While in college he was not a very diligent student, but his aptitude for learning was so marvelous that, it was said, he could prepare his lesson after the recitation bell had commenced ringing. Having selected the law as his profession, he had already attained an extensive practice and a high rank at the Bar, when his career was cut short by death caused by intemperance at the early age of twenty seven. Those who were engaged in practice with him could not but wonder at the admirable manner in which he managed his causes, knowing as they did that the time he ought to have spent in the preparation of them was passed at the card table and around the intoxicating bowl. . ."
