The ancestors of Jefferson Davis, were of pure English stock, but so ilonjr resident In America that the type had become thorough- fi ly southern American. On both sides they $3 served in the war for American Independ- jj ence, his father, Samuel Davis, winning some distinction in the mounted troops of ti Georgia. Of his two sous, Jefferson early be-p came a soldier, while Joseph, a man of talent, g scarcely, if at all, inferior, gained a local S success as lawyer and planter in Mississippi. Q The brothers were notably affectionate ia childhood, and remained through lire devoted to each other. Soon after the birth of Jefferson, Samuel Diivis removed to Mississippi, locating near Woodvllle, in VVilkinso.i county. The sons there, acquired ten unusually good English education for the timo, and at an early age Jefferson entered Transylvania college, Ken tucky. In I Si 1, however, President Monroe appointed hlia a cadet at West Point, whence him to complete the term, and in 1S50 re elected him for a full term.
