MEMORIAL DAY PROCLAMATION.


The Memorial Day proclamation OF
COmmander-in-chief Eli Terrence has
been received at the department
headquarters of the G.. A. r. The
special observance of Memorial day is
urged, and post commanders are asked
to invite the public schools to cooper
ate in the observance of the day. The
proclamation is as follows:
ITO every patriot, Memorial day is
the most sacred of the year, and its
proper observance one of the nations
strongest safeguards.
mo more beautiful or impressive
scene could be witnessed tnan that of
a redeemed nation, ceasing from its
daily toll and gathering around the
graves of its defenders, bearing offer
ings CT flowers and giving suitable ex-
preston of the love and gratitude
which a great people show towards
those who gave their lives in defence
of their country.
$40 every soldier of the Union it is
a day filled with precious memories.
Unlike the dead of other wars, the
Though unseen by mortal eye, they
still walk by our side, and their place
in our hearts remains untitled.
"We rejoice as the dav approaches,
and in ever diminishing numbers low
ingly deck with flowers the multiply
ing graves of our comrades. In broken
column and with enfeebled step we
still carry the flag they loved so well
and march to the same music to
our hearts pulsed with joyous pride as
we realize that the memory of those
who fell in defence of freedom and
the right is immortal.
'sComrades will therefore, in COM
pliance with well established Gust ON,
fittingly observe Friday, May 80, 1902,
as Memorial day.
post commanders are requested to
invite clergymen of every denOmina-
tion, to deliver appropriate addresses
on the Sunday preceding Memorial
day, and so far as practicable posts
should attend divine service on that
day.
Post commanders are requested to
ask the ScholS i'm their respective To-
calities to hold patriotic services i'm
mediately preceding Memorial day,
cooperate with the teachers and
school officers i'm such services. This
duty is of special Importance, for I'M
less the deeds of the father live in the
hearts of the children, the altar of
liberty will be without incense.
The beautiful ceremony of strew-
ing with flowers the waters that run
to the sea. IN memory of our sailor
dead who fell in the cause of the re-
public, is heartily commended. May
the myriad streams as they go laugh
ing and sparkling on their joyous
journey to the sea, carry some forget
me-nOL to those who sleep undisturb-
ed in its restless bosom.
''The Woman's Relief Corps, Sons
of Veterans, Ladies of the Grand
Armv of the Republic and kindred Or
CARNATIONS, and all citizens who SYM
pathize with the spirit of the day. are
cordially invited to unite with US in
its proper observance"

seven feet high and weighs (estimat-
