Of all the speeches I heard that day Col. Lane's was the most impetuous and eloipient. In person he was tall and slim, in many respects copy of Abraham Lincoln", though not quite so large, lie had a high forehead, sunken eyes and thin lips, and unusually long arms and lingers. He had, I remember most distinctly, peculiar way of throwing his head and shoulders back and bringing his long slim arms across his breast as he declared upon his "heart of hearts" the sincerity of his motives, etc. As a story-teller he was unrivalled and his quaint pleasantness and frequent grotesque remarks made him a most captivating speaker. Wherever Henry S. Lane appeared on the rostrum he was received with tumultuous huzzas, and the crowds that gather to listen to his speeches never failed to complain because he quit too soon.

I11 his hand he held a long stall' and from time to time prodded the ground with it. A large crowd was gathered about him and as I came up the ex-Senator and exGovernor were fairly sparkling with wit and humor, and kept the bystanders convulsed with laughter. Tin/next, dav however, he appeared in the convention in his usual neat and* tidy condition, and taking an active and prominent part in all the proceedings. the last time I met Col. Lane .was at the National Republican Convention at Philadelphia, in .June. 1 .*7"J. lie and Col. li. Thompson and their wives a to in a tendance at (he (ii'.neral Conference as well as to the Republican convention. Thev remained for several days after tlie close of the convention slopping at the Conlinentinlllotcl, where mv wire and were staying. Two better and. more appropriately dressed gentlemen never saw than these two Hooker Statesmen, each being clad in an elegant black cloth dress suit which became him to perfection. Their conduct and gencrappearance were graceful, pleasant, anil at the same,time dignified and .circumspect. in all the atl'airs of the State 6f ',Indiana. whether public or private, in which Coi. Lane took a part, he was faithful and true. He retlected great credit upon all the positions he tilled, and his name is a synonym of honest integrity and patriotic endeavor the country over. A better man Indiana has never had ami in the future it will be hard to lind his equal. In both houses of the National Congress he took at once a conspicuous and influential place and stamped his individuality upon the legislation of his country.
