When the monument on Bunker Hill
was deulcated, webster was the
speaker, ana SO popular was he and so
enthusiastic the crowd that they began
10 gamer SO ciosely around the stand as
10 threaten the safety of the ladies
VINO were on tne inner circle. Web
sure crled out 1of Inc men to move
PACK, but the vast company continued
TO come nearer ana nearer, until wo-
men shrleked ana iell before the on
coming mass again Webster called out
Tor the men to fan back, but voices
called out, II Is impossible, Mr.. Web
ster' LOT the cfoWd Is so dense behind
that we are pushed forward by
power we cannot resist Then Web
ster raised MS voice so that it could be
heard by the furthest off and shouted:
say STAND pack; there is nothing
ifnposslpie on Bunker Hill.' 1t was
enough the cfoWolng ceased and the
services proceeded. Let ruthless hands
care 70 touch our institutions of lib
erty' let the croWdS who are rushing
10 our SHORES care TO trample under
tnelr feet the principles made sacred
oy the sheddlhg OF so much blood, and
as we crop the tear OF the mourner for
our aead ana preathe prayer for the
cause they oled Tor, we shall find
strengtn 70 orlve them back and de-
fend our land from any encroaching
enemy.
Second-Memorial day is a good time
to pledge ourselves anew to care for
ows and orphans.
The government has done it's duty
nobly and is continuing to do so, but
the mere pension paid out by the gov
eminent is not enough. But the Grand
Army has entrusted the work in the
hands Of those they can trust and who
will not fail to do their full duty-I
mean the Womans Relief CORPS. Wo-
men have never yet failed to respond
when called upon to assist the soldiers,
nor will they ever. In the words of
Lincoln, published in a small volume,
we find this eulogy to women: II am
not accustomed to use the language Of
eulogy; I have never studied the art
of paying compliments to women, but
l must say that if all that has been
said by orators and poets since the Gre
alton of the world in praise of women
were applied to the women of America
it would not do them Justice for their
conduct during the war. I will close
by saying God bless the women of
America" And what the women did
during the war they are willing. if nee
eSSary to do since tho war
