Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Charles Carroll of Carrollton, 1737-1832, Vol. 1: With His Correspondence and Public Papers N 1825 the Life Of Richard Henry Lee was dedicated by its author, Richard Henry Lee Of Leesburg, Virginia, to Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, and Charles Carroll, the Surviving Signers Of the Declaration Of Independence. The Virgin ian and the son Of Massachusetts have long been known to the world through voluminous volumes, containing all that they wrote, and portraying all that they achieved on the stage Of American history. But it has not been so with the Marylander. The biography Of Charles Carroll Of Carrollton, the last Of the Signers, has never been fully written. And it is believed that the publication Of his letters and papers, with a detailed account Of his public services, will be acceptable to all historical students, and will enhance and substantiate the already high reputa tion Of this pure and noble-minded statesman, the peer in character and intellect Of any Of the great Revolutionary leaders.
