SAM HAHDWECK.

No better example is found of the
successful railroad official or man of
affairs, who is also a person of schoi-
arly attainments and literary skill,
than in the case Of Samuel H. Hard
wick, passenger traffic manager of
the Southern railway. Generally
conceded 10 be the foremost passen-
ger man in the south, MFR. Hard
witch is likewise distinguished for
his quick witt his ready pen and his
ability to talk eloquently and force
fully on his feet. lie may we'll be
called the Chauncey DepeW of the
south.
Many a man makes a success in
the mercantile world who knows
little or nothing Of literature, and,
vice versa, some persons are full of
book knowledge and speak we'll who
have no turn whatever for practical
pursuits Or executive work. When,
therefore, a man can be at once a
model passenger chief, a litterateur
and all ail-round good fellow, as
Sam HardWlck is, he is one among
ten thousand and must ever serve. as
a model for young men OF high aspi-
ratiOns.
Mr.. HardWick's address before
the General Passenger Agents asso-
citation, assembled at Old Point last
Thursday, Was .sfngularly felicitOus
and was heartily applauded by as
bright a lot of men Is was ever
brought together in a body. It had
the true literary flavor and was also
full of common sense and refined
wit. Embellished with apt quota.
tiOns from the ancient philosophers
and modern savants, the speech was
teeIning with ideas of human inter.
est and observations based on wide
railroad experience and sound bust
ness Judgment. 1t vas luminous
and it was stimulating to the pa~sen-
ger officials who listened.
Mr.. EardWick Is a southern man,
and the greater part of his life has
been spent in the south. Everybody
delights 20 honor and applaud such
a man.
