he stood up in the prayer meeting
to bid goodbye to his weeping
congregation.

Presents Unique GaVeI.

Gen. F. A. Bird of Madison, quarter
master general of the Wisconsin de-
partment, G. A R., at Green Bay, pre-
scented to the department unique
gavel sent him for that purpose by
Gen. James H. Agen of Houston, Tex,
past department commander of the
Wisconsin department. General Agen
formerly resided at Superior.
The gavel is made from pieces of
wood that have historical significance.
The head is made from limb of a
blackberry tree on the battlefield of
San Jacinto, where Santa Anna was
captured by General Houston in 1886;
the handle from a section of joist
taken from Libby prison.
Other portions of the gavel come
from an oak rafter in the building
built by William Henry Harrison at
Vincennes, Ind, in 1906, while he was
governor of Indiana, Wisconsin and
Illinois; from the old mahogany doors
of the national capitol, taken down
when the bronze doors were hung;
from a red cedar joist in the United
States mint at New Orleans built in
1885, and from a walnut bed that Went
through the Galveston flood in 1900.
