ADDRESS DELIVERED BY MISS
BESSIE McCASKILL ON
DECORATION DAY.

When look into the faces of the
veteran warriors of that incompatible
army that fought with such magnifi-
cent valor and constancy, for four long
years under those battered battle flags,
now furled forever, I am overwhe]m-
ed by the dignity and difficulty of the
task assigned me.
There is such q vast disproportion
between the powers which the occas-
ion demands and those which possess,
that should not dare to essay the
task, but for my confidence In your
generosity and forbearance to one who
can at least say, / am the daughter
Of confederate veteran, and I, too,
love the lost cause and those who
marched and fought under the banner
Of the southern cross.
We are assembled here today to pay
our reverend homage to conquered
banner, to honor the men of '61, and
to scatter the sweetest flowers our
nature endowed, God -bedecked south
land affords, upon the graves of our
dead.
Veterans, we offer you our tribute
of respect and veneration today. You
are the men whom, above all others,
the south delights to honor, and we
are not alone-the north-the world
no longer denies the sincerity Of your
belief in the sacredness of your cause
They begin, at last, to recognize the
purity of your motives as they have
always recognized the splendor of your
valor. The world confesses the
honesty of your purpose and the glory
of your gallant struggle against supe-
rior numbers and resources.
Yes, these men were heroes if ever
heroes were. What hardships did
they not uncomplainingly endure ?
What sacrifices did they not cheerfully
make? What dangers did they not
face with uuqusiling front? They
were soldiers of duty. They have
never been surpassed in yalor. prowess,
skill, heroic constancy and sublime
devotion to duty. The muse Of history
will write the names of these brave
men and their brave leaders as high on
her. great roll of honor as those of any
men in any era.
| When the ablest military critic OF
the British army says: 'Lee and
Stonewall Jackson should be placed IN
the same group with Washington,
Wellington and Marlborough as the
five greatest generals of the English
speaking race;;'' when Roosevelt
says: 1.-THE world has never seen
better leaders than those who follow
ed Lee, and Lee will undoubtedly
rank, without any exception, as the
greatest Of al. great captains when
these and others recognize the valo1
and virtue Of our illustriou leaders,
how much more should we, the daugh-
ters and sons of such men, enshrine
the memory Of their deeds in the sacred
ark Of our love and honor and cher
ish it, as priceless heirloom for ever
more.
Those who survived the glorious
struggle have pointed upward to the
star Of duty and have followed it al
bravely in peace as they followed it
in war. It has been their consecrateo
task. by the help Of God, to rebuild
our southland. Yes, You have faced
poverty and the bitter years Of the re-
construction as bravely as you faced
the boys in blue. Your duty's nobly
done, and for all this we honor you.
Alas your ranks are thinned. One
by one our southern heroes have

a TRIBUTE.

Entered into rest eternal from the
home of his parents and grand-par
! ents, in the nineteenth month uf his
! age Stillwell Russell Bee on Friday
evening. June %, 1905.
Once more the Angel of Death has
/ visited one of our households and TAX
en- away its dearest treasure. After a
painful Illness of about ten days lit
| tie Russell Bee has been called 10 the
| great beyond" He was remark
able child. and his daily life was
passed in an atmosphere of love-lOye
rs deep and as truc as human heart
could yield And as he received SO
he gave in return q love unstinted
free, beautiful. His sickness was a
'evelation OF childish fortitude and
self-control; for he suffered more like
man than a child. And in his great.
est spasms Of pain-for he suffered
intensely at times-he seemed TO be
aware OF the aching hearts of those
he loved so dearly and who would 50
cheerfully have borne his pain for
aim. and appeared to try to comfort
them with his little childish words Of
-ndearment and his loving caresses.
The influence and the power OF his
little life will be felt beyond the con-
fines of his own home circle, as was
WINGED by the great crowd of people
who came not only to attest their
sympathy with his family, but also to
pay their tribute of love and respect
10 his memory.
On Sunday evening IN the room
his little feet had so often trOd and
whose walls had so often res )unded
to the music Of his childish voice,
surrounded by his friends, young and
old, he lay in state among the beauti.
ful flowers ho loved so well-pure and
beautiful. Then after all had been
said and done that human hearts and
hands could devise and do In the way
OF consolation TO those who loved him
children bore him to his resting place
on Rose Hill, and surrounded by them
and among the flowers he loved he
/ was laid TO rest where earth nor ele
ment can touch him, TO wait the last
great summons.
To those dearest 20 him we would
say, look up and remember how ho
would have had you to assuage your
bitter grief And let his memory
Continue in your hearts TO be a beau.
'iful flower growing there and dif.
fusing its fragrance all around you
/ Some day. the same call 'yll come ia
You that has come TO him. Strive 50
TO live that when You near the BET
| ter Land you may be sure that little
Russell will be the first Of those
Heavenly Spirits 10 meet YOU and as
ioyously and as brightly as he ever
did when with YOU here upon earth.
