or the preservation of Independence
Valiant Cubans striving to throw
off the yoke of the tyrsnt Spainj
or heroic Greece defying the
great powers of Europe in an
effort to maintain itself among
the nations of the world, must arouse
the deepest sympathy of every man
who has ever felt the glow Of patriot
ism in his own breast: No; 1t Is not
in vain that men give honor to the
deeds of heroes, and that they gather
the relics which speak more elo-
quently than words of the courage
and constancy of their fathers, or
build monuments that will point flu
ture generations to the valor and vir-
tue of a noble ancestry.
In this presence it is unnecessary
to eulogize the patience through prl-
vation that marked the Confederate
soldier as he plodded along the weary
years, helping to re-establ1sh the
prosperity of the land that gave him
birth and to rehabilitate the govern
ment of his fathers. The highest en-
comium that he can receive is the
abundant testimony of those who
were once his enemies, for in all the
land there is not heard the faintest
whisper that the ex-Confederates are
unmindful of their obligations as
citizens of a common country. The
false charge of disloyalty has van
ished into thin air, and the ground
less calumny that he was not fit to be
trusted has been blotted out by the
splendid representatives furnished by
the South for service at home and
| abroad
