7658. ROANE (Spencer), Courage of.—

Against this [consolidation] I know no one
who, equally with Judge Roane himself, possesses
the power and the courage to make resistance;
and to him I look, and have long
looked, as our strongest bulwark.—
To Archibald Thweat. Washington ed. vii, 199. Ford ed., x, 184.
