Young. Taft cannot win out. In

respected he was never regarded as a
great political leader, in the sense
that Gladstone and Harcourt were
leaders. Personally popular and Of
a most genial disposition, he never
showed the force necessary to domi-
nate a great party. He stood well
enough with the radicals, without
having aroused their enthusiasm, and
he escaped giving serious offense to
moderate and imperial liberals
though the latter never took kindly
to his leadership. But Of his person.
al popularity, integrity and sincerity
there never was any question, and
"C.-B." as he was Familiarity called,
was held in universal esteem.
In 1860 he was married to Char
lotte, daughter OF the late General
Sir Charles Bruce. She died I'm 1906
at Marienbad, after a long illness.
Sir Henry was always a man whom
Gladstone regarded with favor. In
1SS4-5 he was given the important
position oD Chief Secretary for Ire
land, and in Gladstone's third cabinet
in 1886, he was intrusted with the
portfolio of secretary Of state for war
This same position was given him
in the Gladstone ministry Of 1892.
BY no means strong in debate, and
by no means able as an orator. Sir
Henry was yet a powerful factor in
the house of commons. Beside
whom he succeeded in the
liberal leadership, Sir Henry did not
compare either as orator, debater or
writer. Yet in his way he was prob
ably even moe attractive than Glad
stone. While he was never wor-
shipped as a hero. he was always
priced as a personal fiend.
