Book Description
Excerpt from The Life of Rufus Choate The first edition of the Works of Mr. Choate, with the Memoir of his Life, was early disposed of, and for many years it has been almost impossible to obtain a copy. In the mean time the wish has been frequently expressed that the Life might be republished by itself. In accordance with this desire, the present edition has been prepared. Although in the main unchanged, it will be found to contain some additions in the form of letters, reminiscences, and selections from the writings of Mr. Choate.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Works of Rufus Choate, Vol. 1 of 2: With a Memoir of His Life When first requested to prepare a sketch of the life of Mr. Choate, I was not ignorant of the difficulty of writing it so as to present a fair and complete portraiture - the traits of his character were so peculiar, its lights and shades so delicate, various, and evanescent. The difficulty has not grown less as I have proceeded with the work, and no one, I think, can be so well aware as I am, of its insufficiency.

Biographical Sketches of Rufus Choate (Classic Reprint)

Book Description
Excerpt from Biographical Sketches of Rufus Choate The first four or five years of his practice was in Danvers, which he twice represented, meanwhile, in the State Legis lature. It should be recorded, however, for the benefit of such as need such a record, that the early success of Rufus Choate in law business was not such as tended very strongly to his encouragement and, during the first two or three years of his practice, it was not unfrequently a subject of serious debate with him whether he had not mistaken his calling, and whether he would not better relinquish his profession, and apply himself to some other occupation. He persevered, however, and at length his great diligence and fidelity, joined with the fame of his eloquence and skill, were rewarded with a full share of business. A most important professional trait of Mr. Choate developed itself in the very early stages of his practice - a trait which proved a permanent character istic throughout his whole brilliant career, and which, doubt less, conduced materially to his distinguished success. We allude here to his marvelous faithfulness to any and every cause which he undertook to manage and defend and that, too, irrespective utterly of its importance or otherwise, or of any recompense or lack of recompense. Before a justice of the peace, in an office not larger than a shoemaker's shop, in defense of some petty offender, he poured forth the same wealth of words and illustrations, of humor and wit, and, in its measure, of learning and argument which, afterward, de lighted the Supreme Court and Senate. Indeed, through out his life, he never reserved his brilliant arguments for a suitable audience. He early made it a rule, for the sake of' increasing his power as an advocate, to argue, at full length, every case he tried, and do his best on every occasion.

Book Description
Excerpt from Address Commemorative of Rufus Choate No man dies wholly, even as to this world. When the soul ascends to another sphere of existence, and the body is placed in the earth to mingle with it once more, there is still something which remains with them whom the departing spirit has left, something which has not gone up out of our sight, nor down into the grave to rest in silence, and decay. It is the growth, the flower and the fruit of the seeds the man was planting in the fields of life as he walked through them; it is the influence and effect of his life. For this is a work which every man must do. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
