Event Details

The votes of Kentucky Senators Rowan and Bibb are recorded with the President against the Frederick bill after its return. Rowan had previously indicated opposition to the current administration stronger than to the last, but questions arise if favors for his son as bearer of despatches to London and for himself as a visitor to West Point altered his stance.
