Voorhees as a Representative from Indiana, and was declared by the Committee on Elections to be entitled to the place. He was re-elected to the Fortieth Congress. 568. WILLIAM B. WASHBURN was born in Winchendon, Massachusetts, January 31, 1820.

Having gone directly from the college to a responsible position, he naturally did not understand or know how to handle men until after long experience.

That's good. You stay here and find out all you can."
