Gradually he worked his way until, after
comparing the perfect confidence the men
Of the Confederate army placed in their
leaders with the distrust shown by armies
of other countries. he said that this
spirit was so instilled in the breasts Of
the men in gray that when Jefferson
Davis was arrested after the war ard
charged with treason every man in the
Confederate army-worthy to be called
such-came forward and declared that If
Mr. Davis were guilty Of treason, then
they, too. were traitors"
This brought the greater part Of the
assemblage TO its feet and the battle cry
of the South hurled its challenge the
length of the hall Continuing. the Sena-
tor told of Lees dissemination for war
and his protest against secession, Of the
call Of his native State that, when war
was inevitable, sounded stronger in his
ears than the call of the Union. and of
HIS message at that time TO his son. in
which he said: 7 am going South. Vir-
ginia has seeded. 1 owe my greatest
allegiance to her, and l am going South.
