Notes for ELISHA WILLIAMS:
James Kent's Necrologies:                                    Elisha Williams Esq. Died at New York June 29th 1833. aged 61. He died of dropsy in the chest. He had been declining and in wretched health for some years. The failure of the Bank of Columbia, of which he had been for many years President and chief director, broke his heart and hurt his influence. He was a lawyer of quick and distinguished genius--a brilliant Nisi Prius and Jury Orator. He had great practice at Hudson and was much engaged in various speculations. He and Judge W. W. Van Ness and Jacob R. Van Rensalaer, and Thomas P. Grosvenor formed for many years a shining and powerful club of political federalists, but the management of the funds and credit of the Bank of Columbia was injurious to their reputations. They all terminated disastrously in pecuniary credit, and in health and influence. Mr. Williams was a noble, generous, enterprising, noisy, man, with wonderful capacity of elocution, but with very little learning which he appeared always to despise. I saw him the first time on Tuesday April 17th 1798 at Kinderhook. It was a very cold day and I hired a wagon which took me that day from Hudson to Albany--Williams was a stiff, churlish, dashing, impudent country attorney as he then appeared to me. He road on horseback to Albany and had a tippet round his neck. Some years afterwards when settled in Hudson I became intimate with him and loved him. He was kind, tender-hearted and affectionate. He made large investments at Waterloo in Seneca County where he lived the last year of his life.
