Excerpt from The Life and Letters of M. P. O'connor: Written and Edited by His Daughter The biography of one, whose public career is closely identified with an exciting period in the history of a State, whose energies were dedicated to her service, and whose memory is associated with her redemption from the misrule, which succeeded the Civil War, is interesting and instructive. In addition to this, is the value of the first published collection of my father's orations and public speeches, which faithfully reflect the local and political interests of historical and most interesting years. Few struggles in the history of the State of South Carolina, will be recalled by more important events, than those which were compressed within the life of the subject of this memoir. He was known to the people of his State, as a leader in the movement of 1876, as one of the foremost figures in that desperate, but successful struggle of the State's civilization, as one bf its victorious exponents, and as an orator, whose eloquence won National recognition.
