He was an old time Georgia gentle
man, high-toned, honorable, polished
in manners, genial and generous, he
commanded to the last the highest
respect of all who knew him. He
possessed a tine figure, being several
inches over six feet in height, and
before the weight of age was laid
upon him, erect and elastic. Of tine
presence, courteous manners and tine
integrity, it is no wonder that he
was popular. During hi* residence
in Meriwether, he represented that
county in the State Senate two or
three times, and always without ef
fort or solicitation on his own part.
He was a devout Christian, having
