may or msy not Be anticipated, bu.
IL there il in him "the stuff, as
his friends and those who know him
we'll say there is stranger things might
come to pass.
But this story is to deal with the
man Van Wyck, not with his political
future. That will take care of itself.
The winner in yesterdays great
contest once lived in Georgia His
mother was born in South Carolina,
and by ties of sympathy and consan-
guinity he is as much Southerncr
as he is representative of the North.
But to begin at the beginning.
The original Van Wyck came to this
country from Holland in 1890. lie
came from the town of Wyck, where
the family had been prominent, and
hence the prefix Won, meaning of,
and which time has changed to Van.
The father Of the present Judge Van
Wyck was William Van Wyck, a
prominent lawyer.
He married Miss Maverick, of
South Carolina, whom he met in New
York as school girl. The Maverick
family was very wealthy one, and
lived near Pendleton, S. c., having
a large country home adjoining that
Of John G. Calhoun. The health of
Judge Van Wyck's father was poor,
and shortly after his marriage the
family moved to South Carolina. The
family had plenty of money, and their
children, New York's first mayor
among the number, were raised in
that ample, if not luxurious, style
common to South Carolinians of that
period.
Robert Van Wyck spent his boy
hood in South Carolina, and at the
age of sixteen was sent to school at
Wilson's Academy, near Hillsboro,
N. c., a famous boys school of that
period. When the war came on the
family drifted back to New York.
Mrs. Van Wyck's property, which
consisted largely Of slaves and land,
was Of course, nearly all swept away,
but enough was saved from the wreck
for the mother to give her son Robert
the sum of $4,000 to start life on.
When the war ended young Van
Wyck decided to return to the South
and with friend near his own age
went to Savannah and opened u
wholesale grocery house.
The two young men did tremen-
dous business, on credit, and soon
their goods and capital were both
gvnc. Van Wyck went to California
and stayed few months, but soon
returned to New York, whc:e his
mother and brothers were living. He
found his brothers were all doing well
working hard, and he determined tc
make new start in life.
At the age of 81 he entered Co.
lumbia College, where he graduated
first in q class of 200. He was thu
valedictorian of his class, and Charlie;
O'Connor, the great lawyer, who was
present at the college ceremonies
predicted at the time that young Var
Wyck would make his mark in tn,
affairs Of the country.
Immediately after his graduation
Van Wyck entered upon the practice
Of law. and soon identified himsel
politically with Tammany Hall.
Early in his connection with Tam
many he showed his independence by
rising at a meeting of the Tammany
executive committee and denouncin.
the then all powerful boss, John Kell,
to his face, for his double dealing ant
