good was greatest. He was preaching
the doctrine OF the universal brother
hood OF man and had done more 10 bring
about an era OF good feeling between
the North and South than any other

be said OF him, as it was said OF Henry

In the annals Of crime il would be
hard to ind an instance Of such wanton
and meaningless murder as that com

the Chief Executive as the President
