I would rather be beaton and be a man than to be elected and be a little puppy dog.
conscience dictates judgement liberty party vote
I am at liberty to vote as my conscience and judgement dictates to be right, without the yoke of any party on me.
country dog honesty
I know nothing, by experience, of party discipline. I would rather be a raccoon-dog, and belong to a Negro in the forest, than to belong to any party, further than to do justice to all, and to promote the interests of my country. The time will and must come, when honesty will receive its reward, and when the people of this nation will be brought to a sense of their duty, and will pause and reflect how much it cost us to redeem ourselves from the government of one man.

Heaven knows that I have done all that a mortal could do, to save the people, and the failure was not my fault, but the fault of others.
