NY Dear SRI enclose a letter from
Capt. Humphrey of Faulkton, which
wish you to publish, inasmnch as shall
be frequently asked why did not deliver
the Memorial day address at that place
A month or so SINCE, received "a very
urgent letter from Capt. Humphrey, the
post commander requesting me to make
the address. l accepted the invitation,
expressing my very deep interest in me-
mortal exercises, though regrettlng that I
could not speak as an old soldier. He
very kindly replied that all old soldiers
were glad to hear from those who, too
young to take part in the war, were
nevertheless loyal, and who were to kin
die the fame Of patriotism after the old
soldiers were gone.
The recent reply Of Capt. Humphrey
was rather unexpected. AS d republican
I had delivered memorial addresses fol
twelve years and had never been accused
of descending to partisan politics. an
not an old soldier, but am the son Of

did gallant service in the Army of the
Potomac at the Wilderness, Petersburg

Washington, D. C.
Dear Sir: was fully empowered by QUE
Grand Army Post month ago 10 select
and secure the orator to deliver the Me-
mortal day address at this place on the
Both prox. In accordance with which
authority entered into VI, engagement
with you for the purpose Indicated.
At the monthly post messing last night
the post voted to cancel nay engagement
with you, and for no other reason, and |
fully understood it, except chat you are q
populist.
The opposition to your delivering the
address indicated was led by Mr.. Pckler's
favorite conscript henchman, Bailey, who
was drafted into the army near the close
of the war. sad supported by other
intense Plckler Dartisans.
It was in vain that l, life long repub-
licaa, plead that it was not political
occasion, but day set apart by the
nadoa for the loyal people Of the nation
to Day tribute to the loyal dead of the
nation, and that any loyal man is eligabe
to voice the sentiments of which the day
is indietive.
1t was wholly without effect that l
plead with the action proposed, and
finally consumated. gave the lie TO our
claim that the Grand Army of the Repub
lie is not political institutions; that it
belittled great national day, dedicated
and devoted TO patriotism, to small.
narrow, political affair; that it showed
narrow, blind and bigoted prejudice on
the part of our g. A. r. post, which
would inevitably reflect discredit upon
those who wore the Grand Army button
an emblem of patriotism-and who could
not submerge their political partisanship
and prejudices, even for one day, in order
that all loyal people might unite in pay
ing tribute to the memory of those who
died that their country might live: and
that their action would thus, inevitably,
reflect discredit upon the Grand Army Of
the Republic throughout the nation.
All arguments were in vain (and l am
glad to say there were comrades who
supported me right royally), and your
engagement to deliver the Memorial day
address was cancelled.
l deeply regret the action, not So much
on your account, aud much less on my

own, as the reflection on either or both of
us is as nothing when compared to the
disgrace which it reflects upon-the Grand
Army of the nation. Your invitation was
a public matter; its cancellation and the
cause of its cancellation are equally public
property which you are at liberty to use
as you please, and over which, and over
your action pertaining to which we have
no power or control.
