the soldier—for, His grandeur he derived from Heaven alone, For he was great ere fortune made him so; And wars, like mists that rise against the sun, Made him but greater seem, not greater grow. William L. Wilson. Washington, D. C. Rev. Dr. Moses D. Hoge. The public career of Robert E. Lee forms one of the most impressive and inspiring chapters in human history. In many respects he occupies a place all his own in the military annals of the world. But men are not fully known by thcoming ages. By the admiration they command and by the affection they attract, they inspire and encourage others to the pursuit of whatsoever things are just and true and lovely and of good report, and thus lift humanity to a higher plane.

Hill, and when he returned the General made him sit down beside him on his blanket and put his arm around his waist and joked with him. And later at night of Lee and Jackson warming their hands at the fire and planning the battle of Chancellorsville. And after Jackson was wounded of carrying a note to him from Lee saying the victory was due to his efforts. Lee's greatness. Rev. Dr. M. D. Hoge was called upon by Major Stringfellow to respond to the toast: In memory of General Lee—great as a man, great as a soldier, and greater still as an exemplar of Christian life. The Doctor said he would reply by telling what his friend, Major (now Dr.) Smith, was too modest to relate. That was that after General Jackson was wounded that Major Smith shifted his own body so as to put it between the wounded General and the men who were firing on him. As to the toast, he could say, i

the Society met at Richmond, in the Capitol, in the Senate chamber, at 8 o'clock P. M., October 29, 1873. After prayer by Rev. George Woodbridge, D.

the day I noticed that General Ewell became excited to such a degree that I spoke to Dr. Morrison on the subject, and finally to him. After awhile he told me with evident emotion he could not listen to the sounds of the battle without fearing the loss of General Jackson, believing his preservation important and necessary to the success of the Confederate cause. It is evident that in 1862 Ewell appreciated Jackson. Confesses his mistake. The first year of the war Ewell told the Rev. Dr. M. D. Hoge that while he knew that Jackson was brave, he doubted his judgment. Subsequently he acknowledged to Dr. Hoge that he had been mistaken as to Jackson's judgment, and, further, that the chances of the South would have been improved had he been made dictator. There can be no question of the effect of General Jackson's unswerving faith and exalted piety, seen in every phase of his life by the soldiers of the Confederate army with whom he came in contact. After the close of the battle
