single case happening in the last twenty
years where any lady or gentleman has been
annoyed or insulted going to or returning
from church, or while walking through the

To say, has never heard OF case OF the kind
taking place. The conduct of the old soldiers
10 the visitors on all occasions has been
courteous and respectful, and / believe the
citizens OF Washington. great many of
whom drive daily through the grounds, will
say so. In relation TO the assault On the col
ored woman, il is hardly worth noticing;
however, II is this: She had been in the COM
pany of an old inmate over sixty years of
