0. yeur grandest deeds
 When other years had passed away and the storm of civil war burst in fury Over the land you returned Eau- leled crowned fron the bloody fiela of Nalasses and finm association with the immortal Robert F.. Lee and the Confederate soldiers of Arkansas We're proud 10 know that you were to lead them. We loved you then and affectiona'ely called you "Old Tigc, when you invariably responded with reciprocal aTection expressed in gen. trous language. It was heart to heart talk. You seemed to think in the heat of battle or on the long marci, that your soldiers were slow ill reach ing the firing line while they imagined that there was already q hot old time of it.
 Your army record, General Cabell i.s without stain or blemish, and the
 
 he ritage of your noble deeds durMa the ciivl war. in the various depart lnents of your activity, will fall to your children as the mantle of the prophet of old upon the shoulders of bis youthful successor, an emblem of honor and means for the perform ance of all that is good and great. You are now in the sunset of life, you have crossed the summit of the great divide and you are approaching the grave that is Opening to receive you. We, too, who now greet you are following close on your footsteps. "Morituri Salutamus.' About 10 die l ourselves, We salute thee" May, then, the Great Father who tempers the winds of heaven to the frailties of humanity deal kindly with your feeble body and receive your reconci1ed soul into his own bosom, there to remain | forever and ever.
 Please accept this medal and ad dress from the Confederate Veterans ] of Arkansas.
