Daughters Of Alabama Division:
wish that all OF the Alabama Di-
vision could have been the guests OF
Auburn, and present at the dedication
of the splendid memorial. tablet which
was unveiled In Eangdon' Hall. OF the
Polytechnic Institute Tuesday morn
ing. June /. I know that they would
have been especially pleased to hear
the presentation speech, Of DIR. Howard
M. Hail, who conceived this beautiful
idea of a memorial tablet in bronze.
cornmemorating the deeds Of the Au-
burn men who fought under the Stars
ana Bars Of the dear old ConfederAcy.
President Thach paid q glowing trib-
ute to cur organization, and with DR..
HamiI made request that I, as Presi-
dent of the Alabama Division, u. D. c..
arrange the drapery and then pull the
cord, revealing to a magnificent audi
snce this sacred memorial. AS the
orchestra played Aud Lang Syne," the
folds OF the silken Confederate nag
were drawn back, and the audience
arose reverently. The splendid ban
ner, used as drapery, was the one pre-
scented a year ago to the Alabama Di-
vision by the Pelham Chapter OF Biz
mingham; IL can never be used for a
more sacred purpose. and I feel that
that its President was asked, officially,
TO have a part in this long to -be-re-
membered and beautiful ceremony.
In his speech DR. Hamil quoted APP
propriately the following beautiful
words, carven upon one of South Car
olina's monuments: ITO the memory
Of those who. in giving up their love
or learning, and their ambition for
lives OF honor and usefulness gave
more than life itself. Who g1orified a
fallen cause by the simple manhood
of their lives, the patient endurance
Of suffering and the heroism OF death,
and who In the dark hours of impris-
the hopelessness Of the hos
pita1. in the sharp agony OF the field,
found support and consolation in the
belief that at home they would not
be forgotten"
President Thach responded, on be-
half Of the college authorities and ac-
