gle to walk as staunchly and as
straight as they had done thirty years
before. Two mere shells Of men
with all the fires of life Pickering in
to ash, were wheeled along in chairs
at the end of the column.
They drew up In hollow square
about the open grave and every tas-
selled hat came off as four of the
younger men lifted the coffin out Of
the hearse. Off at one side and
crowding between the grass covered
mounds near the cemetery fence were
some hundreds of townspeople rev.
erenty watching the ceremony. In
more than one place in the square the
old fellows, sometimes in chain OF
three or four, held hands like little
frightened children might do In the
presence of some indefinite dread. The
chaplain read a few words about the
dead mans career IS a soldier and

the side of the coffin, laid across il

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust AT
the preachers words half a dozen OF
the close friends Of the dead man
pressed out of the ranks. and kneel-
ing. threw in handfuls of earth. The
commander of the gun squad, a vet
eran with long gray beard, took his
cue from the uplifted hand of the
governor and began to give the COM
pany of half a dozen the necessary
orders in tone as penetrating and
brusuue as If he were directing an
operation on the field of battle with
every little headstone stretched out
in front of him an ambushed enemy.
They fired three sharp. uniform vol
leys over the grave, the hollow square
of time-battered soldiers coming to
salute and standing motionless. In

smoke that hung low on the grass

instrument to his lips with a gallant
sweep of the arm the moon topped
the pines at his back and swathed
him like a vision, in flood of light.
Why is it that the most solemn ser
vice ever devised by man, the stately
hush of a vast cathedral, the impos-
sing robes, the stained glass windows,
the pealing organ, all fade into insigni-
ficance beside that soul-stirring, simple
act-the trumpeting out of taps over
the body of a dead soldier? No man
