Note 235 — Chapter VIII · SEYMOUR’S PRESIDENTIAL FEVER 1864
Reading edition
"Governor Seymour was an elegant and accomplished gentleman with a high-bred manner which never unbent, and he was always faultlessly dressed. He looked the ideal of an aristocrat, and yet he was and continued to be until his death the idol of the Democracy."—Speeches of Chauncey M. Depew, November, 1896, to April, 1902, p. 105.
