THE BivoUAc WITHDRAWALS.

My COmrades-It is with feelings
of the deepest regret that notice the
fact OF the recent disagreement
among the old comrades In our biv-
ouac, breaking asunder the strongest
ties of friendship that the world has
ever known. A friendship lasting for
half a century and cemented together
by the blood of fallen comrades on a
hundred battlefields and by fellow
ship in sufferings, privations and he
roic deeds of Confederate soldiers,
such as no army in the world ever
before witnessed.
The solemn obligations of Ancient
Free Masonry should not be more sa-
cred or binding than the obligations
of Confederate veterans to the few
remaining comrades yet living, but
SO fast passing away. We are assur-
ed by the sacred words of Holy Writ,
that the first and greatest cammand-
ment given by the Creator to man is
to Love God,' and the second is like
unto it Love thy neighbor as thy
self" There are no stronger ties on
earth to answer the question who Is
thy neighbor" than the duty of the
few remaining Confederate veterans
to love each other 1t is a solemn
thought that our lease of time has al
most ended and eternity is very near
to us; then let us take heed to our
lives. am glad that the all wise
ruling of a Merciful Creator did not
make me responsible for my brothers
acts This is a free country and ev-
cry man has a right to be guided by
the dictates of his own conscience.
Every man has the right to worship
God as he believes is the proper way,
and he has equal right to his conscien-
tious political opinions and no one
can question them. | am not my
brothers keeper. In our association
here as old comrades, we are bound
together in the sacred bonds of fell
lowship, formed by mutual suffer
ings, perils and hardshipe and weld
ed solid in the fires of battle, but the
conscience of no comrade is controll-
ed by no other individual comrade,
nor by all, in the capacity of an organ
lied bivouac of band Of brothers.
Then let us fully recognize this fact,
and go on in our work of charity,
friendship and love, for the few re-
naming days that God may spare our
lives to comfort and cheer each 9TH
err here on earth, and live SO that we
may join the comrades waiting for us
on the other shore when our time on
earth is ended

"A COMPARISON.
Fourth of July Accidents in This and
Other Years.


Editor Enterprise: Ihasmuch as
there are yet a few people in the
country who advocate a return to a
noisy, powder burning celebration of
the Fourth of July, instead of the
sane. quiet celebration, it seems wise
to give few statistics regarding this
and previous years.
The first statistics of Fourth of
July accidents and deaths were gath
cred nine years ago, when the cell
ebration was wholly unrestricted.
deaths from tetanus. Tetanus in ev-
cry day language is lockjaw. These
AIS cases of lockjaw were nearly all
children.
This year the number of cases was
10. the average age of those in whom
| it occurred being ID years. This
means there were 3o7 less cases of
lockjaw among our children than
there would have been with the for
| mer insane method of celebrating;
3o7 children saved from horrible
death. Nor is this all of the story.
These Is cases occurred in cities and
towns that as yet have no prohibitive
| ordinance regarding fireworks, or
only. restrictive. With proper pro-
hibition these IS would have been
spared.
Nor is this all the story. Besides
deaths from lockjaw due to fireworks,
there were, this year AZ deaths due to
| fireworks directly, no lockjaw occur
ring. Eleven little girls were burn
ed to death on this fourth, by their
| dresses catching from frecrackers.
Several people were killed by care
less handling. of pistols and guns
while celebrating. Others by cannon
| firecrackers.
Nine years ago there were 466
| deaths due to other causes than lock-
| jaw, but directly due to Fourth of
| July celebration. Altogether, lock-
jaw and other causes, there were nine
years ago 3SI deaths, almost wholly
children, directly due to the use OF
fireworks. This year there were 6s.
| yield to none in the claim of pat
| riotism, but to me the sacrifice of S8I
children on the altar of patriotism, or
even the o5 of this year, is horrible
and inhuman, little less than the for
| iner sacrihce by certain heathens,
who built an altar of wood, laid their
| children on it and deliberately cut
the throat.
One more statement of statistics.
During the past nine years 3o,I2o
| people, almost all children, have
been killed and injured in the U. S.
by Fourth of July celebrations, by
fireworks. 1t would be terrible bat
tie that gave SO many killed and
wounded. And these are children.
In place of the horrible din and
cruel butchery of former years, let
us celebrate our natal day with pic
mes, speeches, historic pageants and
other truly patriotic methods. Let
us have sane Fourth.

MRS. BETTE DISHON

In remembrance of our friend,
Mrs. Bette Dishon, who died Octo-
her 18th, 1911.
Gone but not forgotten. She was
Il good, kind neighbor; a true wife
and mother. A place is vacant that
no other one can fill. Weep not
loved ones as they that have no
hope, for so often we heard her say
al am going home where there Is no
pain or sickness, or death up there"
She has joined n happy band with
a crown on her head, n harp in her
hand. We all know she has left us /;
yes, fcrevermore. We all hope that
some sweet day we will meet her on
that bright and happy shore. Heav-

en- now has our treasure; earth the
caskct keeps, but we will mingle
roJnd the grave where our darling
Bette sleeps. Oh, it was so hard
to part from Bette. Loving hands
did all they could, but the angels
spoke from heaven and moved her
from her home. Though no more can
we be neighbors; no more her trou-
bles know, We can hope that some
sweet day We will meet you when we
have crossed that shining shore. Oh
how patiently she bore her suffer
ings. Eleven long weeks she laid and
moaned until the Lord knew best and
took her to her happy home. Call
not back our dear departed; weep
not loved ones, her storms are Ger,
but try and meet her when you
