Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sketch of the Life and Public Services of Gen. Lewis Cass Lewis Cass was born at Exeter, in New Hampshire, on the 9th day of October, 1782. His father, Major Jonathan Cass, was a soldier of the Revolution, who enlisted as a private the day after the battle of Lexington. He served in the army till the close of the war, and was in all the important battles in the Eastern and Middle States, where he was distinguished for his valor and good conduct, and attained the rank of captain. He was afterwards a major in Wayne's army, and died at an advanced age, after a life of usefulness and honor, at his residence, near Dresden, in Muskingum county, Ohio. His son Lewis Cass, the subject of this biography, emigrated, at the of seventeen, to the then Northwestern Territory, and settled first at Marriet a; in the county of Washington. He was thus, as he was recently called by the convention of Ohio, one of the 'early pioneers' of that immense western region, which has already risen to such a magnitude in our own days, and is destined to attain one so much greater hereafter. The country north of the Ohio then contained one Territory and about twenty thousand people. Mr Cass bore his full shares in the toils privations, and dangers to which the defence of a new country, and its conversion from a primitive forest to the happy abodes of civilized man, are necessarily exposed. He read law at Marietta, and was admitted to the bar before the close of the Territorial Government. He commenced the practice, and, as was the custom then, visited the courts in a large district of the country, travelling on horseback, and encountering many difficulties unknown to the members of the bar at the present day. In 1806, he was elected a member of the Legislature of Ohio, and during the session he took his part the business of the day. He drafted the law which arrested the traitorous designs of Burr, and introduced an address to Mr Jefferson, which was unanimously adopted, expressing the attachment of the people of Ohio to the Constitution of the United States, as their confidence in that illustrious man. In March, 1807, he was appointed, by Mr Jefferson, marshal oi Ohio. In execution of the duties of that office, in the business of his profession, and in the occupation of a farm in Muskingum county, where he resided, he passed his time until 1812. Then our difficulties with England assumed a portentous aspect. Her multiplied aggressions left us no recourse but war; and the statesmen of the day prepared for it with firmness. As one of the preparatory arrangements, it was determined to march a considerable force to the northwestern frontier, to be ready for offensive or defensive measures, as circumstances might render it necessary. The command was given lo General Hull; and a regiment of regular troops, which had fought with credit at Tippecanoe, was assigned to him. To this were to be added three regiments of Ohio volunteers. As soon as this demand upon their patriotism was known, the citizens of that State hastened to the call of their country, and the force was raised without delay or difficulty. Mr Cass was among the volunteers, and was elected to the command of the third regiment. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sketch of the Life and Services of General Lewis Cass, of Ohio The father of General Cass was a native of New Hampshire, who entered the army as a private soldier the day after the battle of Lexington, and remained in the service during the whole war, till the dissolution of the army. He rose successively through the grades of corporal, sergeant, ensign, and lieutenant, to be captain, and was in the battles of Bunker Hill, Long Island, Monmouth, Brandywine, Germantown, in the expedition of Sullivan, in the actions between Gates and Burgoyne, and at the Siege of Yorktown. After the organization of the new constitution, he was appointed a major in the western army, and served under St. Clair and Wayne, till the year 1800, when he resigned and resigned to private life, upon the Muskingum, when he closed his useful and honorable career in the year 1830. A just tribute to his merit was paid upon two public occasions by two of the most distinguished literary men, who do honor to our country. By Mr. Everett in his remarks at Boston, upon the occasion of the visit of General Jackson, and recently by Mr. Bancroft, in a lecture at Philadelphia, when this accomplished historian turned to General Cass, who was present, and in an extemporaneous and most happy allusion, brought to notice the character and patriotic services of his father. His son, Lewis Cass, was born at Exeter, New Hampshire, where he was educated by a celebrated teacher, Doctor Abbot. At the age of seventeen he left that place and removed to Marietta, in the State of Ohio, where he studied law, and was admitted to the Bar, at the very close of the Territorial govern-vernment. After being admitted, he practised law at Marietta, Chilicothe, Zanesville, and other places, till the year 1806, when he was elected a member of the Legislature. He served during the eventful session, when the plans of Burr occupied so much of the public attention. There was a mystery about them which alarmed the general government exceedingly, and in fact, every man said to his neighbor, what is the object of all this, and who are engaged in it? Some thought the design was to sever the western from the Eastern States, and others that it was to take possession of New Orleans, seize the specie there, and push on to Mexico, to conquer that Kingdom. The alarm of Mr. Jefferson may be imagined from the fact, that he sent a special agent, Mr. Graham, to the Western States, to put himself in communication with the Executives and Legislatures, and to urge upon them the most prompt and vigilant measures for the defeat of the enterprise. Among other extraordinary powers granted upon this occasion was one to Mr. Tiffin, then Governor of Ohio, authorising him to remove "any postmaster west of the mountains, suspected of being unfriendly to the unity of this Republic." A special message from the Governor to the Legislature, brought this matter before them - and Mr. Cass was placed upon the committee to which it was referred. This committee put themselves in communication with Mr. Graham and Mr. Cass, drafted a law, which authorised the Governor to call out the militia, and to arrest all persons engaged in any warlike enterprise. The promptness of the Legislature was met by the spirit of the public. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
