Soldiers Of Ioua. .
The conspicuous and honorable part
yop have borne in the arduous struggle
for the preservation Of our National
Government, has excited the admira-
ton Of your countrymen, and secured
for you an imperishahlc name.
Your consistency and patience so often
tried, your patriotism nnd valOr, uni
versally acknowledged, have culn,inat-
ed in the triumph ofNational authority
and the perpetHity ot the Union our
fathers established. With your bayo-
nets the name of Iowa has been carv-
ed upon the brightest pages. of Amefi-
can history. From the banks of the
Des Moines You fought your way to the
Gulfof Mexico and the Atlanticscahoard
stacking your arms at the close of the
war on the banks Of the Potomac, in
the shadow of the National Capitol.
Such marches, siegcs, and battles the
world has never witnessed before, either
in ancient or modern times. Surprising
in conception or boldncss OF execution
the most renowned campaigns ofCyrus
or Alexander, of Cesar or Napoleon,
they will give historic grandeur to the
age and render immortal the glory of
our arms.
iii the name Of the people Of Iowa,
whose country you have saved, and
whose State you have hOnored, | bid
YOU cordial, heartfelt welcome TO your
homes, and extend to YOU the assurance
of their pride i'm your fame, and their
lasting gratitude for your heroic achieve
ments. NObly have you maintained
the honor of our State in every campaign
and battle, and faithfully redeemed the
reposed in your vaior.-
Looking now upon your thinned ranks.
we are mournfuily reminded OF your
many comrades slumbering in their
lonely graves around the fields OF glory
where they died. Your banners, torn
by the storm and dimmed by the smoke
of battle. we shall receive from your
hands and safely deposit among the
other valued memorials Of your fame.
The memory OF your honorable sears
and many victories will he reverentiy
and transmitted as part of
the common herirape. Soldiers in war,
you return as citizens 10 mingle' with
your friends and engage i'll the pursuits
Of peace.
Committing TO the care OF the gener-
BUS people the widows and orphans OF
those who have fallen, we invoke for
the surviving heroes the continued
guidance of Him who sheltered them
amid the trials and dangers of the war
