test and who. as early as the first Congress after
the passage of the Stamp Act wrote and re-
ported as delegate from South Carolina one of
the addresses of the Colonies TO the imperial
Parliament. Mr. Quincy. coming by land from

on South Sanee, then and now called Peach
Tree. After communicating his mission. which
met with the warm concurrence of my distin-
guished relative, they both instantly started for
Charleston. and in the hpnse of Miles Brcwton.

utmost evaporation.

although born in South Carolina he was cduca-
