Excerpt from The Bailey Controversy in Texas, Vol. 1 of 2: With Lessons From the Political Life-Story of a Fallen Idol
Joosome light may be thrown on the past, pending and prospective issues growing out of this memorable political and commercial controversy in Texas.
All unnecessary references to Mr. Bailey's private character and affairs have been avoided as inappropriate to this discussion, and while the Author has not found as much to praise in Mr. Bailey as he once thought was due him, yet a sense of duty, if not an impulse to be generous where generosity could be shown without a sacrifice of principle, has impelled the Author to make such allusions to Mr. Bailey's better impulses as the writer's estimate of his character and career would justify.
