Excerpt from Famous American Statesmen and Orators, Past and Present, Vol. 2 of 6: With Biographical Sketches and Their Famous Orations Another reason why we loved him was that he first loved us. I do not believe a ruler ever lived who loved his people more sincerely than he. Nay, I do not believe the ruler ever lived who loved his ene mies SO well as he. All the insults heaped upon him by the foes Of the government and the haters Of his principles, purposes, and person, never seemed to gen erate in him a feeling Of revenge or stir him to thoughts and deeds Of bitterness. Throughout the terrible war over which he presided with such calm ness and such power he never lost Sight Of the golden day, far in the indefinite future, when peace and the restoration Of fraternal harmony should come as the result and reward Of all his labors. His - heart em braced in its catholic sympathies the misguided men who were plotting his destruction, and I have no doubt that he could and did Offer the prayer Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do! We felt - we knew - that he suffered a thousand deaths in the destruction Of the brave lives he had summoned to the country's defence, that he sympathized with every mourner in this mourning land, that he called us to no sacrifice which he would not gladly have made himself, that his heart was with the humble and the oppressed, and that he had no higher wish than to see his people peaceful, prosperous, and happy. He was One Of us - one with us. Circumscribed in his affectionate regard by no creed or party, or caste, or color, he received everybody, talked with every body, respected everybody, loved everybody, and loved to serve everybody.
