We agree with II contemporary that
." no man living represents in his own
character n larger number of the Amer
lean people than Gov. Wade Hampton.
Bv w0rd and deed he has acquired a
national fame. He has become a chief
figure 10 the annals Of the times.
Though rising in prominence ~ Il lead
or on the defeated side Of the late Wal,
he has "oE The popular heart, North
and South, and is to>day the most
faithful! exponent Of that sentiment
which is TO forever unite the recently
hostile sections. His heroic bearings
through the trials that confronted him
when delivering South Carolina from
bondage Eecured for him the love Of
the entire South while the liberal.
manly, patriotic uttcranccs that, from
time to time, have dropped from his
lips have awakened the admiration of
the whole North. In the presence of
Wade Hampton sectional hate dare
not lift it's head. In his pure charac.
ter are mirrOred all tue best na,iono,
traits"
