Tw o Little Grand-Daughters of Sen ator Vance I'nveiled Statue Which is a Work of Art and an Excellent LikenessTremendous Crow d Pres ent. Haleigh. ?P'.-cla1. The superb bronze statu cf Vance wan untreiled on Wed nesday, and was greeted by the enthu siastic cheers of a taut crowd. Mr. R. H. Battle. Governor Vanco's private secreiary. made the formal ca tion, which covered the whole life and career of the great commoner. Or. H11 gene Daniel offered the prayer. Col. Thomas S. Kenan was thief marshal and introduced the speaker. The two little granddaughter of Senator Vance unveiled the figure. The statue is a splendid work of art, as well as a fine likeness. The. statue stands in the Capitol square, midway between the east front of that, building and the boundary cf the square, while the noble memorial erected by the State to its Confederate dead, -Fir.-t r.t liethel. Last at Appo mattox," stands at the western front. The movement to erect a monument to the Senator took shape ?oon after his death, and was begun as a populir one. In this way about $2,500 was raised. The Legislature of ISM came to the aid of the movement by appro priating $5,000. and with the $7,500 it was decided to sec ure a statue. There was a lively competition by artists lust s immer, no less than 12 competing, but Henry .1. LTiicott, of Washington, w. 3 the winner. Mrs. Vance, the widow, admired his model, which was a study from the best photograph, ard made frequent visits to Kllho't s rtudio. She also followed closely the work on the full-sized cliy model. This plea e 1 her, as it also did the two committees, one appointed by the Legislature, the ether by the citizens who ha I made contri butions. The statue is S 1-2 feet in height and stands upon a base of granit, fr tm Mt. Airy, da., the ba.-e being of equal he'ght. It was cast I y the (lorham Company, at Providence, R. I., and when two members of the minmiUeo went there to inspw t it in .lune one of them exclaimed as they first viewed it: "There's Vance!" This exclamrtion was made by Richard H. Rattle, who during the 1110-t trying period of the Civil war wis Vance's private secre tary, and who for nearly forty years w?s one of hi-- mod intimate friends. When the statue was put ill position last month the f w h: saw it made Ihe same remark. Vance's personality was very striking. Yhe likeness of the face and head is the feature of the work One the base is the one word "Vance" in hold letters. That one word is enough. In bold relief it stands out, tvplcal of trie man who in war or In peace was always for his beloved North Carolina and North Tarolinians. The head is lion-like, yet kindly In expres sion. The artist has hapnllv caught the bearing of the man and his true manline.-s of face, form find pose, Solvjiijfthe Ncg;ro Problem. Detroit. Midi., Special.
