CHAPTER XVII MAJOR GENERAL JAMES PATTON ANDERSON of the Confederacy 197 Major General James Patton Anderson, son of Colonel William Preston Anderson, and grand son of Governor Adair of Kentucky, was born at Winchester, Tenn., on Feb. 16th, 1822. He got his primary education in country and village schools, then graduated in the Jefferson college at Connersville, Penn., in 1840. Returned to Miss. and studied Law with 203 Buckner & 204 Delafield, and was admitted to the bar in 1843. General Anderson says, "that in the summers of 1844-45 he spent three months each summer in the Law School of Judge Thomas B. Monroe at Montrose over Frankfort, Kentucky, and have always regarded these months as more profitably spent than any others in his life." Returned to Miss. to practice law but needed financial support, so took the office of Deputy under his brother-in-law, Col. James H. Murray 205, for a year, then began the law practice, but hardly started before the Governor of Miss. called him out to go to the war in Mexico, was elected Lieut.-Colonel, and commanded at Tampico. He returned at the close, his health broken with malarial fever. He resumed the practice of law and was elected to the Legislature. He got military training in the Mexican campaign which stood him in lieu of a West Point Course in the art of war. Anderson's health still being precarious, he was advised to change climate. His friend, Jefferson Davis 206, was just appointed Sec'y of War in President Pierce's 207 Cabinet, and Washington Territory was just organized. Mr. Davis 206 secured for him the position of U. S. Marshall of Washington, and also Census taker, though this was not a census year, 1853. General Anderson was married on the 30th of April and started immediaely on their bridal trip to Washington Territory, by way of Nicaraugua. He regained his health in that great climate, and was popular with the people, was elected to Congress as Delegate from that Territory. Just before his two year term expired in Congress, President Pierce 207, appointed him Governor of Washington, but he declined; Then when Mr. Buchanan 208 was inaugurated, he appointed General Anderson Governor of Washington and Indian Agent. He, Gen. Anderson consulted his wife and they decided to resign the appointment, because they anticipaed that the secession question would come up before his term of office was out. Instead of going back as Governor of Washington he went to Florida and engaged in raising cotton and sugar with a big Plantation and Negro slaves. |
