many lands. AS Pres. Lincoln said of
the men and women of the War time,
you cannot escape history" Let us
try to write the story of the first Gen.
fury of Richmond in the hope that it
will prove a source not only of infor-
nation but also Of inspiration and
higher endeavor to the men and
women who shall walk her streets
and have in their keeping her good
name and fortunes during the COM
ing century. ....-
