crate chteftain. the late and beloved
General John Il. Gordon; Mrs. j. F..
b. Stuart, widow OF General j. E. b.
Stuart, who gave up his life at yell
low Tavern Va, almost within sight
of the Confederate capital: Mrs. Vir-
ginia Clay-Clopton. OF Huntsville. Ala,

of rare charm of.heart and mind: Mrs.
Pickett. of Virginia, widow OF the
brilliant and dashlng Pickett. who
charged into the mouths of blazing
cannon AT Gettysburg. making for
himself an imperishable name.
These are four of the women who

of the Southern States. and the last
measure of devotion was paid to an
ideal and cause by thousands of
their best men
