he died as if quietly falling
asleep, having been unconscious
for sometime before the end.
1t Is coincidence worthy of
mention that General Hampton
died on the anniversary Of the
day that Chamberlain turned the
statehouse over to him upon the
reclamation of the state from
radical rule, ending The dark days
Of reconstruction.
Wade Hampton was the most
fistinguishen man South Carolina
has produced during the last cen
tury. He was prominent as a
warrior, statesman and citizen,
and the people of the entire south
loved him.
1t was only about a year ago
at the Confederate reunion that
the old soldiers marched in
body to his home and gave him
one Of the grandest ovations ever
given any man. He took occasion
in his remarks on that occasion
to bid them last farewell. He
recently celebrated his S4th birth
day, and on that day was able to
go out with his son for a drive.
Up to the last he retained his
mental acumen and his interest
in public affairs never tagged.
1t was only about ten days ago
that he spoke fittingly of the in
Vitation to President Roosevelt
to South Carolina.

GENERAL WADE HAMPTON
DEAD.
The States Most Distinguished
Citizen Passes Away.

Columbia, April 1.-The
"Beau Sabreur" of the Confed
eracy is no more. The grand old
oak that has weathered many a
storm has fallen at last. General
Wade Hampton died this morning
at 9 o'clock. No sudden stroke
felled hi9. His iron constitution
succumbed at last to such a series
of strains as few men were ever
called upon to endure; as no
man ever sustained with more
splendid fortitude or more unfal-
tering heart.
The soldier who told his men
when he led them forth that he
would never order them to 90
where he would not go at their
head, the most notable figure Of
the Confederacy, breathed his
last at his home in this city.
The generals health has been
steadily failing for some months.
His last public appearance was
in Charleston at the reunion of
the South Carolina college alumni
in December last, when he made
two brilliant speeches. The gen
erals death has been expected
for several days, but was not
thought to be so near,
When the announcement of
death was made this morning,
the state flag was Immediately
run to half mast on the capitol
building and the building draped
in black streamer8.
The city hall displayed flags at
half mast from each of the towers
and the big city bell was solemn
ly tOlled for half an hour.
This afternoon the Confederate
monument on the capital square
will be draped in mourning.
One tribute today is the placing
of the flag on the United States
government building at half mast
by order OF the secretary Of the
treasury in honor cf General
Hampton as a United States
senator.
General Hampton hes been
conscious only at times d"r~-
the past u hours. Lost night he
had a long talk with his sister

Funeral.

when the body of Wade Hampto
was buried in the family lot in
Trinity church yard was greater
and an effort was made by the
family to have this a quiet fu
neral. The outpouring was spon-
taneous. The railroads leading
here were forced to run special
trains. Veterans, sons and daugh-
ters, military and municipal
officers came from every county
in the state. There were rep.
resenative people; the most
hOnored men and women in
South Carolina were here.
During the short time today
the public was PERMITTED to the
Hampton house, several thous-
and people, Including great
many negroes, passed By the
coffin. The procession included
all the organization, about 500
militia, and delegations from
schools and colleges. All march,

half long. All were on foot cx-

The procession moved to the
church, a little over half a mile
distant, between rows of people.
Some Of the houses on the way
had Confederate flags draped in
mourning.

two inevitable conclusions either that
the Legislature intended to grant to the
railroads a total exemption from all
taxation for the years 1901 and 1902, or
that the Act is so utterly insensible as
to be incapable of any reasonable inter
probation. If this be the opinion of the
court, l must again enter my respectful
but most earnest dissent.
If, however, the able opinion of the
Chief Justice, which l understand re-
ceives the concurrence of Justice Cook,
holds, as it seems to me it does hold,
that the railroads are liable for the years
1901 and 1902 at least to the amount of
their assessment of 1900, then to that eX-
tent / concur in the concurring opinion
This would eliminate from the opinion
of the court its vital principle, leaving
practically only it's conclusion concur
red in by a majority of it's members.
Hence, it seems needless for me to go
into any further discussion beyond what
is contained in the body of my opinion,
from which the elaborate opinion of the
Chief Justice was written in dissent.
