The Comet of last week contains
the Eulogy on the Life and Services
of Henry Clay, delivered before the
Legislature of Mississippi on the 11th
of October,1952,(twenty-eight years age,)
by Col. A.K. McClung,  We
were on of the hundreds who were
present and in breathless silence heard
Col. McClung deliver that Eulogy;
and although it reads well in the
Comet now, we cannot but remark
that the clarion voice of McClung
gave it a ring and an effect that –
Newspaper cannot convey.  Gov. Foote
Judge Sharkey, W.A. Lake, A.Burwell, 
Fulton Anderson, and a number
of the State of that period,
were present on the occasion, and we
remember, warmly congratulated
and complimented the orator as he
descened form the stand after the
reading, Gov.Foote, (who was then
the Governor of State) being the first
to advance and do so.
