So eventually he did give up the long
concealed agreement between Abner G..
Hall and his false friend, establishing
at least the moral justice of the widows
claims, upon which the name of Michael
Mccartney appeared as witness. And he
also dictated a detailed confession of
the UNANIMOUSLY treacherous transaction,
which John Latham wrote out and had

his signature was almost illegible. Kit

Memorial Day, observed by our people

Memorial Day, observed by our people
llst Saturday, was quite q "big day" in the
city. Many came in from the country and
Joined in the sad pleasures of the occasion.
The old Veterans and Sons OF Veterans,
Camp w. w. Humphreys, met at the
Court House about II a. NJ. and marched
from there to the Opera House. Many
ladies of the Ladies' Memorial Association
and others had preceded them, and when
the reserved seats had been been filled by
the Veterans and the Sons, there was
scarcely standing room left. Eloquent
speeches were made and soul stirring
songs were sung. Col. jag. A. Hoyt, Of
Greenville. Mr.. T. ]. Mauldin, of Pick
ena. Rev. w. R. Richardson, Gen. M. l..
Bonham and Mr. J. K. Hood, Of this city,
occupied the stage. The stage was taste.
fully decorated with Confederate and
United States flags and flowers, n con.
spicuous on either side of the stage we're
pictures of Lee and Jackson. In the
background but quite conspicuous was a
Confederate flag that had seen active SER
vice and bore the scars Of bloody conflict.
After a fervent prayer by Rev. MIR. Rich
ardson, the exercises were opened by two
delightful little speeches by Masters Thos.
F. Hill and John Will Hubbard. These
little fellows entered fully into the spirit
of the occasion and spoke with ali the fire
Of budding Southern soldier boys. The
speeches by Col. Hoyt and and Mr.. Maui
din were both eloquent and impressive.
Feelings of patriotism and ardent love for
the departed heroes ran high, and the
forms Of the Veterans and SonH, as they
passed out and about the streets could be
seen to take on more of q military bsar,
ing. In the afternoon the Veterans, the
Sons, the Ladies' Memorial Association.
the schools and nearly everybody else met
at the Graded School building. From
there they marched to the Presbyterian
C%hurchyard, the Catholic Churchyard,
then to the Baptist Churchyard, and then
to Silver Brook Cemetery. At each place
three salutes were fred by the Cadets Of
the Patrick Military Institute, while low
ing hearts and hands bedecked the graves
of our dead heroes with beautiful flowers.
The shades Of evening caught many still
lingering beside the hallowed spots where
rest the remains of their departed loved
ones. It is to be hoped that interest in
such occasions will continue to grow, and
that the noble efforts Of the Ladies' Memo
rial Association to perpetuate the memo.
ries of the gallant dead will be supported
