It is not known exactly how or upon what authority the North Carolina con- tention started, but the first mention of it seems to have appeared early in 1815 in the Richmond (Va. ) Inquirer. As early as 1820, how- ever, the House of Representatives of South Carolina, in accepting a marble bust of General Jackson, presented to the State Library, de- clared, by a formal legislative act: "We, as Carolinians, have a still more happy reason for gratu- lation that he, whose nativity has been the cause... of rivalry for contending States, is acknowledged as our own. " So far as is known, the personal statement by Jackson himself as to the State of his nativity was never once contradicted or impeached during his lifetime. There is indisputable evidence that on, at least, seven different occasions he claimed, in writing, that South Cai'olina was his native State. In his last will, dated June 7, 1843, nearly a generation after the Battle of New Orleans was fought, and when the question of nativity would seem to have had ample time to solve itself, he distinctly avows, with all the solemnity attending a testamentaiy paper, that South Carolina was his native State.
