What an unfortunate first name.
Philander. Just look at what that search brings up. One wonders if the name was intentional, or just an unfortunate coincidence.
The name was almost certainly intentional. I have not been able to find any data on whether he was named in tribute to
Philander Chase, the first Episcopal Bishop of Ohio, and the founder of
Kenyon College. Knox was born eight months after Chase died. --

The large block quote about US intervention in Nicaragua doesn't seem to have much to do with Philander Knox. I didn't tamper with or remove it, but it probably belongs elsewhere (history of Nicaragua springs to mind).
