one who has for three successive terms
been honored by the people OF his
bounty with seat in this body; one
sir who, at the early age OF eight years,
was shut out from the school room aud
the Der efits Of an early education, by
the stern decree OF poverty, but one who
has since, by close application 1t home
and in his Office, fitted himself for the
position tn which he now aspires-a
man who, as a member on the floor of
this House has ever advocated those
measures most conducive to the interest
of the people and the welfare of the
State. At the last session Uf the Legis-
lature he introduced aud secured by his
earnest efforts, the passage Of a bill tax
