fused to surrender to advancing years
He was always courteous, kindly, cher
ishing deep and abiding reverence for
womanhood, firm in his own convictions
yet tolerant of the convictions of others.
He represented the very highest ideals
of the land of his birth"
II did not think of Maj Stedman as
q Confederate veteran" said Repre-
sentative Bulwinkle, but am thinking
of men like Mai. Stedman who were
leaders in their States, who helped to
build the South, who helped to make it
what it is today and who did their part
in uniting the Nation"
Maj Stedman was modest and unaS-
Stunning. He declined to recall any of
his experiences during the war, and
even was loath to refer to the great
generals with whom he was asSoci-
ated. He felt that the Civil War was
history; that the men who took part
in 1t could better serve their country by
dealing with the present, doing what
they could to uphold its institutions
and preserving 1t as heritage for their
children.

Only once in his long career In the
House Maj. Stednnan rose to defend the
soldier Of the Confederacy. That was
when a Northern Representative was
reported to have clasSed them as
traitors to the country" Mai. Stedman
walked majestically down the aisle to
the well of the House and quietly re-
minded his hearers that Lee, Jackson
and the other leaders fought in what
they considered to be the cause of
right.
During the entire unfortunate Civil
War the courage and sincerity Of the
Confederate soldier were never cues
toned by his brave opponents" Mai.
Stedman said. THE ability and integ-
rity of Lee. Jackson and other great
leaders Of the South were never mini
mized. Their supreme sense of duty.
their unselfish devotion to what they
deemed to be the cause of right. have
been recognized in every land where
patriotic heroiSm has a home. Whose
ever characterizes Gen. Robert E. Lee
as traitor may well beware lest he in
herit from Herostratus his crown of
infamy. The memory Of Gen. Robert
E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson will live,
transmitted from generation to genera

by the love of their countrymen shall
