Pamphlet, "Eulogy on the Life and Character of General Andrew Jackson, Delivered at Bedford, Pa. July 29th, 1845, by Jeremiah Black, Chambersburg, 1845, 23pp. octavo, printed at the office of the 'Weekly Messenger', it reads in part: "…The character of Jackson is becoming better and better understood every day.
