But to give a more minute history of his politi-
cal course in by-gone days, and up to a not very
remote period In 1923 he resided in Kentucky,
and went for Gen. Jackson. When, by Clay's
ner6dhy, in 1925, Gen. jackson was defeated, that
Clay might be made by Adams Secretary of State,
the whole Of Kentucky went with Taylor. From
1926 to 1928, Taylor was the most determined
advocate of Jackson's election. He was grati6ed

him, and was at least a democrat in name and
principle until 1889.
