Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Eulogium: Upon the Hon. William Tilghman, Late Justice of Pennsylvania Dear Sir, Immediately after the death of Chief Justice Tilghman, the Members of the Bar expressed a wish that an Eulogium should be pronounced upon his character; and having passed a Resolution to that effect, they appointed a Committee to make the necessary arrangements. We now request that you will suffer us to impose the duty upon you; feeling as we sincerely do, that we shall thus gratify the anxious desire of our professional brethren, and that justice will be fully done to the merits of the deceased. Gentlemen, I am extremely sensible of the honour which you have done to me, by the request communicated in your note of the 7th instant My inability to do justice to the eminent person referred to, ought I fear to deter me from attempting to pourtray his character; but my deep veneration for the virtues and learning of Chief Justice Tilghman, will not permit me, under any sense of my own defects, to question the wishes of my brethren of the Bar.
