Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life and Public Services of William Pitt Fessenden, Vol. 2 of 2 When Mr. Fessenden was appointed to the Treasury, his second term in the Senate was drawing to a close. He was to be a candidate for reelection before the next legislature. No contest was expected and no other candidate was mentioned at this time, but the Republican Convention nominated Andrew Johnson for Vice-President instead of renominating Hannibal Hamlin of Maine. At the time of those nominations, Mr. Fessenden had no idea of ever being the Secretary of the Treasury. It was some time before Mr. Chase´s resignation. But as soon as Mr. Fessenden had been appointed secretary, the friends of Mr. Hamlin began to talk of him as Mr. Fessenden´s successor in the Senate. Mr. Hamlin was extremely popular in the State, a splendid public man of the finest abilities and character. He had many devoted admirers, and they ardently desired to keep him in public life. They argued that the country needed Mr. Fessenden at the head of the Treasury, and that Mr. Hamlin should be restored to the Senate, and thus both gentlemen could be retained in the public service.
