MEMOIR OF DE WITT CLINTON

APPENDIX

NOTE DD.

----------------------------------------

 

Removal of Mr. Clinton as Canal Commissioner.

 

The following proceedings and resolutions, which took place at the public meetings called in Albany and in the city of New-York, immediately after the removal of Mr. Clinton, and which were echoed throughout the state and country, abundantly show the sensations of surprise and indignation which that event created, while the replies of Mr. Clinton to the addresses which were delivered and accompanied the resolutions presented to him, exhibit the magnanimity and elevated tone of feeling which characterised the subject of those proceedings, in such a manner as to render the succeeding documents peculiarly interesting and deserving of public record.
