Oapt. Henry Daniel-
INCIDENTS OF A STIRRING LTF.3—THE KILLING
OP HIS BBOTHER-IN-IAW—HIS POLITICAL
CAREER, ETC., ET £ .
Louisville Courier-Jourua 1 ,10th.
On Sunday last, at 12:30 o’clock r. m., at
the residence of Hon. B. J. Peters, in this
city, the venerable Henry Daniel breathed his
last, in the 87th year of his age. Few men
have lived and died in Kentucky whose
careers were so varied as that of the subject
of this memorial sketch, At one time the
idol of the populace, in a moment of passion
he sacrificed honors, reputation, and every
thing that had endeared him to the people,
overturned the household gods of his own
home, and henceforth lived among, but
scarcely of, men Captain Daniel was a man
cf solid rather than showy intellect As
a lawyer, he was wary, keen and not over-
scrupulous. As a politician, bo was
bitter and uncompromising, with tonic
ity holding to tjje opinions
“he never made a mistake against himself in
the settlement of accounts.”
Mr. Clifton Thomas, in addressing the
court in opposition to Daniel's motion for a
continuance, used the words: “Moreover,
this affidavit contains base and contemptible
slanders!” Daniel arrested him instantly, I
stying: “Don’t say that again!’* Thomas i
turned his face toward Daniel, who stood on '
his left, and said, “I do repeat it!” Daniel 1m-.
mediately drew a pistol from his pants pocket j
and fired upon him. When Daniel presented j
his pistol, Thomas threw his left arm for- ;
ward to protect his body. The ball passed
through the fleshy part of the arm and en- i
tered the body In the region of the heart ond
lungs. Thomson staggered back to the right, i
immediately! upoL receiving the shot, and !
drew an Allen revolver (known as a “pepper
box”) from his coat pocket, but dropped it
almost as soon as drawn, fell into a chair and
almost instantly expired.
At the subsequent trial on the indictment
for murder, it was proven by creditable wit
nesses that the unfortunate Thompson and

In 1816 be held the position of Common
wealth’s Attorney, and prosecuted aud con
vieted that year the first murderers ever
haDged in Montgomery county, two men
named Davis and Myere, who had murdered
a peddler named Sylvester Combs, about one
mile and a quarter north of town, on the old
dirt road that was superseded years ago by
the Maysville pike. They were both haDged
ont he spot where they perpetrated their aw-
fal crime. In 1827 he was elected by the
Jackson party, as the Democracy were then
styled, to serve in Congress, and was after
wards honored with two re-elections.
While serving in that then honorable posi
tion it was his rare good fortune to win and
retain the confidence of the great
Calhoun, who was ever afterward his ideal of
the statesman and patriot, and it was to him
that Mr. Calhoun intrnsted his overtures to
Mr. Clay which resulted in the modification
of the distinguished Kentuckian’s tariff
measures, in obedience to the wishes and
views of almost the united South, which
backed up the nullification views ot the great
South Carolinian; and almost tbe last act of
Captain Daniel’s life, a few days before the
receiving of the injury which resulted in his
death, was to write an elaborate article,
which appeared as a communication in the
.Sentinel, defending Calhoun from what he
thought v.*as a. misrepresentation cf that dis
tinguished statesman’s opinions that had ap
peared in an editorial article of our own, and
advocating secession as the only remedy for
national ills. It was his intention to have
followed that article up with others in advo
cacy of his peculiar views, but was prevent
ed by the ncccident to which we have jus:
alluded.
During his last term in Congress he was
charged with selling out to the Whigs, and
his voles were of a character that was “con
firmation strong as proof of holy writ,” to
his constituents of the truth of the charge.
The consequence was his repudiation by them j a Fuii<
at their subsequent congressional convention.
This so infuriated him that he not only pub
licly renounced his Democracy, but declared
himself a W’hig. He even went to the ex
tremity of refusing to live in the district that,
r.3 he claimed, had heaped unmerited disgrace
upon him. and removed to Lexington about
tho year 1826, where he was shortly after,
through the influence offMr. Clay, elected to
a seat in the Legislature by the Whigs of that
county. A-piring to tho position of Circuit
Judge, his t ew political allies thought he was
too greedy, and, in turn, he was unceremoni
ously shelv- d by them. Mortified and indig
nant at this treatment, he turned his back
upon Lexin.ton and returned to Mount Sterl
ing after n:t absence of lour or five years,
where he, in a public speech, renounced his
Whiggery and renewed his allegiance to the j and
Democratic party, an allegiance from which |
he never afterwards swerved.
He was fast regaining the confidence and j
esteem of his old constituency, when, on j
March 5, 1845, occurred an event, in the ;
court-house of this city, which forever ended
his career as a public man. At 10 o’clock on
the morning of that daj r , in open court, he !
shot and killed his brother-in-law, Chifton R. |
Thomson, Esq., oco of tho most promising
from his bed again. Sometimes he would
rally aud show symptoms of recovery, and
then relapse and grow feebler. The shock
was too severe for a system worn and en- |
feebled by the encroachnafn?s of advanced
age, aud ho gradually failed until Sunday f
at noon, when ho breathed his last.
Ho died willingly and peacefully and
hopefully, believing, as he asserted j
with his last intelligible utterance, that his !
sins were forgiven and that he was going to i
a heavenly inheritance. God grant it will be j
the prayer of ail who knew him in the bright j
promise and honors and usefulness of his •
early manhood, in his blighted middle life, ■
and iu bis ripe and latterly Christian old age.
After a stormy and troubled life, alternating
between gratified and baffled ambitions, torn
by passions and chastened by remorse, and,
finally, as the curtain was descending, tbe
old man sleeps peacefully amid the beauty
and quietude of Macbpelah.
