William Blount’s Impeachment
Center Director Dr. Chris Magra gave an invited lecture at the Blount Mansion in Knoxville, TN on September 28. He talked about his own research on one of the founders of the state of Tennessee.
William Blount was an ardent Federalist, and he was one of a few dozen men to sign the United States Constitution. Yet, in less than then years after it was ratified, that same Constitution became the instrument of Blount’s destruction.
