With the father of his country.

‘At the close of this remarkable era and in the midst of stirring events Robert E. Lee appeared, born upon the same spot with the Father of his Country and destined to the same glory if not to an equal success.’ [151]

The speaker then rapidly ran over the events of General Lee's career up to the civil war, and spoke eloquently of his patriotic devotion and distinguished services as a soldier of the Confederacy.

Richmond, VA. 1890.
