Excerpt from The Library of Southern Literature
North Carolina, January 11, 1864. His career suggests the significance Of the time, for in his personality are the storm, the lightning and the swift changes Of war. Born in the midst Of the great civil struggle, he reached his most impressionable period in the stern hours Of the Reconstruction, was a college student when the New South called for a new generation, and entered manhood during that wide readjustment, North and South, that has brought forth a nation. He was sensitive in the highest degree, endowed with rare genius for expression, passionately fond Of the tragic and heroic, and drew from his environment the essence Of the Old South both in its glory and its doom.
