Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Address Delivered at the Annual Commencement of the South Carolina Military Academy, July 8, 1892
There was one aspect in which this was an equivocal compliment. But it was not so intended, nor so received. On the contrary, it expressed intimate and kindly relations of which it was a pleasure to be assured.
And so, when a desired speaker from abroad failed to be secured for this occasion, and recourse was had to one not from abroad - upon the principle, doubtless, that he could be gotten at any time - he was not hurt by being called upon to fill a gap, but ?attered by the confidence that could rely upon his willingness so to do.
