CHANCELLOR COOK’S FACE

Appears on the Confederate Monument to Be Unveiled at Baltimore.

FRANKLIN, Tenn., April 30.-(Special.) – Ex-Chancellor H. H. Cook has been informed of a very pleasing compliment paid to him by the New York sculptor, Ruchstuhl, the designer of the $20,000 monument to be unveiled in Baltimore next Saturday by the Maryland Society of the Daughters of the Confederacy. On a recent visit of S. A. Cunningham, of Nashville, to that city he met the sculptor, who told him that the face used in his design had been copied from the photograph of a 16-year-old Confederate soldier named H.H. Cook, which appeared in the Veteran a year ago. He stated that he had been impressed with it and in selecting a type for the follower of the Lost Cause had chosen that of the youthful Tennessean and requested that Judge Cook send him the original photograph from which the cut was made. Judge Cook granted the request and sent the picture, with a letter of thanks for the compliment.
