When the Civil War grew from fear into a reality, he espoused the cause of the Confederacy. Dr. C. Alphonso Smith says: He was a man of rooted convictions, but without bitterness. The prayer of his heart was for peace, as in 'ora Pace.' SO kindly was his nature, that even during the awful days of Reconstruction his word-painting of men and matters of the times contain no violent harangues. They were for the most part harmless caricatures Of incidents, many now forgotten, which appealed to his sense of humor. His soul was able to rise above the turbulent times, and sing.
