Sherman is that the former especially

SUBSEQUENT MEETINGS.

til after his election to the Governor
ship IN 1876. At our first meeting
we had a pleasant evening, recalling
the interesting incidents of the Cham
bersburg raid. From then until the
last few years l met him many times
in Washington and was always de-
lighted to enjoy his genial and kindly
companionship. He had been a can
didate for Governor Immediately after
the war and before the Congressional
reconstruction OF the South, but was
defeated by Governor Orr. In 1876,
when the people were gOaded to deS-
peration by the licentiouS carpet-bag
rule of the State, Hampton was forced
into the campaign for Governor against
Governor Chamberlain, who was great
ly the best of all the carpet-baggers
of the State, and who would have
made reputable Republican govern
ment had it been possible. The con-
test was one CT unusual desperation,
but with all the power and machinery
in the hands Of the State authorities.
