Those who had marched in other years
marched no more AS time passed the
ranks had been closed again and again.
Not soldier in the line but could re-

the comrade who had gone with him
through the war and who had united
in the beautiful services of Memorial

The thought must have come that
some who marched yesterday would
must have come that some who yes
terday paid the tender tribute of loves
remembrance to a dead comrade would
next year call mutely for the same
tribute from the comrades who sur
vived.
To these surviving veterans yester-

of other years there have been more
veterans than in that of yesterday. In
other years the veterans marched to
