Opis: Sketch of the Life and Public Services of Edward D. Baker - Wallace Jos;

Excerpt from Sketch of the Life and Public Services of Edward D. Baker: United States Senator Form Oregon, and Formerly Representative in Congress From Illinois, Who Died in Battle Near Leesburg, Va;, October 21, A. D. 1861

From time immemorial, it has been a custom with the noble fraternity of authors, whenever they offered a new book to the reading public, to preface it with such remarks, explanatory and apologetic, as might be deemed best to secure the favorable attention of that public. In accordance with this time-honored usage, the writer of the present sketch, before introducing his hero directly to the reader, begs leave to offer a word of explanation.

The principal portion of the following memoir, with others of eminent Illinoisans, was prepared, by the writer, about the close of our late civil war, with the view to a joint publication; but that idea having been. temporarily abandoned, he now offers this little work to the public in a separate form.
