Nh WITHROW's SORROW.
Mr.. Speaker. Gentlemen Of the House OF
Delegates.
ION yesterday morning when I rose
from my bed of peaceful sleep and walk
ed 10 the front door OF my hotel, and
turned my eyes towards the rising sun.
that God sends To- cheer the heart of his
people. my eyes fell upon the bulletin
board of one of the great journals OF Nir-
ginia there / read in broad words:
General William b. Tallaferro, Of Glou-
cester county. is dead" My memory
carried me back to six years ago when ]
first grasped the hand OF this grand man,
whom Virginia has ever been proud OF, 10
grasp his hand was TO send magnetism TO
the heart OF every true man. To know
him was 10 love him.
MIR. Speaker. In my estimation the
true sentiment of all, especially the peo-
pie of Virginia Is honest man the noblast
work OF Cod: possibly he has left nothing
behind him to his family save one thing
as one Of the greatest statesmen Of this
day has said, I have nothing 10 leave you
but my honest name and sir. this above
all things i'm my mind is worth more than
diamonds or gold. a soldier. yes. war-
rior, a statesman. loved by all. ! cannot
that / could say that would be too great
sir, or to use as an epitah upon the mon-
umcnt of this great man than 10 say. one
OF Vrginias noblest sons. Peace TO his
ashes"
LOST \ TRUE FRIEND.
Mr. Bland. OF King and Queen said:
Il have listened with sad heart and
fearful eye at the eloquent eulogies so
httingly and beautifully expressed In be-
bali OF our lamented General William T..
1aliferro. and while I can add nothing
TO what has been so well said. ! feel that
! would be untrue 10 myself. If ] did not
give some expression OF the deep SYM
pathy ] feel for his bereayed and sorrow
stricken family. relatives and friends.
My acquaintance with him had grown
to strong friendship and few deaths out
side Of my immediate family have brOuGh.
more sadness and sorrow 10 my heart
than the death OF General William 3
Taliaferro. No one knew him who did not
ad..4re and praise him. and those who
knew him best loved him most. No :.
although he is dead and will soon be oe-
meath the cold sod OF his church ceme-
terry. and his grave strewed with beauti
ful flowers by tender hands and loving
hearts, his memory will ever live In the
hearts of his countrymen and 1e fo1ily
cherished by his friends and acquain-
tdmces.
Mr.. Speaker, ] move that this resolu-
ton be spread on the records OF the
House 20 show 20 coming posterity. the
noble deeds of this true and honest man.
for We can truly say, he was a specimen
of the noblest work Of God. An honest
man. And when We shall cross the river
Of time. may We meet in the sweet BY
and by"
