BATESBURG MEMORIAL DAY BEAU-
TIFUL and IMPRESSIVE
CITY WAS CROWDED. FITTING
SERVICES WERE HELD In
MEMORY Of THE CGNFED-
ERATE VETERANS

$A ~ bhnNo
Tuesday was red letter day for
Batesburg and vicinity, the occasion
being Memorial day and the reunion
of the old confederate veterans of
Camp James Connor.
The sun never shonc brighter and
the birds never sang sweeter and it
looked like al nature gave zest 10
the occasion.
CROWDS IN CITY
Early in the morning the clans be-
gan TO gather and by 10 o'clock the
town seemed one mass of moving
humanity. To Capt. u. x. Gunter,
commander of the camp, too much
praise cannot be given for the sue
cessful manner in which the program
was carried out.
Promptly at 10 o'clock the chill.
dren of the graded sceool formed a
line in front of the Citizens Bank,
and from there they marched to the
cemetery. where they decorated the
graves of those who wore the Grey.
For cause they knew to be right.
In that beautiful city Of the dead lie
the remains of many who fought on
the bloody battlefields of Virginia
and Tennessee. After the garlands
were laid upon the graves the large
crowd assembled in the opera house
where the exercises proper were held
CITY WELCOMED VETERANS.
The meeting was called to order
by Capt u. x, Gunter and prayer
was offered by Rev. Joab Edwards,
of Leesville. In a few graceful re-
marks the Hon. w. c. Bates mayor
welcomed the veterans in behalf of
the town.
Mrs. Fred L. Cullum, one of the
most talented ladies Of the town in
behalf Of the u. ID. &. welcomed
the old veterans in most graceful
manner Gnis address was patriotic
10 rac acme o. perfection and called
forth long prolonged applause A:
her sweet womanly voice rang
out 1t could be heard by every on,
in the vast audience.
Miss Mamie Gunter, the accom-
plished blind daughter of Capt. u
Gunter, sang for the benefit of tn
audience, the "Sewanee River" S.
beautiful did she sing it she shoulc
be named the Nightingale of Bates
burg.
On behalf of the Sons OF Verans
Capt. VIM M. Garter delivered al
address of welcome. The address
was filled with patriotism. Thi
young mans ancestors were among
the patriots who have caused th'
pages Of South Carolina history tt

the mantel has fallen on worth
