able to address you as fellow-Ameri-
cans, knowing no North, no South,
no East, no West, but coming to-
gether as a band of brethren, only
vieing with each other in devotion
to our great company and in love
for our common country.
when | first came here to a
of the general agents of
this company, ! was asked If | had
ever travelled North, and | said: NO,
| had started North once with a |
large party of Southerners, and got |
as far as Gettysburg and you North
ern men cut up the devil and acted
so badly that / went back South,
and had never come North since, and
hat even when you all have given
ne such a warm welcome it had al
most given me chill when |
