THE PEOPLES FORUM
rlemoriai Day in Oakland as Seen
There for the First Time by Visitor.

To the Editor of The Republican:
An unanticipated happening secured
this correspondent the pleasure of wit
Messing the observations, May Both.
1911, in conformity with the National
custom each year of respecting the
memory and identifying the graves of
soldiers, and long will ne retain some Of
the deep impressions created. The de-
sign is a worthy one and right thinking
citizens should guard the high object
from abuse by the thoughtless and
cause it to be transmitted unimpaired
to posteritY. 1t was a cause of no
surprise and the observance in Oak
land not only creditable to the best of
that community but such public trib-
ute as the occasion deserved. In fact
the town, with almost its entire popu-
lation on the street, wore the reVered
hush of Sabbath day, a respect that
was not only manifest in the assembling,
the procession, the programme in the
cemetery but in the public conduct dur
ing the balance of the day Surely this
is as it should be Flowers and good
will, warm fellowship and tender unison
lent q tinge of mellOWed cOlOring to the
many features of the day in Oakland
and her people should view with pride
bearing so cOmmendable. In the for
nation of the procession for the march
to the cemetery were melancholy
lessons taught b y time. Probably
less than twenty participants in the
Civil War were there to walk in that
column, and that few now too aged to
bear a musket or to step erect as in the
days OF war. 1t recalled this incident
Not long after the verdict pronounced
in arms at AppomattoX, Dr. Hunter
McGuir, no less distinguished for bril-
liant attainments as student than in
the field of his profession, on a quiet
Sunday afternoon strolled through the
wards of an army hospital in Richmond
where few of the most hopeless cases
from both armies had been left. On
one cot lay pt t ent from which human
ity would shrink. While emaciated to
skeleton, his rolling eyes were fixed to-
ward the ceiling. and deep fracture
over the forehead seemed to be grow
ing in such way as to press back the
brain. No one knew either of the in
jury or of the soldier; he was found
there and left by successive crews in
hospital management. The skilled
practitioner aware that death alone could
offer relief in the existing condition,
decided to call the next day competent
aid and remove the bone from the d.
rection in which it was growing. After
the knife and saw had served their func-
ton, the surgeon, anxious to catch the
first expression from mind so long in
darkness, was intently watching the
wear-away of what had been admins
tered before the use of the knife, when

To pat IN a 1J-horse gasoline engine

rigate a young orchard which had
been put out by the former owner.
This orchard consisted OF appIeu. cher.

His alfalfa made him six md "a

but he estimated that had he en-
