Abstract:

This article looks at the life of Samuel Augustus Hale, characterized as \"Samuel Hele, Esquire\" in Joseph Baldwin's The Flush Times of Alabama and Mississippi. The article is mostly biographical, but also establishes the parallels between Hale and Hele, and discusses Hale's value as a character in being a representation of the excitement of Southern life, as well as serving as an example of the best New England contribution to Southern society.
