Page IS The Southern Israelite therP d at his home, including Trum- I, Senator Giles from Virginia and Pavid Franks, a Jew. Put let Trumbull tell it: ; scarcely seated, when he, Gilo;*, began to rally me on the puri- ancestry and character of \n gland. I saw there was no other person from New England pres- 1 therefore, although consci ous that I was in no degree, bound to defend my country, I did it as well as uld. Whether it had been pre arranged that a debate on the Chris tian religion, in which it should be powerfully ridiculed on the one side and weekly defended on the other was to be brought forward as promising amusement to a rather free thinking dinner party, I will not presume to say, but it had that appearance, and Mr. Giles pushed his raillery, to my no small annoyance if not my dis comfort, until dinner was announced.
