THE BLUE AND THE GRAY
The following letter is of inter
est to all Kentuckians:
March 10, 1913.
Hon. Grant E. Lilly,

hon. Grdnt T.. Lilly,
Richmond, Ky.
Dear Sir::-I thank you sincere
ly for copy of your paper.
| want to call your attention to
the fact, however, that you have
made a mistake as to the first
conception of a monument to the
Blue and the Gray. In 1899 Ken
lucky erected on the battlefield
of Chichamauga monument
which was dedicated TO the men
of both armies and on which was
the following inscription:
Gas we are united in life, and they
united in death, let one monu-
ment perpetuate their deeds, and
one people, forgetful of all asperi-
ties, forever hold in grateful re-
membrane all the glories of that
terrible conflict which made all
men free and retained every star
on the Nations flag"
This was taken from my mes
sage in which | recommended
that the monument should be
erected jointly to the Union and
Confederate dead.
So you will see that Kentucky
and not Georgia is entitled to
first credit.
Shortly after this monument
was erected one was erected by
Emperor William to the German
and French soldiers dead in one
of the Provinces which Germany
WreSted from the French.
| believe the Kentucky monu-
ment was the first in the history
of the world ever erected to the
soldiers who fought on contend
ing sides.
Hope you will succeed with
your paper.
Very truly yours,
w. O. BRADLEY.
In our article on the Blue and
the Gray which appeared in our
paper, we did not claim that
Georgia was the first State to
erect a monument of that kind
but we did not make ourselves
clear. We meant that it was the
first of the seeded States to
take such action. Kentucky was
a neutral State. But we rejoice
to state that Kentucky was the
first State to erect such a monu-
ment.
We hope also that a Kentuck-
ian will be the first to introduce
a bill to erect such a monument
by the United States Govern
ment. Why not have Senator
Bradley do this? No better man
can be found for the honor and
no greater Grafton can be made
by any one in support of the bill
than the Senator can make. If
our idea as to the bridge is not
adopted, then let a monument be
located in Kentucky where the
idea was born.
