GRENADA HONORS THE
CONFEDERATE VETERANS
Barlsdale Camp Brings rany Together in Reun-
ion-Dr. w. T. Boiling, of Memphis, flakes
Interesting Address-A Splendid Dinner
Served on College Campus.

Wednesday, August Is. was day
devoted by Grenada to hOnoriDg the
Confederate soldiers and the cause fol
which they left their homes, friends,
and loved ones to contend on the bat
tlefeld with those whom they believed
to be trampling upon their rights and
inherent privileges. The day brought
many of the old heroes together. They
rekindled their camp fires, again made
ready the cannon, and stepped with
the elasticity of youth to the beat OF
the drum. They again visited Bull
Run, they fingered with Lee in the
Wilderness, travelled with Johnston in
his Fabian marches through Georgia,
and pursued with Forrest and Stuart.
The sound of the bugle call to march
was resonant in their ears and they
evidenced the fact that they had no
apologies to make for what they did.
According to prearransed pro-
gram, the veterans and many other
spectators assembled in the courthouse
at IL O'Clock where an address was
made by DR.. w. T. Boiling, pastor of
the Central Methodist church in Men,
phis. DIR. Young called the meeting
to order and Rev. T. G. Freeman Of
fered prayer after which Judge Roane
introduced the orator of the day.
DR.. Bolling's address was unique in
many respects and almost every sem
tence he uttered found a welcome
response in the hearts and minds of
his auditors. He said the effective
ness of the Confederate soldier was
because he thought he was backed by
every principle of right and because Of
the further fact that no matter what
the emergency of conditions. he had the
common sense and the quickness of
perception to realize what should be
dOne-and that quickly. They had no
hirelings-every man who wore the
gray, he said, gave himself up to the

LETTER FROM "FORKER. |,
Picnic At Center Point and Other Items
Of Interest.

1
Editor Sentinel-Did you ever hear
OF Center Point? No, / guess not, for
it is new place just established, not
yet put down in geography, or record
ed in history; but it is a nice little
school house, nesting among the hills,
where the young ideas are taught to
shoot; and / dare say, nations will
yet speak with pride, as the great men
and women that will 60 forth from
her walls and claim Center Point as
their Alma Mater; but / am dieress-
ing. A few days ago, we received an
invitation to attend picnic at Center
Point; nothing could have afforded
us more pleasure, as we had long de-
sired to visit that envied spot. AS the
distance was great, the roads rough
and rugged, We arose early on the ap-
poihted day. gathering a wagon full of
young folks, thus proceeding happily
on our journey. Soon as we were, a
great many had preceded us. There
were visitors from distance: Miss
Minnie Caldwell, a charming young
lady from Oxford, MssS.; Miss Maggie
Martin from HOlcomb; Misses Dolly
hite and Pates from near Coffeeville;
Miss Fannie Fenner from near GrayS-
port, beside all the surrounding
neighbOrhOod.
The morning was quickly passed in
merry conversation and music. The
young people singing and playing on
the organ. Soon, almost too soon,
dinner was announced, and oh, such a
dinner as met our gaze. 1t was
spread beneath the branches Of the
wide spreading oak, and was loaded
with the most delightful viandS Of the
day. Cakes, pies, cuStards, salads,
fried chicken. and last, but not least,
was the barbecued meats, SO nice and
tender, couldn't be excelled, sufficient
to tempt the appetite Of king. Ev-
erything was so nice, and reflected
great credit on the managers of the
picnic, and it will ever be remember
ed as one of the bright spots in the
{ aSiS of memory. After dinner We
had more music ON the organ and
graphophone causing the moments to
pass only too rapidly. About the
middle of the evening, Mr.. John Gill
lon and Wallace Mccormick announced
treat OF free watermelOnS; it was a
treat indeed, the incest / ever saw,
every one seemed to enjoy them, had
enough and To- spare. Well, every
sweet bas its bitter: every day must
end, as we, began to bid farewell to
our dear trends, invoking Gods bless
ings upon Center Point. and that
we may all live to meet there another
year. Mrs. Phillips and Mrs. Alice
Penn were also visitors from Grenada,
