The President of the United States was
there. to make by his presence and words

errors of States, North and South, East
and West; officials md dignitaries, with
Representatives of foreign Governments;
more than $4,000 soldiers. including Reg
ular troops and citizen soldiery; veterans
of the civil war from both the Union and
Confederate armies; while on the Hudson
River. in sight from the tomb, were war
vessels of our American navy. and others
of England. France. Spain, and Italy.
1t was like the funeral ceremony re-
peateG, with the added impressiveness of
the universal conviction that the passage
of years only brought out mere and more
distinctly the greatness of Gen. Grant as
soldier and a man. and the depth and
permanency of the Nations gratitude to
him. Again it was my privilege to bear
a part in the closing tribute of the days
ceremonies, by being one of a detail of the
Grand Army Post of which Gen. Grant
was a member. to lay a wreath with these
loving words at the door of his tomb, and
to utter words of prayer for Gods blessing
on the lessons OF MS lie 10 tnOSe VINO nave
survived him.
with the placing Of this memorial
tribute, comrades, our service for Gen.
Grant is at an end; but his service for US
and for our country still goes on. While
this granite structure stands, and 80 long
as our country endures, his life story will
be lesson and an inspiration to the citi-
zens of the great Republic which he saved
and served. 1t is enough for us that we
were of the mighty host by which he was
enabled to do his work, and that we may
strive and hope to be of that multitude
which no man can number, who shall
gather finally in the presence of the Cap
tain of his Salvation, whom he served and
trusted. and whom we may trust and serve
forever"
1t is a high privilege to have been in
touch, in any way, with the personality
and career of such a man as Gen. Grant
1t ought to prove high inspiration.
