Excerpt from Memoir of Sir Brenton Halliburton: Late Chief Justice of the ProvinceThe history of Sir Brenton Halliburton claims the attention of his countrymen. The prominence of his position, the order of his talents, the excellence of his character, and the extraordinary length of his career as a public man, may give an interest to the following memoir of his busy and useful life, which extended over a period of more than fifty years. His early asso ciates had passed away, of the long list of prominent men, with whom he had mingled in public and private, the name of not more than one still living could be pronounced when his life closed. They had dropped off one by one, while he continued to bear the burden of public affairs. As memory recalled the past, or he gazed upon the present, he stood almost alone - the last of that band with whom he had started on the race.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
