To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Upon the record of its votes and the expression of opinion by its own members, the Senate was in the wrong. The history of every pre- ceding Administration and of every subsequent Administration of the Federal Government proves that the Senate was in the wrong. The situation in which the President was left by this action was anomalous and embarrassing. One of the most important Depart- ments of the Government — especially important at that era — was left under the control of a man with whom he ...did not even hold personal relations. If this could be done in one Department it could with equal justice be done in all, and the extraordinary spec- tacle would be presented of each Executive Department under the control of an officer, who in matters of personal feeling and in public policy was deadly hostile to the President of the United States. REMOVAL OF SECRETARY STANTON. 355 Even those who insisted most warmly upon Mr. Stanton's being retained in his position, must have seen that such a course would contradict the theory of the National Constitution and be in direct contravention of the practice of the Federal Government.
