Communicated.

Hagerstown, Md, May 81, 1913.
Editor RegiSter-ln looking over some
clippings in a scrap book, have just
run across an article clipped from the
Register OF some years ago, giving an
account OF a picnic held on the fair grounds
by the Henry Kyd Douglas Camp, Sons
OF Confederate Veterans, soon after that
organization was formed. II describes
the crowds that were there, the addresses
delivered by Hon. Blackburn Smith, OF
Berryville, Col. X. p. Chew, OF Charles
Town, and Mrs. McSherry, president OF
the State Chapter of the Daughters OF the
Confederacy, and the rotations and
songs by young ladies' from Martinsburg,
ShepherdStown and HagerStown. The
article winds up with the statement that
all agreed that this event should be held
annually hereafter. Now, comrades, why
cannot we put new life in the old camp?
Let's get together, hold another big pic
mic this summer, and show the people
that we are still alive.
Yours sincerely.

Beloved Veterans.
BY The Shepherdstown Bard.


Again Wen make the bugle swell
With music high and low.
For strong and hardy men that Tell
lust fifty years ago.
Again wen sound the drummer's roll
With deep and warish rattle.
And try 10 cheer each living soul
Who yet survive the battle.
And march to where their comrades lie,
With smile so gay and sweet,
With old-time twinkle in their eye,
And even music with their feet
Though their hair is white and hoary.
And wrinkles bear their brow,
But they're nations sweetest glory,
As they make their usual bow
Ger the grave where sleeps the blue.
With face toward the skies.
Where the gray are sleeping. too.
With love light in their eyes.
Stand erect. ye faithful living.
And do not balk or pause
For your souls are worthy OF giving
Sweetest music and applause.
DroOp not your old but gallant form,
As you face the graves allow
Where men are sleeping ever warm,
OF the battle long ago.
Under the willows soothing shade,
Where the flowers love TO creep.
And look 10 warriors on parade.
You comrades OF the deep.
Though they hear not the bugle's CALL
Nor recollect the day
When myriads near them had 10 fall,
The noble blue and gray
But bright is il for younger eye.
Who love these soldiers brave
That gave their service and not sigh.
As they went TO a sombrous grave.
o. gallant men. you'll never Danish
From the younger folks that read
How thousands OF your corps did vanish
BY some Overwhelming deed.
All. your face well iondly cherish.
Till sapphires are no longer bright.
Till trees and flowers forever perish,
And sun light is no longer bright.
How we love TO serenade you.
As you walk with glorious pride.
How we love 10 cheer and parade you.
To your comrades side by side.
As the drums sound out the rattle,
And the bugle murmurs low.
And brings back the time OF battle
Der your old and wrinkled brow.
When cannons roared and swept with bile
It's fast approaching foe.
That still wear long and lasting smile.
OF the battle long ago.
