Amid a brilliant and rising group of young Virginians he had already been stamped as a hopeless failure. His father had given him a splendid classical education and had dem tined him for some such profession as the law or ministry. But Henry had smashed the paternal hopes by refusing to follow any of the courses laid out for him. § At eighteen he proceeded to put a further Warrier between himself and success by marrying. Marriage at eighteen scemed an ideal form of career y suicide, even'in those old times. With a family to support, it was needful for Henry to find work of some kind, He tried his hand at farming, an occupation held In high esteem by eighteenth century Southerners.

He found he could sway a jury to his will, even though he could not raise tobacco or eel’ groceries, His eloquence won case after case for him. It swept him iato politics.

And Henry threw himself heart and soul into the struggle, His speeches, his personal influence his plan for knitting the scattered colonies together by “Committees of Cor- An Immortal 3 respondence’—all these speedily made him a man ef endorse mark. The climax came when—before the Virginia Com- vention in oben ia TH hte glorious “Liberty or Death” oration brought him death« less fame. The rest of his career is part and parcel of our country’s history. ‘he lazy Failure of early life all at once was recognized as the foremost orator of his century and one of America’s immortal patriots, nath Tagore, poet, seer and prophet, steeped in mystic lore and knighted with modern honors. Homeward bound to India he set foot first on familiar Old World soil in Japan, and there ecught to summarize his impressions of this wonderful New World. He found the United States on tho road to Imperialism, not in a spirit of conquest, but aiming toward that Utopia of world peace. Curiously, too, he saw a nation, always accused of thinking only in terms of materialism, not made more materialistic by ite great war- time prosperity, but undergoing processes of a new thought which looks to greater and higher things. “And,” added the poet, “America is destined to be the meeting place of the East and the West.” Gone is the glory of Galata Bridge, where Moslem and Christian have crossed side by side for centuries. Fading is the fame of Suez, where all the world was wont to pass by.
