Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memorial Addresses on the Life and Character of Isham G. Harris: Late a Senator From Tennessee Mr. Bate. Mr. President, it becomes my painful duty this morning to announce to the Senate the death of my colleague, and as a mark of respect I shall at the proper time make a motion for an adjournment, and will at some future time ask that a day be set apart specially for tributes to be delivered by Senators on his life and character. A conspicuous figure, Mr. President, and a familiar one, identified as an active and influential factor in the history of this Chamber and of the country, is no longer one of us. Isham Green Harris for more than twenty years sat in this Chamber as a Senator from Tennessee, and for the last ten years it has been my honor and pleasure to be associated with him as his colleague. He died last evening at his residence in sight of this Capitol at an advanced age; an age, however, which he ever kept green and bright and buoyant until prostrated by his recent illness. Tennessee and the entire country mourn his loss. The individual man and his personal characteristics are abundantly known to Senators who surround me, as they are to Tennesseeans and to the general constituency.
