Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Henry Laurens: With a Sketch of the Life of Lieutenant-Colonel John Laurens All dates previous to September 3, 1752, the first day of the corrected calendar, and called September 14, are either marked Old Style or are corrected to New Style except in the case of letters, statutes, etc., whose dates are always quoted as in the original for convenience in reference. The year is, of course, also corrected for all dates between January Ist and March 24th, inclusive, before 1753. This may lead at times to apparent contradiction, as most writers on South Carolina history have not corrected the dates. I consider that it is essential to do so in order to be on the same basis as the rest of the world. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

CHAPTER XIX THE CONWAY CABAL, 1777-78 THE conspiracy for the displacement of Washington and distribution of honors and emoluments to Gates and his associates known as the Conway Cabal ran its course through Congress during the same months of 1777-8 which were occupied with the Saratoga Convention. A review of the factions which existed in Congress will help us to understand this as well as other political tangles through which we must pass.1 There early appeared in Congress two roughly defined party groups. One, on account of its passionate attachment to a pronounced form of republicanism, scented danger from military power and executive domination, and in their dread of these sought to keep all executive business in the hands of Congress through committees and boards and strove for a strict system of control over the Commander-in-Chief. The policy of these, for the most part disinterested but often impractical patriots, must be ranked high among the causes which imperilled the success of the Revolution. At its core was the "family compact" of the Lees and Adamses. They constituted what Wharton aptly calls the "expulsive," or "liberative," party, from their zeal being so absorbed with this end as to blind them to the necessity of efficient administrative and military machinery. Prominent among the leaders of the other, called by Wharton the "constructive" party, were Washington, Franklin, Jay, Robert R. Livingston, and Robert Morris, men who had 'Wharton in his Diplomatic Correspondence of the American Revolution, i., 252 et passim, gives an excellent account of the factional lines and con. tests in Congress, which is here followed. not been so active as the others in bringing on the trouble with the mother country, but who showed...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concluding volume of a prestigious documentary edition; This, the sixteenth and final volume of The Papers of Henry Laurens, covers the last ten years of the statesman's life. During this period, Henry Laurens spent a hectic twenty-two months as a peace commissioner traveling between Paris and London, conferring with British ministers and his colleagues on the peace commission. At the same time, Laurens was coping with the grief of losing his eldest son, John Laurens, in battle, family conflicts over a proposed marriage between his elder daughter and a French fortune hunter, and his own poor health. This mixture of public and private concerns continued throughout his stay in Europe, as the commissioners attempted to negotiate a final peace treaty and a trade agreement with former allies and foes. In January 1785, Laurens returned to South Carolina, where he devoted the remainder of his life to personal affairs. Despite encouragement to return to public service, Laurens remained a private citizen with an active interest in the progress of his state, In his later years he recommended an end to the importation of slaves and diversification of the economy. Laurens died on December

Download or read book The Life of John Marshall written by Albert Jeremiah Beveridge and published by Cosimo, Inc.. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 573 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Marshall (1755-1835) became the fourth chief justice of the U.S. Supreme Court despite having had almost no formal schooling and after having studied law for a mere six weeks. Nevertheless, Marshall remains the only judge in American history whose distinction derives almost entirely from his judicial career. During Marshall's nearly 35-year tenure as chief justice, he wielded the Constitution's awe-inspiring power aggressively and wisely, setting the Supreme Court on a course for the ages by ensuring its equal position in the triumvirate of the federal government of the United States and securing its role as interpreter and enforcer of the Constitution. Marshall's judicial energies were as unflagging as his vision was expansive. This four-volume life of Marshall received wide acclaim upon its initial publication in 1920, winning the Pulitzer Prize that year, and makes fascinating reading for the lawyer, historian, and legal scholar.
