Judge Warner represented the town
of Putnam in the legislature of 1895, was
chairman of one of the most import
ant committees, and was one OF the
most able speakers in the house. Those
who had the pleasure of listening to
his earnest appeals for appropriations
to assist in caring for the veterans in
their declining years, and for the cree
ton of monuments to the memories of
those who laid down their lives that the
nation might live, will appreciate the
opportunity to hear Mr.. Warner at
this time, and those who have never
heard him who mill take the trouble to
visit Orange upon this occasion we be-
lieve will feel repaid in listening to one
who is still fired with the patriotic
spirit OF 81 to IS. All Veterans, Sons
of Veterans and citizens of adjoining

these services. Judge Warner will be

screams of women, the neighing of the

furnished sounds which were fit ac-

like shells. The republican convention
auditorium was almost the only build
ing in the whole area for twelve blocks

aged.
"The worst damage appeared to be in
Short avenue, where every structure
was completely wrecked. An immense

as one would twist wire around his
finger, and other evidences of the

to be seen almost everywhere"
