A Model Welcoming Speech.
The speech of welcome to Ad¬
miral Schley at Birmingham,
Ala., is a model of its kind, and
one of the finest tributes yet paid
to the hero of Santiago. Mr.
W bite said:
“Admirad Schley : 1 am com¬
missioned by your countrymen,
the people of this entire city, to
extend to you their warmest wel¬
come and place upon your brow
all the honors a loving and patri¬
otic people can bestow.
“You have become at once the
idol of the masses. By your cour¬
age and chivalry you have en¬
throned yourself in the hearts of
the people. By your persever¬
ance and energy you located lurk¬
ing and dangerous foe. By your
skill and courage, with the aid of
our inferpid American sailors,
you beached the proud fleet of
Spain upon the shores of Santia¬
go. By this heroic ij^ed you chan¬
ged our gloom and apprehension
into peans of joy and shouts of
victory. You swept away the
of suspense that hung like
a pall in the nation’s sky. You
made for the nation’s flag a place
upon the seas. You placed San¬
tiago upon a plane with Trafal¬
You made for yourself a
place in history beside the immor¬
Nelson. You have succeeded
not only in focalizing the gaze of
nations upon tne American navy,
but by your generous and unself¬
conduct placed American char¬
on the highest plane before
the civilized and enlightened na¬
tions of t lie earth. And when all
was lost to the gallant hut unfor¬
tunate (Jervera you extended to
him a heart of sympathy and a
hand of help. By this tender
c bivaJric deed, you twined your-
self around the bleeding heart of
faraway, unhappy Spain,
“You have won honor enough
for yourself,‘glory enough for us
all,’and after you had won flu
enduring triumph you had the
and chivalry to place
-U •< *i ui\Vi h*-r’y i>n>\v ’ ’
of victory prepared for you by a
nation’s loving hand. Your place
in history will be unique.- In you
the world has found a man great
enough to win imprehensible
fame and grand enough to give it
away. Kings have been known
to cast aside their inherited
crowns, hut,you have divided with
another the immortal renown
which you yourself had'won.
“For these brave, chivalric
deeds, for this generous, gentle
conduct, we honor, we admire, wo
love you. We hid you, with your
loving, noble and devoted wife,
and her friend, thrice welcome to
our city and State. We throw open
wide to you and your party the
gates of our city, the doors of our
hearts. ”
