of tho Fifty-third congresB. This dis

James Ashton Uayard, another boh,
who succeeded John Wales in 18T1, and
Thomas F. Uayard, tho present Amen
can ambassador to Great lhitaln, who
was chosen in 18C9 to succeed his father,
James A. I)uurd. TIuib tho "Hluo

threo Bucuessi0 generations to tho

James Donald Cameron was chosen a
senator from Pennsylvania to till the
vacancy created by tho resignation of his
father, Simon Cameron, in March, 1877.
Ho wiib re-elected in 1879, 1885 and 1890,
hiB present term uxpiiing March .'), 1897.
IIih services in tho scnato so far will,
therefoic, comprise a period of twenty
years, or two more ears than that of his
fathor. Simon Cameron was llrst
olected to tho senate in 1815, serving
until 1819, and was re-elected in 1857 for
the term ending in 180.'(. Ho resigned in
1801 to accept tiio secretaryship of war,
which ho vacated whon appointed
minister to RuBsitt. Ho was again
elected to tho sonato to succeed Edgiir
Cowan and took his seat in 18G7 and was
ro-olected in 187'J, resigning in 1877. An
inBtancoot heredity in cabinet piifer
ment occurs in the Cameron history, as
James Donald Cameron, tho son, was
President Grant's lust sccretury of war,
having been appointed to succeed
AlphoiiBo Taft, who succeeded W, W.
Belknap, resigned under impeachment.
Tho two instances of presidential
heredity were those of Presidents John
Adams and his son, John Quincy Adams,
and William Henry Harrison and his
grandson. John Quincy Adams served
lis a bonator and secretary of state, and
after tho term of his presidency became
a representative in congress. I lis txjri,
Charles Francis Adams, served as a
representative in congress from 1858 to
1800, and wiib re-elected, but resigned in
18G1 to accept tho ministership
of Great, Britain, a osltion
previously lilted by his father
and grandfather, bo that there ensued to
tho Adams family a triple heiedity in
tho important otllco of minister to Eng
land. u.
A case of heredity in tho third genera
tion of service in tho house occurred in
tho olection of T. L. Thompson as a
representative from California at tho
Fiftieth congress. His grandfather,
Phillip R. Thompson, wiib a representa
tive in congress from Virginia from 1801
to 1807, and his fathor u representative
from tho same stato from 1817 to 1819.
An instance of father and son serving at
the same congi ess is that of Charles S.
Voorhoos, delegate from the territory of
Washington, who Horved at tho Fiftieth
congress at tho sumo time with his
