This book was released on 2018-03-11 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Character of Stephen Girard, of the City of Philadelphia, in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Mariner and Merchant: With an Appendix Descriptive of Girard College Any one, says Professor Wagner in his first lec ture upon Girard, who will read this biography of Mr. Girard, which I thus publicly pronounce a tissue of lies, sticking out on every page, will perceive that the whole account is embittered and venomous, and that the author has tortured his imagination to find an opportunity to falsify and pervert. Now, before dilating upon it, let us inquire for a moment who this biographer was. When the charter of the old Bank of the United States expired and Mr. Girard purchased the building, establishing in it his own Bank, he appointed George Simpson, the cashier of the former institution, to the same position in his new concern. Stephen Simpson was the son of this latter, and, with Mr. Girard's consent, was appointed by his father to the situation of clerk in the Bank, in which position he continued until the death of his father. Stephen then aspired to the cashiership that his father had held, but, unfortunately for him, Joseph Roberts, the first teller, stood between him and the coveted office. Mr. Girard had confidence in Roberts, but very little in Simpson, the result being that the former received the appointment, and the latter became thereupon the uncompromising enemy of Mr. Girard. This feeling of resentment having been reinforced by the punishment of a reduction of salary upon the occasion of Simpson's assault upon a fellow-bookkeeper in the Bank,1 every invention of fancy and perversion of facts has been resorted to by him to injure the reputation and tarnish the fame of that benevolent man - with which statement before you, for the truth of which I vouch, can you expect a calm or dispassionate narrative from a biographer so influenced? As well might you expect clear water from a muddy pool. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Times of Stephen Girard, Vol. 1: Mariner and Merchant Stephen girard by will bequeathed to the Common wealth of Pennsylvania and to the City of Phila delphia cash and real estate amounting in 1831 to over Never before had a private citizen of the United States bequeathed so vast a sum for the public good. By careful management the invested capital of the various trust funds created by his will now amounts to over Despite the great benefit the City has received from the income of these trust funds, and the community from the education of orphan boys in the College, no biography of Stephen Girard has hitherto been written, although he has been 86 years in his grave. A few sketches have been published, and a book by Stephen Simpson was issued immediately after the death of Girard in 1831. The author was one time a clerk in Girard's Bank, and, disappointed and disgruntled because he was not made cashier, avenged himself by writing a biography, false by deliberate intent and by lack of information.
