Why cannot you get up such a paper? Thaddeus Stevens. Col. A. K. McClure. 270 LINCOLN AND MEN OF WAR- TLMES. at his quiet mountain-furnace home in Franklin count>', where I resided, and during the few years that I was in active practice at the bar in Chambersburg he attended our courts and tried one side of nearly ever}- important cause. In all my acquaintance with the law}-ers of Pennsylvania I regard Stevens as having more nearly completed the circle of a great law}'er than any other member o...f the Pennsylvania bar. He was perfect in practice, a master of the law, exceptionally skillful in eliciting testimony from witnesses, a most sagacious, elo- quent, and persuasive advocate, and one of the strongest men before a law court that I have ever heard. He was thoroughly master of himself in his profession, and his withering invective and crushing wit, so often employed in conversation and in political speeches, were never dis- played in the trial of a cause unless it was eminently wise to do so; and he was one of the most courteous of men at the bar whether associate or opponent.
