brain and heart of our former Adiutant

| Miss Harrie Crockett gave us solo
The Southern Girl. " Her rendering
of this solo was pronounced beautiful. .
The ten-minute speeches by the vet
Grams were feature of the occasion.
Special mention should be made of
the speech of John Cavenaugh, who is
denominated the Walking Encyclope-
dia of Confederate History" This son
of Erin, though now blind, wears a
merry smile. His classic words were as
full of beautiful sentiment as the flow
ers that grow on the little isles of Lake
Killarney, in the good old County
Glare. His heart is as brave as Jack
sons and he is as patriotic as Patrick
Henry
