See an aged man, with trembling step and his white hair streaming to the breeze, still bravely' stemming the rude stream of life as it beats him from side to side, till at last exhausted he folds his arms and sinks beneath the ruth- less waters. And so Senator McEnery died as he had lived, in the harness and at the wheel. He fell as it becomes a statesman and a . Soldier to fall, at the front and in the battle. He did his dutj% and he did it well. Senator McEnery was a native of Louisiana; was ...an alumnus of Spring Hill College, Alabama; of the Uni- [52] I Address of Mr. CIordox, of Tennessee versity of Virginia, and of tlie United States Naval Acad- emy at Annapolis, Md. He was a graduate of the State and National Law School of Poughkeepsie, N. Y. , and was engaged in the practice of the legal profession till the stirring times of 1861, when he closed his law books and hurried to the tented field. How well some of us still remember those wild, thrilling days, when the war crj' was heard in our land, " To your tents, O Israel, to your tents!" when the drum and the bugle were heard upon almost eveiy hill and in every dale, on everj' mountain and in everj' vale, from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico, and from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean, calling the people to arms.
