Perhaps Ethan Gray wished at that
moment that it were no sin to fall
down at the feet of Abraham Lin,
coin and worship him. But military
rules are strict, and he had been well
trained; so he merely made a sol
|dier's salute to his superior officer
and turned awsy. With an air and
tone, half of apology, Lincoln said
to Meade, as the soldier retired:
'This boy was as dear to him as
my Willie"
The bearded lip trembled and the
sentence was never finished.
just as the bier paused beside a
new grave, a tall, swart soldier knelt
with the kneeling group around it,
and the little coffin was again opened
that Ethan Gray might look once
more upon his boy. Half an hour
later and the earth would have shut
from his sight forever the precious
remains.
When the golden grain ripens in
the helds, and the fruit hangs mel
low and ripe in the orchard, Ethan
Gray will return to his family, and
scenes of war and strife will grow
dim and far away in his memory;
but ever, in his heart of hearts, will
he cherish that name that every true
American reveres.
