New Ulm has grown to be one of the
prettiest little cities in the Minnesota
valley. Her people are prosperous,
progressive and happy; the monument
which marks the scene of blood and de-
solution of quarter of century ago
stands to-day in its grandeur as the
symbol of valor, loyalty and constancy,
kissed by the warm rays of sun which
shines upon a united and prosperous
people and touched by the soft breezes
which whisper cheering words of fra
ternal unity and devotion to liberty to
the rising generation. Minnesota is
proud of New Ulm; New Uln is proud
of the monument which has been erect

never be forgotten so long as history
shall record the events of time,-L. P.

defenders who took their lives in their
