Book Description
Excerpt from Warrington Pen-Portraits: A Collection of Personal and Political Reminiscences From 1848 to 1876, From the Writings of William S. Robinson, With Memoir, and Extracts From Diary and Letters Never Before Published I did not fairly come to know Robinson, however, until we met frequently, from 1858 onward, at the Bird Club in Boston, of which he was one Of the earliest and most con stant members. He used to say that he meant to earn enough by his Warrington letters, which then began to be famous, to pay for his weekly club dinners. But they did more than this they made him SO much a power in Massa chusetts, that when the time came, in 1860, for his table companions of the Bird Club to take control Of political afi'airs in this Commonwealth, he was found to be among the most important of their number. He entered, wit-h Sumner, Andrew, Wilson, Bird, the Howes, Clafiin, Wright, Stearns, and the rest, into that council Of friends, which, until it was broken by time and chance which happeneth to all, gave wise and brave direction to the policy of Massachusetts both in state and national afiairs. This unrecognized cabinet, composed of both Official and unofficial persons, came into power with Gov. Andrew in 1860 - 61 and its last powerful stroke was the defeat of Butler for governor in 1871 In the ten intervening years, the pen of Warrington was as potent as any Single influence, except the great soul Of Sumner and the great heart of Andrew, in maintaining the steady course Of Massachusetts on all grave issues.
