Jefferson Davis was always true to
his convictions; he was not corrupt;
he died with pure hands and a clean
heart. No corrupt man aver dared

ful integrity. He was a man of

farther than he need to have done.
He laid h\s all on the altar of his

He had his faults, but they were
mistakes of the mind not cric crimes of
the soul.
My colonel Thomas and afterwards mj
general, and R. R. Cobb, was
an intimate dear friend of Davis.

fire and listened to Cobb ns he tola

character of Davis, and there I learn-
to know and to love hime.
Miss Mattie Lee Woodruff sung the
beautiful Solo, “He giveth hfe belov
ed sleep,”
The closing prayer was then made
by Rev. F. M. Daniel, as follows:
Our God—God of our fathers—
God and Father of onr Lord Jesus
Christ, look down upon us a people
assembled here,—and upon all who
are assembled everywhere through¬
out the length and breadth of our
Southern land today. Help us to
draw lessons from the life which Thou
hast blessed us with, from the life as
as well as the death we thus do
mourn. Our memories are fresh as
we are carried back to the days of
Jefferson Davis. Grant unto us such
practical minds and hearts that we
will taught profit by the lesson? Thy be has
us. We people—the pray people blessings for
whom upon ns a lived—the people for

died. O God grant unto them Thy
richest blessings. Especially upon
his bereaved family—upon her who
was faithfnl and true and kind unto
the end—and upon his fatherless
children would we invoke Thy richest
blessings Grant and the Thy tenderest for which care. he

The benediction was pronounced
by Rev. J. T. Hargrave and the au¬
dience dispersed.
