Lincoln and Lee
“The Southerner”
[Notes]
* The author of this article wishes his name withheld. He is a North Carolinian who has been constrained to revise many of the opinions and judgments concerning the South and its problems held in former years. This will be the theme of his forthcoming volume, “The Re-Education of a Southerner.”
