ern Confederacy."
Maj. John w. Tench of Gainesville
Fla, himself gallant old Confederate
soldier, and probably one of the bes
posted ex-confederates living on matters
of war history has been selling the book
in Palatka this week. He has sold out
all he brought with him, but will come
again. He says:
"Would you like to learn the greatness
of the men of Dixie and their leader,
the hero OF the heroes of the world;
Would you like 10 be with him and

And he would die for thee.

To feel his presence near
His eyes still looking into mine

May the years kiss gently your aging
cheek
And leave you friends galore,
May your happiness never have TO seek
May it fly in your open door.
So here's sigh for the days that were
Three cheers for the days to be,
Here's smile and clasp of friendship
true,
For the captain that dwells by the sea.
