You marxists aren't familiar with honour but it means something down here.

So honor in the South means that a young man can sneak up behind an old man and beat him nearly to death with a cain?

Up here, young men don't beat up old men, and men fight face to face.

According to historical codes of honor, honor with peers was sought in the situation that means of recourse was a duel. To drunkards, dolts, and other low lifes of society, means of recourse was a beating with a cane.

Senator Sumner = a low life of society, therefore the means of seeking recourse for honor with him was by beating him with a cane.
