SPEECH OF MAJOR JOHN C, HARRIS
 AT THE MEMORIAL DAY EXERCISES

The orator for Memorial, Day was Major John G. Harris of Montgomery who spoke as follows:
 Ladies. Comrades and Fellow-coun- trymen:-
 Each recurring 26th of April, cultured and noble women, chivalrous and patri- otic men. sweet and innocent children, gather about the graves of our Confed- crate dead to pay loving tribute to their memory. It is beautiful and pathetic custom, born in the devotion of our loyal women, to those who died for the cause they loved. This day keeps fresh the heroism of those who sacri- feed their lives on the altar of their beautiful Southland. They died. defend ing that which they believed to be constitutional right.
 l"This custom is hoary with years. IL dates back to the ages when learned Athens wove wreaths of flowers and entwined them about the monuments of those who had fallen in battle.

 Around the tomb where sophocles is
 laid.
 Sweet ivy, wind thy boughs and en-
 tertwine
 With blushing roses and the cluster
 ing vine;
 So shall thy listing leaves with
 beauty hung
 Prove fit emblem for the lays he
 sung.
 Such a custom is full of eloquent appeals to the heart of sorrowing sur vlvors and lifts our thoughts to sub lime appreciation of the cause that in- spired Southern patriotism.
 The bridal and the huriaI have alike sought their richest emblems among the fairest symbols of beauty and de- cay. History, poetry, and eloquence have each vied in celebrating those ex- hibitions of courage which reflected so much honor to the republic of anti quity. Rome. nation which surpassed her contemporaries in love of arts and arms. erected statues. and garlanded triumphal arches In honor of her heroic dead. Our Southern soldiers were as brave as the noblest Roman; our South ern poets sang as sweetly; and our Southern orators challenged the best and the greatest of any nation, or coun- try. We have cause to be proud of our land and people. It is meet and proper that sweet and beautiful flowers. ex- pressions of Gods thoughts. should be tcnderly laid. by delicate hands. on the resting places of our loyal dead.
 The HeraIdry of the Brave.
 Here sleeps heroic dust: These decked graves, awake memories of the past. and the heraldry of the brave comes crowding in upon us. as we stand with uncovered heads.
