George Wythe was one of
the very few (for I can barely speak of them
in the plural number) * * * who from the
commencement of the [Revolutionary] contest,
hung our connection with Great Britain on its

character, however, made him appear
as a follower, while his sound judgment kept
him in a line with the freest spirit.—
