Memoirs of Aaron Burr, Vol. 2 of 2: With Miscellaneous Selections From His Correspondence (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Colonel Burr sstudy of the law has been already briefly noticed. He brought to that study a classic education as complete as could, at that time, be acquired in our country; and to this was added a knowledge of the world, perhaps nowhere better taught than in the camp, as well as a firmness and hardihood of character which military life usually confers, and which is indispensable to the success of the forensic lawyer. He was connected in the family circle with twoj eminent jurists, who were at hand to stimulate his young ambition, and to pour, in an almost perpetual stream, legal knowledge into his mind, by conversation and by epistolary correspondence. The time he spent in his studies preparatory to his admission would be considered short at the present day; but (to use the language of another) it is to be recollected that at that time there were no voluminous treatises upon the mere routine of practice For the remarks which I am now about to present to the reader I am principally indebted to two highly intelligent members of the bar. Either of whom is fully competent to a development of Colonel Burr slegal character ;and neither of whom would be disqualified by any prejudices in his favour. These gentlemen, it is believed, entertained different views as to the practical value of that species of reading which is necessary to form what is by some termed a truly learned lawyer. f Colonel Burr sbrother-in-law, Judge Tappan Reeve, and his uncle, Pierpont Edwards.
