He stayed In the Islands five years and endured much. "He was no carpet knight for all the success he had as an aide. While in the Philippines, he succeeded in In ducing his mother to Join him. It was then I met him. His mother was a woman of fine mind, keen humor and great common sense. Wile had that high self-respect that sustained her In all the burdens she had had to carry In her widowhood after the war, with a family or children to rear and train up to manhood. She had been a beau ty and a toast in her girlhood and early womanhood. Her trials did not embitter her, hut they gave her a clearness of perception, enabling her to estimate properly the real values in life. “After he lost his mother, Archie was constantly quoting her wise and trenchant observations and showed the admirable Influence she had upon his rules of action. His mother was his only bride and the tender rela tion between them of companionship and mutual dependence was sweet and Inspiring to see anil feel. Aide to Roosevelt. “Ordered to Washington to the very Important poet of depot quartermas ter, Archie soon found a place for him self In the busy capital He attracted the attention of President Hoosevelt and became hla aide. Aides are horn and not made. Wide acquaintance, tact, ino feeling, complete suppression of self, the spirit of constant assist ance to another, quickness of percep tion. general information, executive ability, soldierly hearing and loyalty of the purest type are all qualities needed to fill the position. “Archie had them all. He had to he companionable and silent by turns, lie became a member of the presi dent's family. The duties were often trying and called for patience and the utmost good nature. He represented his chief without committing him. "Cardinal Newman said 'a gentle man Is one who always saves another unnecessary pain.’ Archie filled the full measure of such a standard. Ho enlarged and perfected the records of the White House which preserved the personal story of the president's life during hie term. He was responsible for the whole machinery for'the re ception slid Introduction of guests. His work wis constant and confining. But tt never tired his interest. He did everything so well that he brought upon himself greater taaki. "His loyalty to two successive pres ident gave hint no embarrassment. Even when differences arose between them, neither ever had reason to doubt the maintenance of the proper attitude on his part towardsthe pres* ent and the past. His sense of propri ety was so fine and his Ideal of duty so high that he solved a difficulty that others could not have met. T do not know- that he could have united so many qualities contributing to hla great usefulness, but for his early experiences. He knew poverty, he knew luxury, he knew men, he knew women; he was broadly catholic and sympathetic. No servant was too Insignificant, no negro tort humble, to escape his Ailndly attention. 'I remember his story of a cook who, In slavery days, had. as she told him. been presented to his mother by her uncle ns a 'hufday present.’ She re mained in the family long after she had Ceased to be able to render service and when she was only a burden and ex pense Archie told tne It was the duty of htmself and his brother to push that old servant's sick chair up and down the sldewarl In order to give her a needed outing In her last years. “He had a sense of humor that made hts soolti most charming and his sto ries of his I’hlllppine and other days revealed his understanding of, and sympathy with, ail humanity.

But he had the self-control that enabled him with entire self-respect to pass unnot iced expressions of prejudice or criti cism toward what he held dear, made thoughtlessly, or upon the as sumption that he was not a southern man ..“I like to think of him as the best type of the new south with its full flavor of the chivalrous and patriotic sentiment of the old south, strength ened by the trials of the war and its consequences, mellowed by success In Its struggles against obstacles after the war, and turned into the deepest loyalty to the flag by the Sapnish- American War, and the sense of a full share in the power and responsibility of the government of the country. “Archie’s fist life purpose was prep aration for the Episcopal ministry, but he became convinced that he was not fitted to be useful in that calling. This was not because he did not love the church or cherish deep religious feel ings. The beautiful service and the forms of his communion appealed strongly to his whole nature. He was active always, whenever he might be in promoting the cause of his church. In Augusta, In the Philippines, and In Washington the clergymen and the bishops felt a personal loss when he was taken. He was a man of the world, but he was so in the best sense, and he found no difficulty tn fulfilling the duties of a Christian and in meet ing every social requirement. "Archie went to his oeatn In a great disaster that attracted the attention of this world. We do not know ths de tails, but we know that women and children were rescued and he went down with the ship. Returning from a much needed vacation, full of what he had seen and enjoyed, he was hasten ing again to take up his duties In the beautiful and stately white house that should know his earthly form no more When 1 heard that many were lost, I knew that Archie would never return. “He would have selected no other death, had he been given a choice. He 1s preserved to us in his manly beau ty, in his soldierly form, In his kind ly attitude of help, in the discharge of his highest duty. Thus he is in the memory of us all. Sad as his end seems how happy in fact. “This bridge, on the site of which for years there has been a bronze me morial of another sacrifice of a life for a life and of another hero, fur nishes a most appropriate means of expressing the love that his fellow townsfolk bore and hear to Archie live and dead, Standing on the plain, slop ing gently up to tn the sandhills where where he wns born and which revived his fondest memories. It will remain forever to record the story of his high est duty nobly done."
