Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Vindication of the Hon. Augustin S. Clayton: Against the Aspersions of George R. Gilmer, as Contained in His Sketches of Georgia To the People of Georgia. The reputation of your public men, who have served you in the council or the field, is a common heritage, and I claim the privilege of vindicating the character of one whose memory is cherished with affection, and whose virtues are a never-failing source of admiration. In the exercise of this right I feel that I am doing justice alike to the living and the dead. I scorn to plead the sanctified communities of the grave; I ask no indulgence to the feelings of those who survive; I challenge the strictest scrutiny into his every act, whether official or private; I appeal to his contemporaries at the bar or in the councils of the nation, to speak out, if they know any thing which attaches to his fame, and I call up the records to protect the consistency of his character and the integrity of his life. I have had placed in my hands a book entitled "Sketches of some of the First Settlers of Upper Georgia, of the Cherokees, and the Author," by George R. Gilmer, containing, among other things, a wilful, wanton, and malignant attack upon the character and integrity of Judge Clayton. It is my purpose in this vindication to show the meanness of the assassin and the misrepresentations to which he has resorted.
