36 Recall Chief Justice Marshall’s note to Justice Story, after the monumental decision in McCulloch v. Maryland, 4 Wheat. 316 (1819): “Our opinion in the Bank Case has aroused the sleeping spirit of Virginia, if indeed it ever sleeps. It will, I understand, be attacked in the papers with some asperity, and as those who favor it never write for the publick it will remain undefended & of course be considered as damnably heretical.” 4 Beveridge, Life of John Marshall, 312. ; That great case is here compared with a small one to make this point: that when a court asserts the authority of a new and larger organization, already the object of jealous concern, it should take care, as did Marshall and his brethren, to be right.
