pleasing. Capt Paul made many frien.s
while here, and those. who sat and
stood spell bound beneath the ire sistible
influence of his eloquent words will long
remember him with kind aud pleasant
recollectiens. Sometimes he was grand
and majestic as the rushing cataract,
and then as soothing and gentle as the
lake unruffled by the breath CT the wind ;
but throughout his speech, in manner
and matter, was practical, truthful and
convincing and entertaining.
Rockingham and the valley may we'll
be proud Of her rising young statesman
and patriot. Capt. Paul was educated
at Roanoke College, Salem, Va, was a
captain in the Confederate army, and
in both war and peace has proven him
self faithful, brave and true"
