Whether as bank cashier, insurance agent, railroad president, or member of this honorable body, he was always faithful to his obligations and ever punctual and attentive to his duties. If there was one characteristic more marked in him than any other, it was his capacity for organ- ization, his close attention to and mastery of details, and his untiring energy in directing and guiding the organization he had created. Thus it was that he gained the prominence he attained in the community in whic...h he lived, and established himself in the confidence of his neighbors. Major Otey served with conspicuous gallantry and ability throughout the entire civil war, commanding in one of the battles the brigade to which he belonged. He was, of course, imbued with the prejudices (if they may be so styled) and perhaps the hatreds of his people. Certainly he had their principles. But when the gallant fight had been made, and the war was over, and all was lost save honor, he gracefully and honestly and sincerely accepted the result and addressed himself to that business career which brought honor to him at home, and ended with his distinguished services in this House.
