth. You can sense the history. |
