Decoration Day Observed.

According to the published program
the exercises were carried out nicely
last Friday forenoon. The beautiful
old Gettysburg address was read by
Capt. Grlppen, the monument to the
unknown dead was decorated by John
Farquahr and prayer was offered by
Chaplain Sutherland. Rev. Albertson
in short address very fittingly eulo-
gized the comrades of '6l-'65 and es-
pecially our martyred president,
Abraham Lincoln. The music by the
male quartette and the mixed quar-
tette was very appropriate and appre-
ciated by all present. In the after
noon the program was interferred with
by a severe rain storm coming ND and
Rev. Coffee was not permitted to fin.
ish his excellent speech. The scarcity
of the members of the G. A. r. was no.
ticeable and was probably on account
of the disability of these fast aging
veterans. Taken all together the day
was appropriately observed.

both houses and while we did our best
for it, am sure the credit belongs to

poets which this insures. l shall be
