AN APPEAL TO THE
 PEOPLE or ALABAMA.

 Va, there are beautiful lots for each Southern State. Here number of their dead soldiers lie buried. The number ranges from about fifty to three or four hundred in each State lot Alabama has seventy-one. About the center of each lot stands a beautiful monument, and each grave is suitably marked with mar ble head and foot stones, except Alabama. This State has no monument and no marble head stones except to three graves. Imagine our modification re- gently when my wife and were walking through this cemetery, feeling like taking of our shoes because we were walking 1 where the dust of as noble, loyal dead lay as ever drew sword, when we discovered that Alabama dead had no monument and no marble head stones, but decay1ne wooden head boards only. We could nor express our feelings at this sight, but we said our old State did not know this work and honor were not done. At once l offered my services to the Daughters or the Confederacy of Winchester. Va, who have this work in charge. that l might help raise the money needed. l am we'll acquainted in Alabama, being native of that State, and having spent my life there, except the past five years, thought I might render some help. Ine monument and head stones VIII cost e'VV' I q known, with their companies and regi- ments.
