  • History of the U.S. Attorneys
    Bicentennial Celebration of the United States Attorneys 1789 - 1989 "The United States Attorney is the representative not of an ordinary party to a controversy, but of a sovereignty whose obligation to govern impartially is as compelling as its obligation to govern at all; and whose interest, therefore, in a criminal prosecution is not that it shall win a case, but that justice shall be done. As such, he is in a peculiar and very definite sense the servant of the law, the twofold aim of which is that guilt shall not escape or innocence suffer. He may prosecute with earnestness and vigor– indeed, he should do so. But, while he may strike hard blows, he is not at liberty to strike foul ones. It is as much his duty to refrain from improper methods calculated to produce a wrongful conviction as it is to use every legitimate means to bring about a just one." QUOTED FROM STATEMENT OF MR. JUSTICE SUTHERLAND, BERGER V. UNITED STATES, 295 U. S. 88 (1935) Note: The information in this document was compiled from historical records maintained by the Offices of the United States Attorneys and by the Department of Justice. Every effort has been made to prepare accurate information. In some instances, this document mentions officials without the “United States Attorney” title, who nevertheless served under federal appointment to enforce the laws of the United States in federal territories prior to statehood and the creation of a federal judicial district. INTRODUCTION In this, the Bicentennial Year of the United States Constitution, the people of America find cause to celebrate the principles formulated at the inception of the nation Alexis de Tocqueville called, “The Great Experiment.” The experiment has worked, and the survival of the Constitution is proof of that.

AUTHOR AND EDITOR VOLUME II CHICAGO THE LEWIS PUBLISHING COMPANY 1908 1794134 H J^ CuBxT^^ HISTORY OF MARSHALL COUNTY LXVI. HENRY HARRISON CULVER. Henry Harrison Culver, the youngest child of John Milton Culver and Lydia E. Howard, was born near London, Madison county, Ohio, August 9, 1840. The other children of the family were Lutellus, killed in the civil war; Wallace \V., Lucius L., Ruth, and Lucetta. The father was evidently a whig in politics; and what was more natural than that he should name his son after the whig candidate for the presidency, William Henry Harrison, then in the heat of the wonderful "Log Cabin and Hard Cider" campaign, which swept the country like wild- fire, and at the November elections landed, by an overwhelming majority, the famous old Indian fighter in the White House at Washington? John Milton Culver was of Scotch descent and a native of Ohio. He was a farmer and later became a railroad contractor in the rapidly devel- oping new country in which he lived. But in the early '50s he met with financial reverses, then so common in the west, and with his large family to support he doubtless encouraged his sons to strike out early for them- selves and begin their lives on their own responsibility. It is not surprising therefore, that we find Henry, at the age of fifteen, with only a meager common school education of less than twelve months, accompanied by his older brother Wallace, in St.

    Schuyler Colfax: Whig Editor, 1845-1855* WILLARDH. SMITH The blood of families of the English Puritan, the French Huguenot and the Dutch Reformed churches flowed in the veins of Schuyler Colfax. He was born in New York City on March 23, 1823. His paternal grandfather was General William Colfax, who, in the Revolutionary War, was com- mander of Washington’s picked Life Guard.’ At the close of the War, General Colfax married Hester Schuyler, a cou- sin of General Philip Schuyler. On the maternal side the ancestry of Schuyler Colfax included the La Masters and Strykers.? His mother was a Stryker. His father died a few months before the son was born. In 1834 Mrs. Colfax mar- ried George W. Matthews of Baltimore. In the meantime, Schuyler was attending the public schools of New York City. He did not go far in the attainment of a formal education and often referred in later life to his training in the school of ex~erieiice.~ The year 1836 found the Matthews family contributing their part to the great westward movement of the period. Traveling by way of Buffalo and Detroit, they settled at New Carlisle, Indiana, just west of South Bend. Here young Schuyler Colfax spent the next five years clerking in his step-father’s store and doing farm work in the surrounding community. The Matthews house was used for a Sunday school in which the step-father, mother and son were teach- er~.~It is well to mention this in passing as the religious environment of Colfax had its influence on his later life.
