On January % 1879, Hamilton writes
a letter from New York to Harrison Gray
OTIS in which these remarkable thoughts
occur: LAS il is every moment possible
that the project OF taking possession of
the Tloridas and Louisiana lon since at
tributed TO France, may be attempted to
be put in execution it is very important
that the Executive should be clothed with
power to meet and defeat so dangerous
an enterprise Indeed, if it is the policy
of France to leave US in a state of semi
hostility, It's preferable to terminate it,
and by taking possession of those coun-
tries for ourselves tc obviate the mis-
chief of their falling into the hands of
an active foreign power. and at the same

touching reference TO the training given
him by his mother. and among othei
things he said that at her knee he had
been taught the first principles of tree

exclaimed. in an impassoned manner.
Il learned at my mothers knee nooier

both a physical and an intellectual giant.
He is a terror in debate. and many tunes
in his distinguished career he has iiayeo
his opponents at the bar. He ranks well
up to the front as criminal advocate
and has been engaged in many famous
trials in his time, but his greatest DIS
attorney. He is member Of the law
firm OF Leake and Carter, of this ctE,
which ranks as one of the strongest IN

looked upon as one Of the great leaders
in the convention. He is man VINO

profession. He is at home in scrap
and really delights in getting after his

He is a thorough master Of the art OF

He was placed on leading committees

cuniarily the convention has resulted in
