TO REST YESTERDAY
Funeral of Deceased Woman
Occurs on 46th Anniver-
sary of Wedding

Yesterday, the forty-sixth anniversary
of her wedding day, was also the day of
Mrs. Carrie Friedmans funeral. The
services were from the deceased's late
residence, 1927 Twenty-frst street, south,
yesterday morning at o'clock. Interment
was in Temple Emanu- Ell cemetery Rabbi
Morris Newfield officiated
A great concourse of friends gathered
at the nome on South Highlands yester-
day morning to attend the services. The
floral offerings were particularly beauti-
fui.
In delivering her eloquent funeral dis
course. Rabbi Newfield especially empha-
sized the memorable fact that the wedding
anniversary of the deceas sed also proved
the day when her remains were laid to
rest. Rabbi Newfield dwelt on the vir-
tues and the good character of the late
Mrs. Friedman, and in few eloquent
words recalled the many acts of philan-
thropy of the deceased and breathed fer
vid words of praise for her abiding trust
in humanity and God. Dir. Newfield closed
with words that stirred the hearts of his
hearers to take to themselves the lesson
taught by the noble life OF the deceased.
Following the services the large gatilei-
ing of friends and relatives wended their
way in procession to the cemetery. There
the casket, covered by mass of greenery
and beautiful flowers. was placed in its
last repository. The grace was adorned
with many floral tributes from friends
and relatives of many southern cities The
pallbearers were Abe Rich. Joseph

and here they are:
General Pickett was charged by General
Longstreet with the formation of the
troops that participated in the assault.
General Pickett did not lead the columns.
nor did he approach within gunshot of
the deadly wall. His three brigade COM
manders did, however General Gunett
was killed inside the enemys works, and
General Armistead was wounded after
climbing the stone wall with his hat on
his sword. OF General Kemper | find
no record in the two volums of "R. r.
except that General Lee says he was
dangerously wounded.
Now justice should be done If the stars
of fame do pale in some crowns In the
assault in the front line, dressing to the
right on Pickett's regiments, and march,
ing oblique to the left, was Heths di-
vision, Hills corps, containing Archer 5
brigade, composed of two Alabama regi-
ments, the Thirteenth and Fifth Alabama
battalions and three Tennessee regiments,
joining Pickett's left and tapping over
! on it as they advanced. Also thre was
sippi regiments; the Second brigrade (Col-
onel Brockenbrough), four Virginia regi-
ments, and on the extreme left of the
assaulting column, Pettigrews S First bri-
gade of four North Carolina regiments
Behind Heth's division were Lanes five
North Carolina regiments, and Scales
five North Carolina regiments of Pen
ders division. When Pettigrew's brigade
gave way under the concentrated infan-
try and artillery fire on it's front and
left Pender's brgades moved into their
position on the left, their ranks having
been broken by Pettigrews men in re-
treat. Archers brigade was commanded
by Col. b. D. Fry General Archer was
captured July /. Colonel Fry, and Col.
James Marshall, commanding Pettigrew's
brigade, were severly wounded andgwere
taken prisoners. General Pettigrew aft
erwards killed in the retreat had his
horse killed and received wound in
the hands.
Col. S. G. Shepard, of the Seventh Ten
nessee infantry, who wrote the report
of Archer's brigade, says: 'Archer's bri-
gade removed at the works fighting as
long as any other troops either on their
right or left, SO far as | could see.'
Colonel Lawrence. who commanded
Scales brigade, says: Now the pieces
in our front were all silenced Here many
were shot down. being exposed to a
heavy fire of grape and musketry upon
our right flank Now all had forsaken
us. The two brigades (Lanes and Scales)
now reduced to mere squads, not num-
bering in all 500 guns, were the only line
to be seen upon that vast field and no
support In view. The natural inquiry
was, what shall we do? and none to
answer. The men answered for them
selves, and without orders the brigade
retreated." PERCY CLARK.

HOW ABIGAIL WROTE TO JOHN ADAMS

Abigail Adams, the wife of John
Adams. the second President of the
United States. is recognized as one of
the best letter writer's among Ameri-
can women. Her letters on a great
variety of subjects have been collected
and published, accompanied by a biog-
raphy by her grandson, Charles Fran
els Adams. Among the most interesting
of these letters were those to her son.
John Quincy Adams, who later became
the sixth President of the United States.
Abigail Adams was woman of true
greatness and elevation of mind and,
whether in public or private life, she
always preserved the same dignified
and tranquil demeanor. AS the mistress
of household, she united the prudence
of rigid economist with the general
spirit of a liberal hospitality. Faith
full and affectionate in her friendships.
bountiful to the poor. kindly and
courteous to her dependents, cheerful,
and charitable in the intercourse of
social life with her neighbors and ac-
practice of benevolence, and sincere,
unaffected piety. In her family rela-

more worthy of imitation by her SEX
1t was in the following dignified and
odd, but endearing way, that she ad-

LETTERS TO EDITOR
ChairselI Makes Stat ement

To the Editor of The Age Herald.
In an afternoon paper reporting the
proceedings of the meeting this morning
of the Board of Revenue in connection
with the appointment of oil inspector of
Jefferson county appeared an item stat
ing that DR.. Dedman and Gen l.. v.
Clark had spoken to the board in my
behalf, as l had promised to give the
Holy Innocents hospital 5000 per month
out of the proceeds of the office of oil
inspector. As this statement is wrong. I
wish to state that on June 26 [ made
application to the Board of Revenue for
the position of oil inspector and made
them the following proposition:
That l would personally attend to the
duties of the office for the sum of 5000
per month. That the surplus, whatever
that might be, I would divide equally
between the Mercy Home and the Holy
lnnocents hospital that at the end of each
month l would render to the Board of
Revenue detailed sworn statement show
ing all the receipts of the office and
that after deducting $3.50 | would either
turn such surplus over to the treasurer
of the Board of Revenue, or l would
attach to these monthly sworn statements
receipts from these two institutions show
ing that such surplus had been received
by them.
As it has frequently been reported that
the office of oil Inspector pays as much
as from $500 to $500 per month, if this is
the case, my proposition would have given
these two institutions a monthly revenue
of from $500 to $500 per month each
| ask YOU to kindly publish this state
ment for me, for two reasons. paper
has misquoted my proposition to the
Board of Revenue. and this afternoon |
have been asked by some of my friends
why | had appropriated the idea from
the tuberculosis association As stated
my proposition was made to the board
on last Thursday. June 26, and the Anti
tuberculosis association did not enter the
field with their proposition until Mon
day of this week June 30. Yours truly,

The man who took his books and stayed

out of our head is by filing 1t with other

OF course, it's a subject no bromide can

But
Many of us busy folks don't realize how
hot it is until we see the headlines in the

Then ye get busy recalling the day back
in June when the thermometer registered
102 in the shade at 2 o'clock in the aft

an after dinner speaker does on some
thing uninteresting when everybody is
bored to death and wants him to quit.
A person who can stay at home these
