probably never existed so strongly in
lany army as among the men that com
posed the Volunteer Army of America.

bile, Alabama, who los5 his life while
building a breastwork to protect has
/ own men from the shots of the enemy.
"When we were starving in our
camp at Yockney, the gallant Lindsey
hunted among the regiments until he
found two boxes of hard tack, when
he and Thayer each took box on their
shoulder ard brought to their hungry
men-noble men! No pen Of mine can
do justice to our fallen comrades.
I" Memory in its darkest hours,
Loves to trace each bygone scene!
Thus if joys are feeting flowers,
Hope is till an evergreen
"But we parted, we buried them in
the lonely graves beside the swamp,
beneath the evergreen Holly tree.
On the hills, on the plains we left
their bones to bleach and decay But
their memory is not forgotten-their
names are emblazoned on the nation s
shed in vain. They parted with this
life, but they infused new life into
the nation for which they died.
"Friends and comrades-the day
will yet come IN new life Eternal!
Where we shall enjoy a richer bless
ing of the peace for which they en-
dured. They placed their all on the
altar Of Liberty and won the everlast-
ing gratitude of nation free from
bondage and oppression"
