Francis Rives Lassiter, our late colleague from Vir- ginia, was a native of that Commonwealth, of old Virginia lineage. He was reared among a people noted for their geniality, their hospitality, and those fine traits of char- acter embodied in the general term of Virginia gentleman. [22] Address of Mr. Slemp, of Virginia He was born in the reconstruction period, during the transition from the old to the new South, and therefore had no personal experience of the great struggle through which our ...country went to perfect an indissoluble Union. Yet he was near the tragic scenes of the memorable con- flict, near the crater, near the capital of the Confederacy, and near to Appomattox itself. A morning walk for him in his childhood would take him over the parapets and fortifications, the last to be abandoned by the Confederacy in its defense of the constitutional liberty as the Southern people saw it. The war over — the questions arising from the inevitable conflict originating in the Constitution itself settled for- ever in the only way they could have been settled — the Virginia people turned their attention to the new prob- lems brought about by an entire change in economic conditions.
