talent and character than have seen in Con-
gress. Bradish, and kechum, aud Hugh Maxwell,
were among the delegates from this state. John
Sergeant, and Josiah Randall, and Dillingham; were
among the delegates from Pennsylvania Strong
delegations were there from New England, among
whom were Alexander II. Everett and General
Dearborn of Massachusetts, and John Brown Fran
