At Columbia Hall, Greenville, Mr.

but it was after that hour before he

their seats as Mr.. Seymour was escorted
to the platform. The applause continued
more than three minutes and then ex-
Governor George T. Werts, who acted as
chairman of the meeting, introduced Mr..
Seymour to the audience. This was the
signal for another outburst and it was
not until the candidate for Governor be-
gan to talk that the noise subsidized.

scenes which attended the appearance of

entrance. into the hall was the signal for
an outburst of cheers which lasted for
DYER two minutes The large gathering
was on its feet as one man to welcome
the candidate. Cheers rang out which
almost raised the roof. Men stood on
their seats and waved their hats and
shouted themselves hoarse. 1t was the
greatest outburst of genuine enthusiasm
that the people of that locality ever wit

be allowed to stand in the aisles and that
