The writer has heard upon tho hus-
tings many OF the greatest orators OF
the South, but we never listenedlto
stronger or more convincinglY elo-
quent appeal TO reason than Marion

but left the court room feeling cheer.
ed and kIndlier toward the world.
Riley did not appeal to passion noi
to prejudice, but he addressed tn,
