Note 1139 — Chapter VIII
Reading edition
Wilkinson's testimony on the trial for misdemeanor (Annals, 10th Cong. 1st Sess, 520-22) was the same as before the grand jury.
"Wilkinson is now before the grand jury, and has such a mighty mass of words to deliver himself of, that he claims at least two days more to discharge the wondrous cargo." (Irving to Paulding, June 22, 1807, Irving, i, 145.)
