! 1t is my purpose today TO call to
mind why we stand here in this glad
/ sunshine, performing a duty TO those
who fought to preserve the flag. We
must not forget the memory OF those
men who fought and the victories they
won. We stand today in distant Hawaii
and reverence those men after thirty
years of peace for their brave deeds
during the four years of bitter struggle. >"
Judge De La Vergne drew a graphic
picture Of the battles of Chickamauga
and of Ricketts, brigade at Gettysburg.
OF the Wilderness with General Long
street facing the blue column as it ad-
vanced toward his command, with death
inevitable. 1T was then" said the
speaker, that General Longstreet re-
marked, This is not war, it is sacri-
fice.' He carried the memory of the
men back to Cold Harbor. There it
was that the brave men who were TO go
into that engagement spent the night
before the battle writing their names
upon pieces of paper and pinning them
to the backs of their coats. And it is
safe to say" remarked the judge with
fervOr, that none of those pieces of
white paper were made a target for
the enemy. Their faces were toward
the foe.''
In accordance with instructions from
Department Headquarters, the speaker |
read the famous address of Abraham |
LincOnln at the battlefield of Gettys- |
burg:
-Four score and seven years ago our |
fathers brought forth upon this cOnti- |
nenJ new nation, conceived in liberty |
and dedicated to the proposition that |
all men are created equal. Now we are
engaged in great civil war, testing
that nation, or any nation, so
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1896-06-01

conceived and so dedicated can long
endure. We are met on a great battle
field of that war. We are met to dedi-
cate a portion of it as the final resting
place of those who here gave their lives
that that nation might live.
1T is altogether fitting and proper
that we should do this. But in larger
sense We cannot dedicate, we cannot
consecrate, we cannot hallOw this
ground. The brave men, living and
dead, who struggled here, have conse-
Grated it far above our power to add or
detract. The world will little note nor
long remember what we say here, but
it can never forget what they did here.
ct is for us, the living, rather to be
dedicated here to the unfinished work
they have thus far so nobIy carried on.
1t is rather for us to be here dedicated

hearts prompt US to do that which our
orders from headquarters command
This day commentaries a vaIOr on sea
and on land that is illustrious; this day
IS eloquent Of a patriotism that did not
speak only from the lips: the day is
sacred to the almost visible presence
OF that great army Of comrades who,
out OF prison pens and hospitals, camps
and battlefelds, muster today on the
parade grounds beyond the river. And
now, as we, here in this silent camp
ground Of the dead, with sOldierIy
tenderness garland these passionless
mounds, let US recall those who made
their breasts the barricade between our
country and its foes. Let US recall their
heroism and their fidelity in camp, the
battlefield, the prison pen and hospital.
Let the flag for which they fought
and from the shadow Of whose folds
ored, that our country, whose union
and supremacy they surrendered their
lives for, may ever have the fervent
and enthusiastic devotion of every Am
eTIcan citizen. And, as we stand here
before each grave as before an altar, we
pledge our manhood that, so help US
God and the memory OF our departed
shall strengthen in US a more
loyal patriotism.'
The decoration of the graves Of the
dead comrades was followed by an ad-
dress by Judge George De La Vergne, !
who said, IN part:

The members of Geo. w. De Long
Post, G. A. r., should feel that there is
a strong patriotic feeling in the hearts
Of the people Of Honolulu, for the OBJ
servance of Memorial Day, which is es-
sentially American in character. on Sat
urday, was so general as to stamp Ho-
nolulu as a genuine American city.
The occasional light showers in the
morning, while ominous. merely tended
to make the march easier for the men,
as the dust was settled and the atmos-
phere made cooler. From the time the
procession started until it left the ceme-
terry on the return march the sun
shone brightly, but as the line started

who are sick or in distress, and the des-
titute wards Of our order, and to en-
phasize in the minds and hearts of all
who may unite with us the privilege
and duty of patriotism. Friends and
fellow citizens, [ welcome you to this
pubic service. This is to us the Mem

triOtic herOism, of national faith. 1t is
dear to every veteran soldier; it deep

comrades who have gone before, and
that memory makes dear to us that
badge of the G. A r. which we wear
upon our breasts
After prayer by Chaplain VIM. Nc

The exercises began by the reading
OF the ritual by Post Commander r.
Jay Greene, who said:

to the great task remaining before US,
that from these honOred dead we take
increased devotion to the cause for
which they gave the last full measure
of devotion; that we here highly re

probable that after the vicinity of
