Nancy Hanks Feat

The great feat performed by the trotting

trotting horses The mare was driven h,

Death Of Hon. Ale.r. r. BOteler.

Hon Alex. R. ROteler died in shepherds
town on Sunday morning last-aged- II
years. BY this dispensation of Providence
one Of the most distinguished citizens Of
the county-a gentleman, too, of national
reputation-has been removed. He was a
graduate of Princeton, scholarly, aesthetic
in his tastes, brilliant as an orator, brave
and generous and courteous There are
those in our midst who remember with
pleasure the unsurpassed joint discussions,
during the hot political contests before the
war, between Col Boteler and Hon. G. j.
Faulkner, and Col BOteler and Hon. Henry
Bedinger. Nothing more brilliant than
these before or since. Col Boteler served
in Congress the term preceding the war,
and by a single speech almost won the
Speakers chair. He was active in endeav-
or to prevent the war between the States
but afterwards served in the Confederate
Congress, and at times upon the stats of
Gen. R. f. Lee and Gen. ]. E. B. Stuart
He was one Of West Virginia's Centennial
Commissioners and most faithfully repre-
sented her interests He was conspicuous
as a promoter of the Shenandoah Valley
Railroad was a member of the celebrated
Tariff Commission several years ago under
the Cleveland administration he wasPardOn
C.srlul Tie Departments of Justice at Wash
ington. Ii would take book to chronicle his
activities in behalf Of public interests and
Of his unselhsh endeayors.
In early life he married daughter of
Commodore Stockton, of New Jersey. She
was most estimable and charming woman,
aud preceded him to the grave by about
year.
Hon. s. S. Cox, in his Three Decades of
Federal Legislation, writes of Col. Boteler
Ton page 93l:
"--Alexander r. Boteler is still living.
He made the most eloquent speech, next to
that Of SARGENT O. Prentiss in his own case,
ever delivered in Congress. He was a
Union man before the war, and deprecated
hostilities. He made a picture before the
House of Washington, the Nirginian, with
his homespun and buckskin-clad patriots,
moving to the defense of Massachusetts,
It was emotional enough to have stirred the
stones to mutiny against secession. But
afterwards he became 'StOnewalP JacksOn's
adjutant general fact showing the force
of State pride in forming and directing the
plastic Virginian and Southern mind"
Mr.. Cox, if our own memory serves US,
is in error in the statement that Col. Bote-
Ter was sdjutant general Of "StOnewall"
