7144. RANDOLPH (Edmund), Indecisiveness.—

Everything [in the cabinet] hangs upon the opinion of a single person
[Edmund Randolph] and that the most indecisive
one I ever had to do business with. He
will always contrive to agree in principle with
one but in conclusion with the other.—
To James Madison. Washington ed. iii, 556.
