The following sketch of Ex.Gov. No.
BILE, late Governor of South Carolina, is
from the Southern Literary Messenger.
Patrick Noble was a lawyer By profess
ion and was long prominent member Of
iheState Legislature. In December 1918,
he succeeded TO the chair OF Speaser Of the
House Of Representatives, on the transfer
Of Gen. Hayne from the Speakers chair
II the Office Of Attorney General Of the
S,aic. Gov. Noble filled the office Of
Speaker, by repeated reflections, until
December, 1923, when, for an interval. he
left the hall Of legislation. for private
station. In November, 1888. having re-
snmed his place in The Legislature, he
was again chosen Speaker Of The House,
on the vacation Of the chair bv the election
ofthe Hon. Henry L. Pinckney to Con-
gress, and held il also for the succeeding
term. In 1896, he was elected 10 the
Sraie Senate, and, ON The first day of his
first appearance IN that body, was chosen
its President; the Hon. Henry Dsas. his
predecessor in that office, having declined
a re .eieetion to the Legislature. In De-
cember, 1888, he was elected Governor of
the State, (succeeding GOV. Builer,) with
the general occurrence Of oil parties and
held the office at the time Of his death.
Gov. Noble was a man Of amiable and
irreproacable character, sound judgment,
and high Intelligence, and filled the Execu.
tive office with grace and dignity. We
believe that he was. wirhontan enemy. and
his loss will be nike felt in the private
circle and the public council. File was 10
the prime Of life, being only in about the
5O,h year of his age. when cut short in
his career Of usefulness and honor.
