Resolutions OF Respect.

At the annual meeting of Ridsely Brown
Camp. 51S, u. C. ". held in Rockville on
the Srd instant committee was appointed
to draft a memorial to Comrades Lieut.
Colonel G. W, Dorsey. Captain Thomas
Griffith and Richard P. Hays. The COM
mittee reported the following, which was
unanimously adopted:
Since we last met taps have sounded
and the lights of this world have gone out
Tor three of our comrades. Lieutenant
Colonel Gustavas W. Dorsey, of the First
Maryland Cavalry, has sheathed his sword
and gone to rest within the shadows of his
tent, Among all the heroes of the Armies
OF the South, no more gallant warrior than
he ever led his men to victory. Gentle,
brave. considerable. modest, he was alike
the intrepid soldier. the chivalric GENTLE
man and the noble man.
Captain Thomas Griffith Company A,
First Maryland Cavalry, has followed his
Chief from the battle field has Crossed
the River" and now rests Under the Shade
of the Trees" Courteous, lovable, unafraid
and true, he was leader to be trusted, a
comrade to be relied on and friend to be
loved.
Richard p Hays, private Company B,
35th Virginia Battalion. served his coun-
try and his ideals of civic righteousness
under Lieutenant Colonel E. v. White in
Captain George W. Chiswell's old company.
What memories these names recall Of DASH
ing exploits. of valiant deeds, of heroic
struggles. Generous. impulslve. honorable,
kind, our comrade was a worthy fellow of
that band already growing shadowy to our
vision behind the gathering mists of time.
AS long as the Long Roll was sounded,
and the battle flags were unfurled these
comrades of ours were ever found where
danger was. The smoke of the conflict,
the flash of the sabre and the noise of the
battle seemed their proper place and the
fit setting for their soldier virtues. But
when the dove Of peace lowered over the
array and with the gentle flutterings of her
white wings drove back the sulphurous
clouds of strife, these brave soldiers be-
came the still Drawer citizens bearing de-
feat with fOrtitude and the duties of peace
full labor with dignity and honor. As they
had been brave soldiers. so they became
good citizens. AS they had been valiant
warriors so they became peaceful toilers.
As they had won honor with the sword,
so they won success and esteem with the
peaceful weapons of their daily quiet lives.
AS they sheathed their swords with glory,
so they have laid aside their lives without
discredit. In war and in peace they were
good comrades, trusted friends and honor
able gentlemen.
We shall miss them here, but their names
are written upon the roll of those who have
achieved honor and success in war and in
peace. Now they have gone to their rest,
and only our tears can testify our MOURN
ing, and only our loving thoughts can fol-
low them.

Dearest brother, how we miss you.
Since from earth you passed away;
And our hearts are aching s0rely
As we think Of you each day.
Oh may meet my dear brother
On that bright celestial shore,
There we will walk and talk together.
Where we will meet to part no more.
Many weary path he Travelled.
In the darkest storm Of life.
Bearing many heavy burden.
Which for others he left In life.
What grief and pain he suffered here
None Of us will ever know,
For Jesus took him home with Him.
Where no tears will ever flow.
Sleep, dear brother, and take your rest.
God took you home, He thought II best,
II was hard indeed TO part from thee.
But Gods strong arm supported me.
Brother thou art gone before us;
God would not permit you stay.
When the form Of death comes DER me
Meet me. brother. on the way.

Bread Tickets At Reisinger's.

When we inaugurated the sale of bread
tickets, our reasons were twofOld. Our
main object was to reduce to minimum
the amount Of bookkeeping errors and
disputes. especially those on the bread
route. which were a source Of constant
irritation to both sides. for at the reduced
price at which we sold them we reckoned
that practically everyone would be glad
to buy them. Owing TO the price at which
we sold them. we intended them to be
sold strictly for cash. Heretofore we have
given % tickets for 81. In the future we
will give 81 tickets for ST. Those paying
cash will receive extra tickets for each
IS worth Of checks they hand in. See our
adv. How to Cut the Cost Of Living"
