VETERANS AT
UNION CHURCH
G. A. R. Members Hear Ser
mon by the Rev. DR.. W.
F. COrkTan

Memorial Day sermons we're preached
In number Of churches yesterday.
Members OF the G. A. r. posts attended
Union M e. Uhurch yesterday morning
and heard an interesting address by the
Rev. DR.. w. +. Corkran. The veterans
met at Irish-American Hall and were
escorted 70 the church by the Sons or
Veterans. DR.. Corkran's theme was the
removal OF the Israleites from Egypt He
said in part:
'The Memorial Day OF the text is the
day that the Jewish people were required
TO keep IN memory Of their deliverance
from Egypt bondage.
"Our Memorial Day is designed not
only to keep alive our memory Of the
heroic deeds and sacrifices OF the SOL
dier OF the Civil War, but also 10 re-
emphasize the benehcent results OF that
Ganguinary struggle. Israel was the
chosen OF God as the medium through
which the world was to be blessed In
the gift Of Christ and His kingdom OF
righteous, peace and joy. and the United
States Of America IS the choice OF God
as the medium through which national
individual civil and righteous liberty is
to be realized and given to all the peo-
pies Of the world
This could not have been done had
the South been victorious in the Civil
War
1.-THE cause Of the Civil War was not
slavery-that was a mere incident which
served TO irritate the differences between
North and south-but the real cause was
a difference of opinion as to the right
place Of supreme sovereignty whether
II belonged to the state OF to the national
government.
'To settle this issue the war was
fought. The triumph Of the South would
have meant the dominance of social aris-
tocracy. the enthronement OF slavery
an institution contrary to the funda.
mental doctrines of christianity. the al.
vision Of the country into two nations
with which TO begin and possibly a scors
or more to follow ana with all the evil.
and weaknesses incident thereto Dis
intergration would have been the begin.
ming and death the ending Of such a tri
umph. The amity, strength and infu
ence of our nation as It Is could never
have entered the dreams of the mos
fantastic Imagination.
"The courage sacrifice and death o
our soldiers saved US from these dirt
consequence and made possible the
peace, prosperity, power and glory which
is ours as n nation today.
"The war cost hundreds Of thousand
of lives and millions OF treasure. bu
whilst the sowing IS a sowing in tears
II Is a reaping IN JOY a hundred fold
1.-THE Grand Army Of the Republic,
as it was and as It is deserves ou
highest emulations, and as we bedecl
