Memorial Day,

The annual decoration of the
graves Of the Confederate soldiers
who fell in battle and were hurried
in the Port Gibson cemeteries took
place last Friday afternoon. A
heavy shower of rain fell just be-
fore the hour set for marching to
the cemetery, and the exercises had
to be held in the opera house. So
disconnected was everything by the
rain that many people did not learn
where the exercises were being held
until they had been concluded.
The graves had been decorated
in the morning, and everything was
in readiness for the solemn service.
Judge w. c. Martin, the orator
of the day, delivered very appro-
pirate and pleasing address. He
INDUCED in nothing extravagant or
unbecoming the occasion, and his
hearers regretted that his talk was
not longer.
Rev. H. R. Singleton was the
chaplain of the day, offering up an
earnest r,raver in behaif of the S1fr-
viving veterans.
At the close of the exercises, the
veterans repaired to the Port Glib
son Bank and Mr.. H. ]. Ewing
made photograph of the group.
Until this year it was the custom
of the local camp to hold memorial
services on the Ist of May, the an
niversary of the battle of Port Glib
son, but, at the reunion in New
Orleans last year, all camps were
requested to observe June 3rd, jeff.
Davis birthday, as general mem-
orial day, and in accordance with
this the local camp made the
change.
The plan of annually decorating
the graves Of the departed heroes
originated in Port Gibson in the
spring of 90, when the ladies re-
solved to pay this tribute to those
who had given up their lives in the
unequal struggle. After this, 9th
er sections of the south took up the
idea, and now the graves OF every
Confederate soldier who fell upon
the battlefield is strewn with flow
ers once each year.
