Book Description
Excerpt from Special Convocation Held on September 28th, 1915 by the University of Toronto to Confer the Honorary Degree of LL. D. On Members of the American Peace Centenary Committee There is not time to refer to the many great legal contests in which Mr. Choate has taken part, but I am sure that every citizen of Canada who has studied the history of the Civil War in the United States must remember with deep satisfaction that when, after years of disgrace, justice wasfinally done to General fitz-john Porter, it was Mr. Choate who obtained the reversal of the court-martial. In this country, how ever, he is doubtless best known as the United States Ambassador to the Court of St. James from 1899 to 1905 and as Ambassador and first United States Delegate to the Peace Conference at the Hague in 1907.
