The Impeachers Impeached In Nineteenth Century Debate
A Boston Post article denounces the impeachment of Johnson figures with sharp caricature while naming Kelley, Dawes, and Stevens among those accused. It contrasts their alleged misdeeds with the integrity of others, and notes the broader partisan climate surrounding the inquiry. The piece also cites Massachusetts attitude toward suffrage and a New York World column urging Colfax impeachment, presenting Perjury and Credit Mobilier as central charges. It also mentions Colfax’s alleged dividends and related testimony, then newsy notes from Savannah and Waukesha.
