for nomination, permit us to recommend

the line he recommended without variable.
ness or shadow of turning. IF, in standing
with few of the white population of his
section, amidst the storm of opposition
and vituperatlon, hurled upon him by his
former friends and associates, advising
those whose cause he had espoused, and
by his influence allaying prejudices be.
tween those who should be friends, consti-
tute service, he has claims upon the suf-
frages of all true Virglnians.
