Hon. Porter Dale in his address to the
old soldiers at this place Memorial Day
made the following reference to Gen.
Grants tomb: sit is well that with such
imposing ceremony this nation should de-
dictate the tomb of your greatest General;
and when, on the 9th of last April, rode
within the shadow of that splendid struc-
ture and sat for a moment realizing that,
approaching and departing through that
immense throng moved more than fifty
thousand of my country's soldiers, and be-
holding, gay with pennant and banner,
the warships of five great nations, as they
manoevered on the historic waters below,
the grandeur of this unparalleled military
pageant, in day of profound peace, came
upon me with an overwhelming force not
to be expressed, and 1 thought, when the
North and the South strike hands in this
event, it sets flying the echoes of that sill
ent voice, 'Let US have peace" AS the
building of that monument was as free
from hostility as its granite from blemish
there may it stand as eloquent beyond the
military display as the act of the quiet
sleeper within when he turned from the
gates of PROSTATE Richmond without tri-
umphal entry. There may it stand indie
structible beyond the hope of its builders,
and when those granite walls shall have
grown old with centuries may they still
rest on the free soil of a Republic, which
has never forgotten the lesson taught by
the old hero and his followers, but has
built upon it, as his monument rests on it's
a more enduring union and
loyal allegiance. Aye, and as our children,
and our children's children through the
coming ages, shall one by one go up and
gaze upon that splendid mauscleum, may
they stand, as did the ancients In awe be-
fore temple, and breathe to Almighty
God prayer that the teachings of that
place shall go down the perilous tide of
human affairs as long as the stately river
at its base shall bear ships upon its bosom
to the sea.
