Excerpt from Recollections of the Life of the Late Right Honorable Charles James Fox: Exhibiting a Faithful Account of the Most Remarkable Events of His Political Career, and a Delineation of His Character as a Statesman, Senator,& Man of Fashion; Comprehending Numerous Anecdotes of His Public and Private Life; And an Accurate Description The author of the following pages has not the presumption to present them to the public as containing a complete and finished biography of the distinguished character of whom they treat. He knows how impossible it would be to do justice, in the compass within which he has limited his labors, to a man who, for so many years, has filled such a considerable space in the political history of this country. His object was rather to exhibit such traits of his private character, and to rescue from oblivion such facts, as are calculated to inform and to interest not only the statesman and politician, but every one who is endued with the feelings of a man. Some, there probably are, and among the rest the more immediate friends of Mr. Fox, who may probably be disposed to censure the author for introducing into these Sketches various circumstances which are far from reflecting credit either on his morals or his principles.
