In 1886 an oid hope was revived in Col. Hoyd. He wanted to enter the diplomatio service. When Lincoln was president be tendered Col.

Boyd started to Washington to accept the place, but when he arrived in Terre Haute. 1: 1 "resident Lin- coln was assassinated anu we was but appointed. This is why he asked ilar. rison to appoint him as minister to Venezuela, and Secretary Blaine, bus personal friend, prounsed him the place. Blaine and Harrison had their first fall out about that time, and the Erst thing Col. Boyd saw lo the pa- pers when be arrived home was that William S.

That Col. BorD failed to attain the position ... of a. conspicuous. political leadership was dne to his independence of thought, word and action-to bis impatience ' at the , impositions' of a
party discipline that demanded abso. Inte concurrence and obedience" rather than to the absence of ability or lack of sagacity. His cariler polit- ical life was cast in a mould of re- Irstress partisanship, val advanced in years. be tempered usporities of his political!

front of bitter melon born of the troubious period of DA- tions: Mo in which h's punte career had its beginning, he advanced to a broader outlook which, though it did not demand the surrender of an iowa of honorable loyalty to party, inspired him with a generous consideration for the opinions of others.
His career in congress," un autre- quent high piaty in the cơ party and the crowning life as the diplomatic representative of bis country in an important capacity all testify to an order of shüity which wrung recognition that would have been freely accorded to larger measure had he been more amppasits to dictation and less fretful under the exactions of a- partisanship that made blind, un- reasoning acceptance of 1
dogma the gauge of reward."
But it is in social life-in the daily commingling between "men on a plane of good-fellowship which ignores the petty barriers of political differences and class distinctions-that he will be missed. Uniformly considerate, genial and cheery, he was everywhere and at all 12ia - a welcon é companion. . The kindly side of his nature was afra.> exposed. and the humblest man. whether black or white, appealed an contalenty to his sympathy und gem: osity as the one who wore the badge of place and prosperity. While the community in which he was honored and esteemed may not by expressions osmaniye mitigate the ben .. . row that is rendered douoly poignant by the ead surroundings of a death so widely mourned, it will to-day with D .h & silent testimonia . : aficiofair remembrance more to be prized than eulogy that finds expres- sion m wurde alone.
