Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Thomas Walton Patton, Born May 8th, 1841, Died November 6th, 1907: A Biographical Sketch The mother and younger brothers with one sister followed James into North Carolina and eventually to Asheville; Jane, the young sister, married Col. Andrew Erwin, and later moved to Tennessee. To quote from the autobiography of James Patton, "Col. Erwin and myself were in partnership for twenty years and made a complete dissolution in one day, to the astonishment of every person of understanding. As he was the active partner, I told him to make a division of the whole, accompanied with a statement on paper, and give me my choice, which he did; and in this way we came to an amicable settlement at once." Jane Patton Erwin´s daughter, Jane, married first, Thomas Yeatman of Nashville and was the mother of James Erwin Yeatman of St. Louis, the hero of Winston Churchill´s book, "The Crisis." After Mr. Yeatman´s death she married Hon. John Bell, then Speaker of the House of Representatives in Congress, afterwards Secretary of War, and later the candidate for the Presidency when Lincoln was elected in 1860. Had the advocates of "Bell and Everett" been successful in electing them the war would probably have been averted and some amicable adjustment of the difficulties between the sections reached. The other sister married a Mr. Campbell, of Pennsylvania. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
