Jefferson Davis, President of the Confederate States of America. Sam Houston, Founder of Texas, called him as ambitious as lucifer, and as a cold as a lizard. It was said he was more likely to quarrel with friends than assail his enemies. By war's end, he had become a worse tyrant than he could ever claim upon Mr. Lincoln. For his charge was an empire of bondage, and a republic of suffering.
