Professor Charles A. Graves ot the
University of Virginia Law school fO
the following anecdote ot General
L :'£*o, says the Louisville (KyJ Times:
“When 1 had taken my master's de-
Ifljroe at Washington and Leo during the
of General Lee 1 became an
instructor lu the law department One
Morning General met me on the
nunpus and In his kindly way asked
me bow I was getting on. I replied
that I was making It very well, but
made some allusion to the dull boys In
the class.
“‘Mr. Graves,’ said General Lee tn
his quiet, serious manner, ’I hope you
will follow the stage driver's rule.’
•“What is that'.'’ l asked. I could not
000 how any rule of the driver of a
gtagscoa* h could be of value to a law
teacher.
“‘Look out for the poor borses, sir,’
replied the general, and he bowed with
bls usual courtesy and luiseed on. I
have always tried to look out for the
•poor horses.’"

Professor Graves, for his conscientious

said Professor Graves. “I have been
I walking with him when be would see a
