To the
Honorable HENRY CLAY,
The
Incorruptible PATRIOT, who sustained,


Unscathed,


The most vindictive
Political Persecution that has ever tarnished,
The Annals of his Country


OF whom,
When Party Excitement shall have subsidized,


The
Faithful Historian will affirm,


That
In conducting the Department of Government,
Over which he presided,
He was unsurpassed in Talent, Zeal, and Fidelity
This Testimonial
OF his sound and enlightened Views as a
Statesman, #


And
His Integrity and Worth as Man,


Is
Most Respectfully Inscribed


BY
The Friend and Associate of his Youth.
