some ten years before, she was the one
person who had comfortcd and assisted

themselves Of the opportunity TO visit the
city. They would come armed with cur
Osity to see whether or not Richmond had
kept up with the stunning pace that latter
day events have brought about. They would
scan critically and closely our material and
social fabrics. and returning TO their homes
take back either a good or an evil report.
All of this was known 10 the quiet, thought
ful people Of Richmond. IL meant that in
the events Of the past week they were to
make history. and the fearful responsibility
of that wcghiy task in which was involved
So much. whether for good or evil report,
was grayely assumed, and accepting the
great issues Of the occasion, the machinery
for the accomplishment Of the end desired
vas set in motion.
TRIALS AND STRUGGLES.
IL is all over now. and time for a breath
ing spell affords AN opportunity Of review
ing some Of the struggles that were incl
dental 20 the successful accomplishment OF
the work. Very few people know the trials
and hardships that the executive committee
Of the II. +. lee Monument Committee en-.
counlcred That committee was composed
Of Governor Philip W. Mckinney, First
Auditor Morton Marye, State Treasurer \.
W. Hartman, representing the state
resenting the Ladies' Lee Monu-
ment Association. The committee
like many other monument committees
was not blessed with a surplus Of money.
COpy-platc sentiment does not pay ioi
monuments, any more than it does fol
bread, and the committee WAS crampod fol
means. Plans had to be devised to arouse
the people 20 this need, and there actually
was time when, If il had been known
what limited condition the finance;
were in, it is probable that sue
cess would have been indefinitely de
layed. The press Of Richmond gave
discreet aid, in calling upon the people fol
responses 10 the petition for substantial
help, and il held up the hands of the com
mittee 20 ably in this respect, that they be-
gan 10 see the mists in their front melting
away. Then there came the usual train
mishaps. that brought the grumbers 10 The
front. The Maine granite, the crooked col
umn and the statue, received the sharpes
criticism, for Richmond, amongst its othel
possessions, holds a population that pos
sesses the kecnest critics in the world.
When the time drew near and ii was seei
that the statue could he unveiled on the T)ti
Of Nav. the committee placed the details o
the unyeiling under the ausplcies Of the X
r. Lee Camp No. |, Confederate Veterans
and this organization undertook, to prepar,
for the great parade, which even at thu
early day became an assured tact. JOIN

visitors, and volunteer military orgauiza
tiors met and worked at the puzzle betor'
them. AninyitatiOn committee was appoin
ted and II set 10 work 10 please; ticket

places In the line OF march selected for those
who intended 10 participate In the parade
Not the least disagreeable part Of the
whole work was the distribution OF
the tickets 10 the stands. No one
seemed willing 10 undertake this thankless
job, which would have involved making a
score OF enemies. and but one friend--if
that-for every ticket distributed. II was
shifted from one to another, and finally
took charge OF itself, and relieved others Of
responsibility.
Now, when all these things are consider

bates and wrangling they provoked, some
little idea may be gathered Of the labor AS
sumed by the men who were making for
Richmond the history Of the unyeiling Of
Lees statue.
RICHMOND REMEMBERED.
The outcome of their work has caused
every heart IN the South 10 thr0b.
II brought the eyes Of the nation upon
Richmond. and held them fixed. II caused
representative men from every state in the
South 20 come to the city. and while the
prime object Of the visit was 10 honor them
