Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life Sketches of Executive Officers and Members of the Legislature of the State of New York: For 1873 A certain Englishman, who was either over sensitive, or over surly, or both, once expressed himself to the effect that when he pondered on the fact that, after giving up the ghost, he would be called upon to figure In certain Life Sketches of the period known as "The Lives of the Chancellors," death seemed clothed with exceptional terror. The present biographers sincerely hope that no member of the current State Government or Legislature of New York will find the harden of public life heavier than "It might have been," but for his allotment in the pages that follow. Let us, rather, fortified by a modest boldness, be confident that the general verdict shall pronounce our little work as valuable for reference, and a pleasant remembrancer of those who figured In public life at the Capital of the Empire State in the year of our Lord 1878. The publication of Life Sketches has been suspended since 1870, and the present resumption is owing to the encouragement the editors have received from those whom the project concerns. The sketches have been prepared in the Intervals of engrossing reportorial labors, and have all been written since the commencement of the present session of the Legislature. Great care has been taken, however, to avoid errors either of fact or date, and also to render the information given as complete as possible within the limits prescribed by taste, propriety and the scope of the work. It will be seen that the sketches of the Members of the Legislature ore alphabetically arranged, thus removing the necessity for an index. The editors, as a last word, desire to express their thanks to all those who have in any way co-operated for the success of their venture.
