which, now undiminished, I have ever en-
tertained for YOU, that your request on this
subject has placed me in the most difficult

i fed YOU do not realize it. I have given il
4 the most serious consideration, both on your
and nv account, and especially on account
of the gravity and Importance of the
subjects presented. The result of that
consideration is, that having been COM
PEELED, as member of the Senate, tc
] take an oath to try this case and to do i'm
i partial Justice. according to the law and
i the evidence, I cannot now honorably escape
4 the duties imposed by the obligation. II
was for the House of Representatives te
prefer articles of impeachment. It is fol
4 the Senate to try them, and the members Of
the House have no more right to dictate Of
control the Judgment of the Senate in the
premises than members Of grand jury
presenting on Indictment have to dictate OF
i influence the yerdictof the petit jury or
1 the trial of crime and I do not thus speak
4 for the purpose of rejecting on your action
4 for I distinctly disclaim such purpose
knowing as do that what you have done
