Mis. \ till '1 t est. kow quoted the following Stoi.ewall Jackson said, "He i.i the only man I would he willing ti> follow h!: .dfolded." General Winfield Scott, .-aid. "1 tell you that >f I weie on my death-bed tomorrow find the United States should tell me that a great battle was to he fought for the liberty of slavery of the country, and asked my judgment us to the ability of a commander, I would say with dying breath, let it he Robert K Lee." Some of his soldiers were talking about evolution and whether they were descendants of monkeys or tiot when one of them said: "Well you may be and I may be, but there is one man I know that is not and it's 'Marse Robert,' becuuso he came, straight front Cod." During the World war every nation wus studying the strategy of I ah? and Jackson. The New York Herald says: "Robert E. Lee was an American and the great nation which gave him birth would be today unworthy of such a son if she regarded him lightly." lie is an American und his birthday is a national holiday but it is his own Southland that keeps this day sacred with song and story.

The statue, from which the picture * is made is the last of a series of four, imagining the attitude of the American Aborigine**, towards their con' quvrors and represents surrender, not to human enemies but to a higher power. Cyrus l>allin, born in 1861, is a westerner and became familiar with the life of the Indians from childhood and has since brought his memories in concrete form.
