INSCRIPTION FOR: THE Grant
MONUMENT


Don Piatt suggests the following:
OF obscure origon and questionable training,
He held himself -aloof from parties.
And patriotical ~
Had no principals.
Entering the army,
He fought bravely and won renoxn
By making the road to Richmond
highway of human bones.
Happening to be the first in command
When the Confederacy fell,
From sheer exhaustion,
A greet people made him President.
He proves bis science
By reaching into the unknown
For his Cabinet
He was generous,
And, 10 those who brought him gifts,
He gave fat office;
And charitable
For he fed his family at the public crib;
Aud lives immortal as the only man
Who ever helped
A brother Law.
This monument
Is built
or protected copper and
Monopoiised pig iron
BY grateful few,
Who fattened famously
While the people starved.
Don Piatt is an out -and-out Repubiean r.
He says that General Lee is 50 dignihed

pared with what he says Of Grant in the
