reached ns that South Carolina’s dis
tinguished son, Honorable Wade Hamp
ton, who has for so many years illus
trated that grand old State not only in *
the civic and political fields, of endeav
or, but on the sanguinary field of bat
tle has shown himself to be a patriot
and a military chieftain, has just closed
his earthly record and gone to that
“bourne from whence no traveler re
turns,” leaving a proud State humbled
by the dispensation of Divine Provi
dence; and
Whereas we sympathize with the :

Resolved, That m the death of this 1
distinguished citizen the Palmetto -
State has lost a noble son, the South a j -
worthy defender, the nation a wise and
conservative statesman, and democracy
an able and zealous exponent. i
Resolved, further, That the people (
of South Carolina, and throughout the .
Sunny South, owe him a debt of grati
tude for the redemption of that State *
from radical rule in the dark days of i
1876, when surrounded by glittering <
bayonets and shining swords of United j
States soldiers he stood in the center {
of the Paging storm like a stone waU
and defied the enemies of civil and po
litical freedom, and by his wise conn- 1
sel and patriotic words saved his State (
to democracy and his people and re- r
stored her to peace, order and prosper-
ity. i
Resolved, further, That his name is
the vfery synonym of honor, and the fu- '
iure historian will love to tell of his
valor and no doubt will represent him
as holding up the crumbling pillars «
and falling arches of the great Temple j
of Liberty, while the Goddess, clad in v
the dark habiliments of mourning will „
be represented with her eyes streaming a
