geenth C. ".
Gray haired veterans and bright>eyed wo-
men and children filed the neat little Memoir
rial Hall in North Haven yesterday afternoon
to join in the services of Decoration Day.
The veterans of the old Fifteenth occupied
the front seats. Upon the platform were
piles and arches of fragrant flowers grouped
about piano draped with the American flag
and before 1t were tables banked with Elacs,
buttercups, snowballs, honeysuckles, etc.
Stacks of muskets bearing swords and how-
ers were set about the speakers stand
Streamers of red, white and blue hung from
the walls and ceiling A procession of chill
dren carrying flags and flowers opened the
Memorial Day exercises and after pray
er and singing by the children quartette
composed of Messrs. Langdale, Bush, Smith
and Bennett of this city finely rendered
"Tenting on the Old Camp Ground" The
roll of honor was read and Rev. D. Henry
Miller, ex-chaplain of the Fifteenth Conuec-
ticut Volunteers, delivered an affecting ora
ton, which brought tears to the eyes of many.
He said: Comrades, many years have passed
since last addressed yen as chaplain.
come to you to-day to say, all hail We
gather to scatter the blossoms of the season
upon the graves of our departed countrymen.
We are exalted with holy patriotism when
we contemplate those who brought their sao-
rifices to freedoms cause. They marched to
q soldiers death or a conqueror's feast.
Their brave and noble souls have passed be-
yond the shock of conflict. Shoulder to
shoulder they stood, and to them we offer
tribute. With subdued emotion we know
God and his angel keep them in sweet sleep.
The patriot and hero commands the homage
of earthly monarchs, and will until time has
no use for his scythe and cycle, and lies
down to die. Honor to whom honor is due;
write it in letters of light, and teach it to
your children"
After the close of the services process
sion was formed and the soldiers graves were
strewn with buds and blossoms.
The printed programmes distributed about
bore on the title page a fine view of the
Memorial hall building, the names of the
president of the day, Ezra L. Stiles, and the
marshal, Alfred A. Howarth, and the follow
ing lines:
o house Of many mansions, whose bright halls
Are entered by the portals OF the grave;
Could we but see within thy radiant walls,
The mansions OF our unreturninR brave,
Their last 0ncampment, soldlerty concfaVe
What tabernacles glow with whittier light,
What purer gems than those their footsteps payer
All! Guard them well, their glory Is their right
At length the heroes rest to crown the heroes fight
