Excerpt from Speech (Suppressed by the Previous Question) Of Mr. John Quincy Adams, of Massachusetts, on the Removal of the Public Deposites, and Its ReasonsI feel myself, therefore, under an obligation of irremissible duty to ask the indulgence of the House for a few remarks upon the question now before them. I cannot promise to shed any new light upon the subject, but, if I do but repeat that which has been better said before, I will at least endeavor to avoid any repetition which will not carry its apology in the importance of the principle to which it will appeal.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
