Overview

Excerpt from Cases Argued and Adjudged in the Supreme Court of the United States, Vol. 2: October Term, 1875 Beginning his Ictice here in early life, he became the worthy succes sor of Harper, Martin, Pinkney, and Wirt, men who added so much to the glory of the Old Maryland. And considering the extent and variety of his practice; his natural resources and professional attainments; his thorough self-possession and steadiness of nerve, when the skill of an Opponent unexpectedly brought on the crisis of a great trial, - an opportunity for feeble men to lose first themselves and then their cause; his fidelity to the oath which was anciently administered to all the lawyers of England, - to present nothing false, but to make war for their clients; the audacity of his valor when the fate of his client was trembling in the balance, he believing his client to be right, while every one else believed him to be wrong; - remembe1ing all these traits, we must rank him with the greatest lawyers and advocates of this or any other country.
