The crews of the gig and yawl,
The bearded man and the lad in his teens,
Carpenters, coal-passers—all.”

The second half of my political life has been to rebuild, and to get rid of the despotic and corrupting tendencies and the animosities of the war, and other legacies of slavery.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
