Excerpt from A Discourse Commemorative of the Life, Character, and Genius of the Late Rev. J. H Thornwell

The glory of man is as the flower of grass; our fathers where are they: and the prophets, do they live for ever? The men who with their heroic deeds make history to-day, become its theme and song to-morrow!

This rude outline, dashed upon the canvass, it is the privi lege of one who loved him well to fill up now with cautious touches; and if the affection of the artist should impart a warmth of coloring to the picture, the truthfulness of the portraiture will yet, we trust, vindicate itself to those who knew the original.
