Excerpt from The Diary of Philip Hone, 1828-1851
In politics, Mr. Hone was first a Federalist, and afterwards a Whig, having given its name to the latter party. The Jackson administration, characterized as it was by unwarrantable assump tion Of power by the Executive and a cringing party subserviency, excited his detestation 5 and he was an important factor in the great campaign which ended in the election Of General Harrison. He was an able speaker, and his services were called into requisi tion at all times Of public commotion. He presided with success at party conventions, where his fine presence, strong voice, and dignified language swayed and moderated great assemblages.
