Back from Richmond.

Back from N1cnmOnO.
The Vance Guards returned from
Richmond Friday afternoon, all highly
pleased with their trip and the manner
in which they were treated while there.
No accident occurred to mar their
pleasure and while some of the boys
were little disfgured- and
otherwise-they were "still in the
ring and ready to take the same trip
over again if opportunity offered.
And no less pleased were the noble
Veterans who went to pay tribute to
the memory of the man they loved so
we'll, and who for four long years they
followed as faithfully as patriot soldiers
ever followed trusted leader. 1t was a
great event and the day will never be
forgot by those who witnessed or took
part in the exercises.
1t does one good to hear them tell
about it-how strong men wept as lit
tie children at meeting old comrades in
arms they had not seen since the cur
tain fell on the last act of that sad dra-
ma now more than a quarter of cen
fury ago, as they stood there in the
presence of the counterpart of their be-
loved chief who himself had shed tears
at their sufferings and privations, as
| they recalled the incidents of the past
with which he was SO intimately con
nected. 1t was an occasion for mem
Dry and for tears, and those men, grim
visaged warriors and battled SCARED
veterans as they were, showed by such
demonstration as this the manner o.
mould in which they were cast. The
bravest are the tenderest; and the pur.
est emotions of the heart often find ex.
preston in the tear that floods the eye
Richmond did herself proud last
Thursday, and those of our citizens
who were there bestow the highest
praise on her people whose hospitality
was everywhere so graciously ant
abundantly manifested. But such 6
noble people could not have actet
other than a noble part on such an oc
casion.
