More from George F. Hoar
His life, so far as he took part in political affairs, was devoted to objects wholly public, never personal.
Judge Hoar never doubted that the service of a clean, able, upright Circuit Court, appointed without political influence, and entirely acceptable to the public, was well worth the sacrifice.
The large majority was made up of sensible, strong-headed country farmers, rather slow in making up their minds, but making them up always on considerations of what was best for the Commonwealth.
He proceeded to attack, to promote his own ambitions, the fair name and fame of the Commonwealth itself.
