Walter T. COLQUITT was for a number of years the most brilliant (perhaps not the
most solid) member of the bar of Columbus.  He was noted for keenness of wit and
repartee and versatility of talent.  As a lawyer, judge, both a representative
and senator [elected to State Senate in OCT 1834, per p. 50] in Congress, he was
equally conspicuous and efficient.  He died in Macon, Ga., on the 7th of May,
1855, after a long and painful illness.

heads household #694 on the 1850 census of Columbus, Muscogee Co, GA.
