Excerpt from Life of Stephen A. Douglas I have derived this narrative mainly from orig inal sources. The biography written during his life time by his friend Sheahan, and that published two years after his death by his admirer, Flint, are chiefly drawn on for the brief account of his early life. The history of his career in Congress has been gathered from the Congressional Record; the account of Conventions from contemporary reports, and the Debates with Lincoln from the authorized publication. I have not consciously taken any liberty with any text quoted, except to omit superfluous words, which omissions are indicated by asterisks. I have not attempted to pronounce judgment on Douglas or his contemporaries, but to submit the evidence. Not those who write, but those who read', pass final judgment on the heroes of biography.
