A SKETCH OF THE LADIES MEMO.
RIAL ASSOCIATION OF WAKE
COUNTY.
(By a Charter Member.)

Very soon after the conclusion of the
war between the States Involving as it
did ruin to county and bitter dis
appointment and humiliation to our peo-
pie the hearts and minds of the women
of the South turned to the duty of car
ing for the bodies of our soldiers, who
lay on hundred battlefields, or who
were scattered in cemeteries rudely laid
out near hospitals or the sites of former
camps, in many cases exposed to des-
ecration or in danger of being confused
with the Federal dead.
The women of Raleigh were no lag
CARDS in this sacred task, and at a meet
ing held in the Commons Hall of the
capitol, May 23d, 1866, a society was
formed called the Wake County La
dies Memorial Association the object
of the association being to protect and
care for the graves of our Confederate
soldiers.
After prayer and an address by the late
Rev. DR.. Lacy, the following officers were
chosen:
Mrs. l.. OBJ. Branch, President
Mrs. Henry Miller, First Vice Pres-
dent.
Mrs. Lucy Evans, Second Vice-P resi-
dent
Mrs. Robert Lewis, Third Vice Presi-
dent.
Mrs. Mary Lacy. Fourth vice-Presi
dent.
Miss Sophie Partridge, Secretary.
Miss Minnie Mason. Treasurer
The first business of the association
was to choose a suitable spot for the
proposed cemetery; several meetings

ton, being in many respects the most

AS va desire has been expressed by
some members of the Memorial Associa-
ton to know just how the annual dues
are expended, / beg leave to submit the
following report:
\ The history of the Wake County Me-
mortal Association is perhaps the most
interesting in North Carolina-as under
it's auspices much outside work has been
accomplished. 1t was through its eff
forts the Soldiers Home was built, and
through efforts the magnificent monu-
ment that stands at the western gate
of the capitol was erected, the Monu-
mental Association having been formed
of members of the Memorial Association.
When the remains of our beloved
President Davis were carried through
Raleigh to the re-interment in Rich
mond, the Memorial Association, act
ing with a committee of Confederate
Veterans, had the honor of receiving
them: at which time, on learning at a
late hour that the Governor was not
authorized to invite the militia of the
State to be present, the president, act
ing for the association, sent out personal
to attend Several companies accepted
the invitation, and were handsomely en-
tertained at the Marlborough House.
Death has sadly thinned our ranks,
until now only about seventy five of
that noble band of women who organized
the association remain. and from this
number about siXty-three dollars are an
nually collected. Out of this amount
the cemetery is kept in order and the
necessary expenses of Memorial Day are
borne. Yet, having to our credit, as the
treasurer's report will show, an amount
varying from one hundred and forty to
two hundred dollars. To keep in good
condition lot of about three acres, con-
tanning some seven hundred graves, ne
cessarily requires some expenditure OF
money.
The hedges and shrubbery are TO be
kept trimmed and in order, underbrush
cleared away, young trees to Supply the
fast decaying forest and every year set
out such flowers as are suitable to the
place are kept growing. From May un-

A MARRIAGE AT GARYSBURG.

Weldon, n. c., March PA pretty, but
the handsome home of Mr.. w. T. Joyner
at Garysburg, Tuesday. when Mr.. W. d.
Jones, superintendent of the cotton mill
at Roanoke Rapids, led to hymen's altar
the beautiful and accomplished Miss Kate
Carroll JOINER. The ceremony was per-
formed by Rev. J. T. Chambers, rector
of Grace church here. The bride wore
a going away gown of green pastel cloth
and carried large bouquet of American
Beauty roses. She entered the parlor
with her brother, Mr.. L. L. Joyner, and
was met at the temporary altar, which
was lighted by numerous wax tapers,
by the groom who entered with his best
man, DR.. S. B. Pierce. Miss Patty Bell
Summerell was maid of honor and carried
the prayer book from which the service
was read. She was attired in violet crepe
de chine. Little Miss Margaret Ellis car
ried the wedding ring upon an American
Beauty rose.
During the ceremony 80, Promise Me-
was beautifully rendered by Miss Ruth
Mason. The bridal professional, "a Per-
feet Love- was sung as a quartette.
The fair bride was the recipient of
many handsome and costly presents, at
testing the love of her many warm
friends.
Mr. and Mrs. Jones are now on a
visit to Mr.. Jones' former home in Cald-
well county. They will return in a few
days and make their home at Roanoke

ed by suitable stones, and the nucleus
of our endowment has been placed at in
terest Some slight changes have been
made in the details of the exercises of
Memorial Day, which it is hoped will
make those services more solemn and
dignified and more entirely in harmony
with the feelings of those most vitality
interested. 1t is the hope and the pray
er of the older members of the l.. M. A..
that this work be not allowed to die
with the passing away OF its founders,
of the generation which know the birth
Of the storm beaten nation" and which
mourns its fall and whose hearts cher
ish the fadeless glories of the Confeder-
ate flag, but that the younger women
to whom these glories are only tradi-
ton will keep alive the memory of the
men who died for the Lost Cause, but
who died not in vain, for they died for
a great principle, and their blood sends
a roaring vein down through all time
Their reward is in Heaven and their
work is before them"
AS the women who worked and sacri-
feed in the early days of the l.. M. A.
pass from this world may they leave
the work to successors as wise, as mod
est and as faithful as she who now
holds the presiding office in the L. NJ A.
Of Wake county.
The Confederate Cemetery at Raleigh
is the property of the l.. NJ A., having
been given to that association by the
late Mr.. Henry Mordecai, and within
it's enclosure the president and members
of the L. NJ A. have absolute authority
in all matters.
The number of bodies of Confederate
soldiers there inferred is nearly 700. 1t
was GA at the last actual enumeration,
and since then some veterans from the
Soldiers Home, and some from other
places have been buried there.
