Synopsis
Excerpt from An Inquiry Into the Formation of Washington's Farewell Address
Alty, but just such a contribution on each side, if there were two contributing parties, as would leave to the principal party the merit and the responsibility of the fundamental thoughts, and to the other the merit of expanding, defending, and presenting them in the most suitable form, a task which public engagements, or a particular turn of mind, may have made unusual to the one, while it was habitual and easy to the other and that no sense of honor had been wounded, nor any pretension of vanity consulted, by leaving the traces of a joint cc-operation, just as each party has left them. Such as the character of both Washington and Hamilton gave. Assurance that the eo-operation, if it took place, would be, such upon very full examination of the facts, it turns out to have been. The reader will probably regard the character of each, after he has considered the proofs, with as much esteem and admiration as he felt before the fact of co-operation was known to him. It is not improbable that he will regard it with even greater.
