cause, and in God. In 1861 they
had cheered the soldiers, and waved
their handkerchiefs, and rained bou-
DUETS; in 1862 they had sent brave
words of encouragement, and bade
their sons and brothers and husbands
to fight to the end; in 1868 they re-
peated that-sent the laggards back
to the ranks--and when they were
not sewing, or nursing the sick, were
praying. Oh, women of Virginia and
the great South to her farthest linn
it's, there is nothing in all, history
that surpasses your grand record.
You hoped, in the dark days as in
the bright; W al bearded men
shrank, you fronted the storm un-
moved. Always you hoped and en-
dured, and prayed for the land of
DIXIE. Had the rest done their
duty like the women and the army.
the red-cross flag would be floating
to-day In triumph. The army-that
was unshaken; Gettysburg had not
broken its strength nor affected it's
stout manhood. Lees old soldiers
believed in him after Gettysburg, in
y"e winter Of '63. They had conf
lence still in their great leader, and
IN their cause. The wide gaps in
heir ranks did not dismay them;
want Of food did not discourage
them; hunger, hardships, nakedness,
defeat-they had borne these in the
past, they We're bearing them still,
they were ready to bear them in the
future. War did not fright them,
though the coming conflict was
plainly going to be more bitter than
any before. The great array of Grant
on the north bank of the Rapidan
| did not depress them. Had they not
| met, and defeated at fredericksburg
and charlottesville force as great,
| and could not they do it again?' So
| they lay In their camps on the Rapi-
dan, in that cold winter Of 1864
little army of ragged and hungry
men, with gaunt faces, wasted forms,
| shoeless feet; with nothing to en-
courage them but the cause, past
victories, and Lees presence. That
was much what was enough, how
ever, was the blood in their veins;
the inspiration of the great race Of
fighting men from whom they de-
rived their origin. Does any one
laugh at that? The winner will,
but the truth remains. That ragged
and famished army came OF fight
ing race. 1t was starving and dying,
but 1t was going to fight to the last.
When the cannon began to roar in
May, 1864, these gaunt veterans
were In line, with ragged coats, but
| FURNISHED bayonets. When Lee. the
gray cavalier, rode along their lines
the woods Numbered with a cheer
| which said " READY!"

PRAIRIE WAITS AT
YARD FOR DAYLIGHT
Authorities Delay Ships Departure,
Fearing Repetition Of Pea Patch
Misfortune.
(By Associated Press.)

PHlLADEi. PHIA, PA. Dec. 10
The United states auxiliary cruiser
Prairie. which was scheduled 10 sail
this afternoon for Colon. is still lying
at the Philadelphia navy yard. with
the 700 marines and all munitions of
war on board. IL was announced to-
night that the Prairie will positively
sail tomorrow morning.
II is believed that the change Of
plans was due to q desire on the part
of the naval authorities TO prevent
possible recurrence of the
Pea Patch Island misfortune,
and for this reason they decided to
take the vessel through the Delaware
shoals in daylight instead Of at night.
The Prairie had steam up and was
ready fci sailing when orders were
received delaying the departure OF
the vessel until tomorrow.
