I do not know that I have ever read a phrase that better describes a great, loving, overflowing heart than that — the loving kindness of the wayside well. He fitted into his time because he was great enough to hate slavery without hating slave-holders. And do you know that that is one of the God-like things to which man should aspire — to hate wrong and love the wrongdoer? To recognize honesty on the other side as well as on your side, and let your fight be against wrong. (Applause. ) My friend...s, I do not know of another man anywhere who was his equal in depth and breadth of view. Born in Kentucky and reared in Illinois, he seemed to have been pre- pared for the great work he had to do. He loved the southern people, but his heart revolted against the institution of slavery, ' He wanted to get rid of slavery and he did not want to hurt any- body who differed from him on the question. A great man in a great time ! But there were two sections of the country, and they differed upon a great question, and there was honesty on both sides.
