stated that he had obtained some OF
the information from Virginia records

SENATOR BACON OF GEORGIA.

In spite of passing fashions, Angus
tus o. Bacon of Georgia to the last
remained Senator of the old school.
He refused to be captivated by the
fads and fancies of current politics
and never yielded his principles for
expediency's sake. The younger gen.
Grafton was disposed to regard him as
old-fashioned and even reactionary,
but in SO far as he was a conservative,
it was because of his sound legal
training, his cautiousness in action
and his conception of the duties i'm.
posed upon him by the standards OF
statesmanship Of the Senate.
Yet in spite of the spread of new
ideas, Senator Bacon retained his
hold mistaken upon the affections Of
the people of his state. If he hat
lived until March 8. he would ther
have entered upon his fourth consecu
tive term as Senator, a record reache,
by no Senator from Georgia. Tn,
loyalty Of his state to him and hi
long service and solid attainment
gave him great influence among tn
members not only of his own part
