1676 - L. Jan. 20; ed:2/3 - Davis of Kentucky is below medium height,
70 years of age, his voice is harsh, and his physical powers are fail-
ing. He is prone to similes. He professes to be a Union man in favor
of putting down the Rebellion by force of arms. "Like a political
character portrayed in one of Dickens' works, he believes in opposing
everything just for the sake of belonging to the opposition side." (4)
