[1201] It was this farrago, published in every newspaper, that had influenced the country only less than Jefferson's Special Message to Congress.

[1202] Commodore Decatur's testimony was almost identical with that of Truxtun. More convincing still, General Adair, writing before the trial began, told substantially the same story. (Adair's statement, March, 1807, as quoted in Parton: _Burr_, footnote to 493.)

For this famous pa.s.sage of Wirt's speech, see Appendix E.

Burr was vastly amused by it and it became "a standing joke with him for the rest of his life." (See Parton: _Burr_, 506.) But it was no "joke"--standing or otherwise--to the people. They believed Wirt's imagery to be a statement of the facts.

[1233] _Ib._ 168. Another story "propagated through the crowd" was that Burr had, by his "emissaries," attempted to poison with laudanum one of the Government's witnesses--this although the particular witness had been brought to Richmond to testify only that Wilkinson was not in the pay of Spain. (_Blennerha.s.sett Papers_: Safford, 367.)

[1234] _Burr Trials_, II, 164-73.

[1235] Botts here refers to the public outcry against Jefferson, while Governor during the Revolution, that nearly resulted in his impeachment.
