General Wheeler arose from his old saa,
and asked for recognition.
'Mr Speaker" he called. 81 ask unanimous
consent to speak for five minutes"
But the speaker disregarded him. Every eye
was now riveted on the dimlnutIve form OF
the grizzled veteran of two wars, Mr.. Payne
moved recess for ten minutes.
Pending that ask unanimous consent TO
speak for three minutes" demanded General
Wheeler.
The speaker then turned towards him for
the lrst time. and looking straight into tho
eyes OF the general. ignored his request COM
petey. putting tho motion OF Mr.. Payne
and declaring it carried Press Dispatch.)
On sartiago's sultry field weakened soldier
lay.
His slender frame was fever-r acked. his locks
were tngcd with gray.
But. nh. his heart was young with hope. his
MAD devoid Of Tear.
And when the notes of battle fell upon his
listning ear,
He cried Bring me a horse" IN tones so
resolute. though weak.
That no ono there that day denei Joe Wheel
ers right TO speak,
Ho sprnng into the battles front and urged
his soldiers on.
Although he'd won ynl'rous crown In years
And by his side there bravely rode. straight
into Deaths Jaws
His Eon who volunteered to fight In Free
doms holy cause.
And when they passed that day In sight OF
Morro's gloomy peak
Twas felt that Fighting joe had earned
unhonnded right to speak.
But that's not all. Far down below. where
dead and wounded lay,
joe Wheelers daughter took her stand 10
watch and work and pray.
She soothcd the pain by bullet wrought. TO
dying she gave rest,
An angel to those suffering men--ths Red
Gross on her breast.
He gave his nll--himself, his son. his daugh-
ter. woman weak
To be denied when he came home. the paltry
right TO speak.
But mind IT not. Joe Wheeler: you have
reached the peoples heart.
And when you've aught to say TO them. BIO
sure they'll do their Dart:
Wheneer your tones to them are raised. no
man viii say YOU nay.
Nth Lated breath and Bonded head they'll
listen. come what may.
So lift your voice from now till you. the gates
OF heaven seek,
For. Fighting Joe" you've earned the right
