throb OF sympathy for Henry c. Stuart and his
family in the fearful trouble that has come
upon them. There will be no condemnation
for the dead man. for loss of reason is a calamity
which cannot be prevented or avoided and which
may come upon the best and strongest of us.

has befallen Henry Stuart almost at the very
moment of his attainment Of one of the highest
honors that any virginian ever has known and

Virginia this tribute to character and worth ia
one such as few men In the history OF this coun.
try have won. To have such well earned triumph
Swallowed by private and irreparable disaster and
grief is bitter
The people OF Virginia will understand this.
and Mr.. Stuart may find some alleviating COM
fort in the knowledge that he has the earnest
afectionate sympathy OF all of them, that the
prayers Of thousands will go up that the blow
may be softened as much as s possible and that
he may be strengthened to endure It.
