W. GAYLES<\/a>,<br \/>\nof Bolivar county. Mr. G., I believe, was born a slave in this State, but has every appearance of one who was raised in refinement. I do not believe he cares to show himself at all times at the front of exciting questions, but he takes a calm and deliberate view of all matters. He was a member of the Board of Supervisors, I think, of his county under Gen. Ames, and at the election of 1871 he was elected by a large majority to the Legislature. His constituents have implicit confidence in him, and will return him to the Legislature next fall if he wishes to return. Were I a strong believer in fore-ordination, I would certainly say that my friend, Mr. Gayles, was foreordained for his present calling &#8211; a Baptist minister. His entire garb goes to make up a preacher. He is short in stature, well built in circumference, and has an exceedingly mild countenance.<\/p>\n"},"caption":{"rendered":"<p>New National Era, April 3, 1873<\/p>\n"},"alt_text":"New National Era, April 3, 1873","media_type":"image","mime_type":"image\/png","media_details":{"width":391,"height":474,"file":"2018\/07\/gayles-2.png","sizes":{"thumbnail":{"file":"gayles-2-150x150.png","width":150,"height":150,"mime_type":"image\/png","source_url":"https:\/\/much-ado.net\/legislators\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/gayles-2-150x150.png"},"medium":{"file":"gayles-2-247x300.png","width":247,"height":300,"mime_type":"image\/png","source_url":"https:\/\/much-ado.net\/legislators\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/gayles-2-247x300.png"},"twentyseventeen-thumbnail-avatar":{"file":"gayles-2-100x100.png","width":100,"height":100,"mime_type":"image\/png","source_url":"https:\/\/much-ado.net\/legislators\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/gayles-2-100x100.png"},"full":{"file":"gayles-2.png","width":391,"height":474,"mime_type":"image\/png","source_url":"https:\/\/much-ado.net\/legislators\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/gayles-2.png"}},"image_meta":{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0","keywords":[]}},"post":209,"source_url":"https:\/\/much-ado.net\/legislators\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/gayles-2.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/much-ado.net\/legislators\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1095","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/much-ado.net\/legislators\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/much-ado.net\/legislators\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/attachment"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/much-ado.net\/legislators\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/much-ado.net\/legislators\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1095"}],"wp:attached-to":[{"embeddable":true,"post_type":"page","id":209,"href":"https:\/\/much-ado.net\/legislators\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/209"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
