listen TO the fine address of Judge
Chas. y. Woods. in which he so clear
~ set forth the true position Of the
/ Confederate soldier. and it should be
printed and placed in the hands of
every boy and girl in our dear South
land. 1t was a beautiful sight To see
the respect and honor shown these
dead heroes, nearly fifty years after
they were laid to rest How different
the scene and times now and then.
Then | was a boy fourteen years old
and assisted my father David ].
Wlnn, when he laid to rest these
poor, mangicd and emaciated bodies.
They died here in Sumter, some from
wounds and some from disease far
from home, but among friends. Rev.
Mr.. Winkler, a Baptist minister was
with them in their dying hours and
preached fine sermon over every one
of them. Let the passing generation
never forget that these mounds cover
the mortal remains of men. a small
part of that mighty host of the best
and brightest of the sons of the
South, who answered their country's
call and died in her defence 52954
killed, 51,570 died from wounds So
297 died from disease. But who are
these we meet every May to honor?
Listen while | call the roll and don't
forget they were all Of them some
