Excerpt from The Great Commoner of Ohio: Discourse in Memory of Utherford Birchard Hayes, Delivered in the First Congregational Church, Columbus, Ohio, January 22, 1893
The relations of President. Haves to the Common wealth of Ohio are as I have said, peculiarly intimate. He was born upon her soil; most of his education was gained in her schools; all his professional life was spent in this State; the troops that he led in the war of the rebellion were nearly all Ohio soldiers; Ohio sent him to represent her in the National Congress, and thrice made him her Governor; it was from the Capital of Ohio that he was translated to the White House at. \vashington; and since he laid aside the arduous burdens of government, this State has been his constant home. To multitudes in other States his great services have endeared him; but Ohio has the largest share in his renown. I think it must be allowed that he was her greatest citizen - the finest product, on the whole, of her century of history. That is a large claim. But 1 advance it with some confidence.
