XI
And so my little story of Pittsburgh comes to an end.
It is the story of a great achievement in the building of a city, and the development of a community within its boundaries.
I have sometimes heard a sneer at Pittsburgh as a place where undigested wealth is paramount.
I have never beheld the city in that character.
On the contrary, I have, on frequent occasions, seen the assemblage of men native here where a goodly section of the brain and power of the nation was represented.
There is much wealth here, but the dominant spirit of those who have it is not a spirit of pride and luxury and arrogance.
There is much poverty here, but it is the poverty of hope which effort and opportunity will transform into affluence.
And especially is there here a spirit of good fellowship, of help one to another, and of pride in the progress of the intellectual life.
And with all of these comes a growth toward the best civic character which in its aggregate expression is probably like unto the old Prophet's idea of that righteousness which exalteth a nation.

Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg Project Gutenberg is synonymous with the free distribution of electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.
It exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from people in all walks of life.
Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg’s goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg collection will remain freely available for generations to come.
In 2001, the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure and permanent future for Project Gutenberg and future generations.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation Project Gutenberg™ depends upon and cannot survive without widespread public support and donations to carry out its mission of increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the widest array of equipment including outdated equipment.
Many small donations ( to ,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt status with the IRS.

Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up with these requirements.

Section 5.
General Information About Project Gutenberg electronic works Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared with anyone.
For forty years, he produced and distributed Project Gutenberg eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
Project Gutenberg eBooks are often created from several printed editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in the U. S.
unless a copyright notice is included.
Thus, we do not necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
