The Diary of an Old Lawyer: Or Scenes Behind the Curtain (Classic Reprint)

Tennessee, the Author loves with filial devotion all that relates to the achievement of her sons. A galaxy of noble and chivalrous characters, laborers in every department of human greatness, fill and crown the Pantheon builded by her sons, in every era since her Commonwealth Builder crossed the mountains after the revolution and made Watauga a nucleus of men and principles, from which a great Commonwealth has sprung, second to none in devotion to those great fundamental principles which enfranchise, expand and ennoble man. In -this Guild of Builders, her Bench and Bar have won renown. With Cher, as with every people governed by liberty and law, the Bench and Bar have been the strongest pillars of State. Nashvi Ue, Tenn May 1st, 1895.
