BYDAUGHTERS OF THE REPUBLIC

Has to Say of the Management Of
the Confederate Home.
acceptance OF Gavels.

The following were the speeches
delivered by Lieut.. Gov. Brown
'ng and Speaker Sheriff. in re-
celving the gavels presented by
the Daughters of the Republic of
Texas;
Lieut.. Gov. Browning said:
Daughters of the Republic of
Texas, Senators and Representa-
tives: 1t has been truthfully said
that "the Republic of Texas was
born mid the clash of arms and
rocked in the cradle of war"
When that little band of patriots
promulgated the declaration of
independence of Texas, and est TAB
lished a provisional government
for the direction of its govern
mental affairs, the Republic of
Texas became political entity,
but it had neither credit, money
nor other means with which to
organize, equip and maintain an
army for its defense. However,
1t was then, as now, a country of
limitIess resources, and its brave
men, hardly waiting for a call,
sprang into line and thus formed
the army for the protection of
the people and the preservation
of the republic. These soldiers
were without uniform, and no
military uniforms or beautifully
Furnished brass buttons or gilt
tering shoulder straps indicated
the rams -guthoritv-of their
so4nceTs. On the contrary these
officers often appeared in tattered
clothes, such as the common SOL
diers wore. No wall of indigna-
ton was ever heard to go up from
that army of brave and noble men
that they had been "forced to live
on hard tack, bacon and coffee
for days." because some shipping
officer, whose duty it was to for
ward provisions to the army, had
neglected TO properly attend to
his duties. No, these soldiers had |
to forage" for their provisions
and often had to go hungry. They |
went forth to battle for a pur-
pose and were inspired to great |
efforts by the noble and patriotic
women of this new country that |
were left behind to keep the vigils
of the rude frontier home. Every
day and every night a prayer from
each of these good and true women
went up to God who ruled the
universe to make their army vic
torious in the great and unequal
struggle. The women of the Re-
public of Texas as we'll as the |
soldiers underwent many depriva-
tions and hardships, the greater
part of which forms part of, the
unwritten history of the country.
Having such inspiration and en-
enlargement these men could do |
nothing else but, fight until death
overcame them, and hence the
success of the Texas army. To-
day only a few of those patriotic
women are left among us, and
they and their daughters and |
granddaughters are among us to
inspire and urge us on to great
and heroic dee Is. While we have
no actual war for them to en-
courage US to fight in, yet we do
have a constant war between
right and wrong going on in our
hearts, and | trust that the in
spiration to do right for our
country's good may reach every
representative and senator in this !
legislature.
In receiving this token from

and we'll founded. | concluded l
would take it up myself to make
a visit to the institution without
any preqrrangemeht.
AS the legislature adjourned one
day l embraced the opportunity
of making a visit to the home
with the determination to investi-
gate its condition, and did so, ar
irving there about 5 p. M, select
ing this hour that | might not
only see through the different de-
partmepts, but to also see meal
served that was of the usual bill
of fare.
l called at the office of the
superintendent, Col. II. G. Shell
ley, and to him stated the object
of my visit. He promptly and
cheerfully offered to show lue
through every department and
leave me to make inquiries of any
and all inmates of the various
wards as | might desire.
Alter visiting and making in
quiries through each department
or ward / accepted the invitation
to sample thefood that was being
served and found it all clean, we'll
cooked, palatable and served in
ample abundance. The bill of
fare was, as | remember it, hot
rolls, butter, nice bacon, coffee,
tea, milk sugar, rice and potatoes.
The dining hall is large and
commodiFs and has the appear
ance of a dining room of first
class boarding house. Mrs. Bar
rett, the matron, seemed perfect
ly at home in directing the work
in the dining room and all of the
inmates of whom | made inquiry
spoke in words of praise of her
management.
All the departments 1 found
scrupulously clean, and [ am
frank to say that the average fair
ly we'll to do families of this state
do not have better accommoda-
tions and comforts in their homes
than thosE | found enjoyed by the
inmates the various wards |
Visited; s!s9 oNhserN.'d that
their gffoSsv 6g Was good, clean and
comfortable.
AS l was moved to make the
visit as have above stated, [ feel
that [ owe it to the officers of the
institution to acknowledge that l
was agreeably surprised to be
convinced that my prejudice,
growing ont of the rumors | had
hard, was entirely groundless,
and that the rumors most un-
doubtedly sprung from the few
peevish and irritable persons who
are always found in any large
body of men. But Isincerely be-
lieve that all the fair minded, un.
prejudiced and even tempered in
mates appreciate and enjoy the
management and accommodations
of the home.
In regard to physician of the
home, DR.. l. j. Jones. allinmates
of the hospital and various wards
spoke of him in the highest terms,
both as to his ability and pains
toking attention in minlstering to
them.
| made special effort to ascer-
tain if the condition in which /
found the various departments
was their normal condition, and
was assured on every hand that
such was the case.
