To the Memory of the Patriots of the
Civil War.

1.-THE following poem, which was read in the
park on Decoration day by DE-. King, was
composed by r. A. Williams, editor of the
Vineland Times ,
All honor to the gallant men who for Old
Glory fought,
Who freely sacrificed their lives when treason
trouble wrought,
When brother strove with brother, men of
their blood and kin,
And each one called on God to bless the cause
they entered in.
-Four years of deadly conflict when thousands,
thousands fell,
Our land which had been blest of Heaven
became q troubled hell,
Then hate usurped the place of love, but now
those lays are DER,
Ger all the land the Stars and Stripes wave
in the breeze once more.
In city, village, country town, where e'er our
soldiers lie.
We leave our wreaths upon the graves, our
prayers ascend on high;
We would not If we could recall the dear ones
to our side.
Nay, we rejoice that patriot hearts so Loyalty
nave died,
Then gently place your tributes down, the
summer times fair lowers,
And tell the story of their deeds for this fair
land of ours.
For men who died upon the sea, who rock in
nameless grave,
We drop a tear in mournful pride for those
who died to save.
We cast our tribute to the waves, where sleep
our brave unknown,
Unmarked their place of sepulchre, their
dirge the wild winds moan,
Yet are they shrined deep in our hearts, we
render homage due,
Their souls are safely harbored, our gallant
tarS SO true.
Thou God of battle we would praise thy love
which trial sends,
Who from the beginning dost foreknow how
earthly sorrow ends,
We deemed thy ways were harsh and stern,
but now we see and say,
That thou did'st order all things well, cen
