That was a nice idea to fit up and par
tition off a department in the adjutant
generals quarters at the state house,
wherein to display the battle flag standards
and colors of the Minnesota regiments in
the late war. This is being done, and they
will be so exhibited through glass cas-
ings that all may get good view of these
more and more priced flags which the
brave Minnesota boys bore through many
a leaden storm of death, to victory, and
beneath whose shot-pierced folds so many
patriot sons went down to death. We
should ever keep in remembrance those
who died, bear wounds or lost their vigor-
GUS manhood in the preservation of the
country and the blessings we enjoy; and
without luminosity towards our misguided
fellow countrymen, this is good way
among other methods of keeping their
memories green.
