THE FLAG

Unfurl our beauteous banner,
And fling it to the breeze,
The flag, all nations honor,
On land or on the seas.
1t led the hosts triumphant,
To victory at last.
And, sacred to the memory,
Are our heroes of the past.
At Shiloh, and at Gettysburg.
Twas foremost in the fray,
Inspired the valiant soldier,
Whom death alone could stay,
For freedom, home and country,
He consecrated life,
The fag,-his inspiration,
While joining in the strife.
Upon our nations records,
Amid the honored names,
Is that of Major Watson,
A name, our homage claims.
But now his life-work finished,
He sleeps,-as sleep the brave.
And, like a guardian ever,
The flag, floats DER his grave.
When Lies last day is closing,
And the shadows growing long,
May it be ours to listen
To that old, and we'll known sor
The old Star Spangled banner,
And may our last gaze dwell,
Upon that starry banner,
The flag, we love so we'll.
