his youth-and he has now reached old
age-he has been active for the well

Before the civil war he worked for their

to increase their culture. All his life
long he has been connected with edu-
cational institutions for their especial
benefit. He has made for himself an
imperishable record as an agent of civ
ilization, and his name will never be

has always been the most absolutely
truthful person in the whole range Of
my acquaintance. Inever knew him to
run into the slightest exaggeration or
to borrow in the least degree from his
imagination In relating an occurrence. >.
One OF the party remarked: Il was
amused one day to hear an officer say
that the general was 'tediously truth
full He explained that what he meant
by that was that the general. in men-
tioniRg something that had taken place,
would direct his mind so earnestly to
stating unimportant details with entire
accuracy that he would mar the inter-
est Of the story.
For instance, after returning from
a walk around camp, he would say: I
was told so and so about the wounded
by DR.. - while we were talking this
morning inside the tent; and a half
hour afterward he would take the trou-
bic to come back and say, as If it were
matter of the greatest Importance: I
was mistaken when / told you that my
conversation with DR.. - occurred in
side his tent; that was not correct; 1t
took place while we were standing in
front Of his tent"
There was much truth in this COM
ment, No one who had served any
time with the general could fail to be
struck with his excellent memory and
the pains he invariably took to state
occurrences with positive accuracy even
