Excerpt from The Life of Silas Wright
The biography of silas wright can be but little more than the political history of the State and Nation for the last twenty-five years. His life was spent in the service of his country - not in a sphere requiring the exhibition of military capacity, or physical daring and fortitude, but in one demanding, at least, as high an order of talent, and far more of those nobler quali ties, which so exalt and dignify the human character.
