Colfax and Morrissey bribery anecdote from early Congress
The St Louis Post-Dispatch recounts an anecdote from Colfax's speakership in which John Morrissey pressed for a committee seat and offered a bribe thought to be in the form of fine cleats. Colfax, left alone with his secretary, faced Morrissey's insistence and a test of loyalties as the plan unfolded. Morrissey later opened about his district friends seeking influence, claiming he needed a slot to aid them. The incident culminated in Morrissey receiving a key committee post, the Revolutionary class, amid parliament's tiptoes of reform and pressure.
