Kentuckys New State Capitol Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from The Kentuckians: A Knight of the Cumberland HE people of the little Kentucky capital do not often honor the gray walls of their state-house. The legislators play small part in the social life of the town. A member must have blood, as well as gifts unusual, who can draw from the fine Old homes a people with a full cen tury of oratory and social distinction behind them, and, further back, the proud traditions of Virginia. For years young Marshall was the first to quite fill the measure, and he was to speak that afternoon. The ladies' gallery was full, and the Governor's daughter, Anne, sat midway. About her was a sudden flutter and a leaning for ward when Marshall strode a little consciously down the aisle and took his seat. When he rose to speak, the quick silence of the House was a tribute to thrill him. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
