An Appeal for the soldiers, Monument

In his Decoration Day address. at Union
Chapel Judge d. w. Howe of this city, after
reviewing the sufferings and hardships of the
soldiers in the late war, made the following ap-
peal in behalf of the proposed monument:
Ought we not to honor the memory of these dead
heroesg Surely their memorywill be honored In all
ages poets will sing and painters will paint and
schlptors will carve their heroic achievements. What
they did is craven the eternal tablets of time.
But what shall we do now? 1t is proposed to erect
monument to them. That is as little as can do
All nations have done that much for their heroes. We
want to do this that there may be something show
to future ages that appreciated what they did foe
us. We want to erect an enduring shaft upon which
there shall be craven something that the children of
these and their children children in after times
may read something that will be lasting evidence for
all time that not ungrateful people.
My friends, let appeal to you TO unite your purse
strings and give freely You that are blessed with
abundance think of your broad acres of your fields of
waving grain, of your well-fed barns of your com
Portable homes, of your dear wives and little ones
gathered about the family hearth and then think of
the dead soldier; think if he he had been spared how
he might have been as prosperous and happy you;
think of his aged father think of his mother think of
his wife think of his little ones; think of the vacant
place about the resde where he sat- that never
never, never can be filed; think of all this my friends
and then remember that in such high and holy
this the Lord loveth a cheerful giver.'
