J. Crittenden. ) Washington, December 31, 1846. My dear Crittenden, — The scene of yesterday in the Senate, and the part you bore in it, have dwelt upon my mind, my heart, and my memory, the whole time, as it were, burned in all with a brand at white heat. You know me well enough to know that I never flatter my friends, — I have not flattered you. I will therefore say that the more I know of you, the more I respect and love you. I would not exchange such a heart as yours, were it mine or my fri...end's, for one that the world would ordinarily call good, and for all your high and brilliant eloquence and undoubted abilities. Could our excellent and lamented friend Barrow have wit- nessed the scene, his high and noble soul would for such a tribute have been almost willing to meet his fate, premature, as we short-sighted mortals regard it, for himself, for his family, and for his country. Your friend, To the Hon. J. J. Crittenden. Willie J. Mangum. (G. B. Kinkead to J. J. Crittenden. ) Frankfort, Ky.
