While the orator thus pledaed with his bearers there was a deep: tearful silence. Stretching ont I his arms straight from his sides, he lifted np bis voice and cried, j "Oh, if the great heart of North Carolina would only get under my bands!" And then with a de vout benediction upon a tear smitten audience, he bowed low, saying. " I bid you one and all good-oye."
