stead, and the story of Damon and
Pythias, coming down to us from the
mists of antiquity, would have been
repeated but not i'll all respects, for in
the ancient story both the friends were
saved, and in the modern one must
surely die, for Dionysius, tyrant though
he was, could spare for fidelity, but
war knows neither age, nor youth, nor
pity. Shaw acted just as others would
have acted. Davis acted as only he
could act He sat on the coffin in the
wagon, which was to hold his body
when his spirit had fled, and no king
in the robes Of purple was ever more
princely than this young man in his
faded uniform, and none has ever lived
to rule people who had as fine a soul
beneath the royal rose, for Davis gave
his life, and it was all he had to give.
10 save it was worth to him all the
domains of all the rulers of earth. 1t
was above the price of all the jewels
that ever glittered in cOronets. But
precious as it was, it was not worth his
honor and his sense of duty. When
the scaffold is reached Davis mounts it
as if he is ascending a throne. He asks
with perfect composure how long he
has to live, and is told that fifteen
minutes is all of life that is left. There
is the dangling rope that is to strangle
the fair young throat and stop the
parting breath. Davis asks for news

His Final Hour.

When the morning sun of an autumn
day rose above the encircling hills in
one of the most enhancing portions of
Tennessee, and light had scattered the
black legions Of the night, the boy rose
even as a son of light, clear as its rays,
beautiful as its myriad forms. AT 10
in the morning the drum-beats are
heard veXing the air with ominous and
baleful sounds. Men in blue uniforms
are hurrying in rank. The regiment is
formed, arms are shouldered, the bugle
is sounded, the march is begun. 1t
was not necessary-only useless for
mality of war-to send so many men
against one defenseless boy; but all the
soldiers whoever trod the earth could
not make him afraid, for his heart was
pure as Arthur's of the Round Table,
his courage as high as all the legions
of julius Caesar. A wagon was driven
up to the jail. Davis was escorted
from his cell and climbed upon it.
Standing erect, he looked around and
waved his hand to two other Confeder-
ate prisoners, who had been captured
before, and who were confined in an
other part of the Jail. This would be
enough to show the utter absence of
fear, the cool collection of all his facul-
ties. And when the curtain has rung
down upon this act in the noblest dra-
ma the world has seen of all life's trag-
edies, we might dismiss the two Con-
federates who were left in the prison,
as they do those characters on the
mimic boards when, having played
their small parts, are heard and seen
no more. But fate has woven these
two into the very texture of the story
of this immortal death. One of them
was Joshua Brown, fellow-scout with
Davis, who had also been captured by
the Federals, and who has lived TO add
his testimony to those stirring events,
while the other man was Capt. Shaw,
the chief of scouts, the very person

of rank, without any other sign save
that of a soldier ready to fight and
ready to die The name and fame of
Jackson fill the mind with wonder and
admiration; the memory of Sam Davis
with infinite love and tenderness.
This bronze tabletin front records on
its enduring face the fact that Sam
Davis was born on October 6, 1912, near
Murfreesboro, in Rutherford County,
Tenn. His life was short. 1t scarcely
began to unfold before it ended on the
scaffold at Pulaski ON the morning of
the 9th of November, 1868. Sprung
from splendid race, he was the first
born of large family of children, and
grew from infancy to youth in the pur-
est of all atmospheres, that of South

did not give Sam Davis to Tennessee
that men might see and learn how to
die.n This was the high tribute paid
the hero by Gov. Patterson, and no
person in all that crowd felt that there
was irreverance or misplaced admira-
ton in the words.
Gov. PattersOn'S Speech.
Gov. Patterson spoke as follows:
Ladies and Gentlemen of the Com
mission; Fellow Citizens:
When boy in school at Nashville /
witnessed the ceremonies of dedication
of another figure in bronze on the other
side of this picturesque hill, and we'll
do recall the awe and rapture of inn
aginative youth as my eyes beheld for
the first time heroic figure on horse
back-an incarnate force of action.
The man and the horse seemed born
one for the other-the one a master
with the erect and easy grace of martial
bearing and conscious power Of rule;
the other as if proud to bear his weight,
restive for action and breathing the
very fire of war itself.
Little did then think, even in the
day dreams Of youth, that one day as
governor / would be called upon to ac-
cept in the name of the state another
figure in bronze erected on the side OF
the grounds, not of man on horse
back, but young man, scarcely more
than boy, who belonged to another
and later ageof our history, who stands
without the marks and accoutrements

Nashville, April 29.-"I am glad the

this afternoon as he looked upon the
statue of his martyred comrade, Sam
Davis, the one who suffered death on
the gallows before he would betray the
source of information. The tears were
streaming down his cheeks as he said
it, and there we've hundreds of Others

Tennessee's most steadfast sons. Capt.

thousand people. who came to do honor
to his memory, and to pay tribute to
his loyalty and his heroism.
The ceremonies were very simple.
Maj. E. 9. Lewis, chairman of the
monument commission, presented the
statue to Tennessee. Gov. NJ. r. Pat
terson, on behalf of the people of the
state, accepted it with one of the most
eloquent addresses ever delivered on

Davis Personal Appearance.

Dh'S IcISUhdt hppcuIdHCo'
From a gentleman who knew Sam
Davis well, and who married one of his
sisters, have this information as to
his appearance and some of his char
acteristics. He seemed to have filled
every conception of the flower and
chivalry of young manhood, and his
very presense was suggestive of romance
and valorous deeds. His habits were
pure, his affections strong, his DISPOSE
ton singularly quiet and reticent. In
stature he was just six feet tall, slender
and finely proportioned, with regular
features, and an expression of mingled
strength and refinement. His eyes
were dark and aglow with intelligence;
his hair flowing and almost black; his
figure erect as if it scorned the low and
base; his manners gentle as becomes
the brave.
After receiving some education al
home and in his native county. Sam
Davis was sent to the old military in.
stitute at Nashville, and while there
he heard the sound to arms which re
verberated from every mountain side
swept over every plain and echoed in
every valley, as the South called fol
her sons to rally in defense of home
and native land. And they came

ure, and never once did he give way to
lamentation or useless grief. His
thoughts were busy, though, and they
flew back to his home and mother, the
invisible chord was touched, whose
music is sweeter than any Lutte touched
by mortal hand and from his soul
came one last pure note before the
casket which held the jewel of an inn
mortal life fell and was broken forever.
On the night before the execution he
wrote this farewell to his mother from
his prison cell:
