ITO the members Of the Grand

saw and are here for a short stay;
and ladies and gentlemen:
For several months the people OF
this city have been making prepara-
tons to entertain the old soldiers OF
the Grand Army of the Republic, the
home corners and those who were born
and raised in this city, and have
gone out into the world and are back
with us for short stay, and also the
old settlers of Hancock county.
ION behalf of the people OF this
city, l extend to you all the most
hearty welcome We feel proud of the
privilege to so entertain you, and es-
pecially do we feel proud OF the
privilege of entertaining those who

the Republic.

the audience. The remarks of the col
onel, who was personally known to
most Of the old soldiers attending the
reunion, were given much acclaim.
Captain Frank Vending. brother of
the late George r. Vending of Bloom
ington, ILL.,, who was widely known
as lecturer, delivered short adj
dress, taking the place on the program
of Hon. B. M. Chiperfield of Canton,
ILL.,, who was unable to fill his en-
gagement.
Bishop Fawcett's Address.
Rt. Rev. M. E. Fawcett. Episcopal
bishop of the Quincy diocese, one OF
the most distinguished theologians in
the west, delivered the principal ad-
dress and was accorded most at
tentive hearing. The learned bishop
made four principal points In his re-
marks, the following: That bravery
in war was not matter of geo
graphical section, that Americans are
not peddling churls, that human be-
ings could not be held as chattels on
the North American continent, and
that a citizen soldiery Is equal to the
the defense of q nation. The fore
going. he said, had been demonstrated
by the civil war. War was never de-
sirable and perhaps never justifiable,
but when It does come, humanity
must wait on the issue fought out by
the patriotic men that respond. Those
who had fought for liberty in tho
American wars were benefactors OF
humanity, and admiration for their
achievements increased with the lapse
Of time. Each age that, comes and
goes should have word for thoss
benefactors. OF Samson it is written
that he slew at his death more than
he had killed during his lifetime. The
same might be written Of those who
sacrificed their lives in the interest
of the federal government.
Significant War Fact.
A remarkable fact of the civil war
was that two millions of men called
to arms simultaneously ceased from
war and returned to the paths OF
peace and civil life. The soldiers
went from all rangs of society, became
imbued with knowledge of war and
then when the contest was finally
decided, stepped back quietly into
the ranks Of civil life. This was an
amazing fact OF history. The right |
eousness Of the cause in which they
were engaged was the impelling mo-
tive of the soldiery.
Bishop Fawcett in concluding, al /!
luded to the awful recurrence Of
barbaric warfare in Europe and then
inviting the audience to stand he Of
fered a prayer ito the great God that
He would send peace to Europe" The
audience remained silent and motion
less while brief prayer was uttered.
The program Of exercises included
selections by the martial band and a
vocal selection given in, superb style
by Rev. George Long, Professor c.
Fairfax, and Miss Edith Dallam.
The soldiers and sailors adopted
this morning resolutions expressing |
their appreciation OF the hospitality
and cordial reception that had been
rendered them by the people Of War
saw.

WARSAW, ILL.,. Sept. 30.-Warsaw,
long famed for her hospitality, today
excelled all her previous efforts in
the way Of public entertainment in
her Fort Edwards centennial jubilee,
homecoming and monument dedica'
tion. The largest crowd ever assem-
ble5 within the confines Of the town
Is gathered here. 1t is estimated at
from seven to ten thousand. Keokuk
had 1900 people here this afternoon.
All sections of Hancock county are
represented. At least five hundred
farmer residents of Warsaw are here,
coming from as widely divergent CEN
tiers as New York City and San Fran
cisco. While the accommodations OF
Warsaw have been rather heavily
taxed, all visitors we're provided for.
The handsome fifty-foot monument on
the site OF old Fort Edwards. built
under the command OF Major Zachary
Taylor in 1914 and abandoned by the
federal government in 1924. Is the
niyot aroun6 which the festivities OF
the week center.
How Funds were Raised.
This monument cost $500. There
was appropriated by the state of ILL
nois. $4,000: local residents Of War
saw contributed $1,000 and former
citizens, loyal sons and daughters OF
warsaw, gave $4,000. The monument
was constructed under the supervision
of the following commission appointed
by Governor Dunno Of Illinois:
Phil Dallam, editor Warsaw Bulle-
tin: Mayor Louis Lamet. secretary;
j. H. Hungate Of LaHarpe; Judge u.
J. schofield OF Carthage; Judge VIM
]. Franklin OF Macomb. The respon-
sibility Of the task rested largely upon
the local members Of the committee.
Details OF this successful celebra-
ton were in charge OF the following
executive committee:
Truman Plantz, ST., chairman; j..
M. Hungate. George G. Risto, DR.. T.
A. Hartley, w. A. Dodge, Rev, George
Long, A. J. Buckert, Julius X. Eymann.
Splendid Decorations.
Main street is mass OF hags anu
buntings, nearly every business houss
and many private residences beins
handsomely and deliberately decorat-
ed. From the depot at the foot Oh
Main street to Seventh there is q
mass of color, while even the more
unpretentious streets are filled with
decorations.
Magnificent Parade.
The parade, which did not move
until II o'clock, was an imposing al
fair. It. was headed by the Warsaw
band, while the Illinois Fifth infantry
band dispersed melody from stree
platform while the procession was
passing. Following the fire depart
ment apparatus. which was beautifully
decorated, came the several fraternai
societies OF Warsaw and number OF
handsomely trimmed automobiles,
Features of this parade were the foats

we pause for a moment and show our
mark of appreciation for the sacri-
fees that have been made by both
the living and the dead Of the Grand
Army OF the Republic in the civil war.
No greater sacrifice can be made by
any man than to sacrifice his home.
his wife, children. parents and friends
for the defense of his country. At
this particular time the younger gen.
GRAFTON can realize some of the hard
ships that the Grand Army Of the Re-
public endured, by reading the daily
papers and accounts Of the great con-
flict that is now in progress In the old
world. No greater honor or privilege,
therefore, can be bestowed upon US
than to entertain and show our ap-
probation Of the valued services that
have been performed by the rank and
file Of the old soldiers. I care not
have been to the nation, there are no
sacrifices so severe as what was made
by the rank and file OF the Grand
Army of the Republic. While we ap-
preciate and forever respect the val
ued services Of Lincoln and Grant
and of many others, their services
would have been Of little value had 1t
not been for you who went out and
took the front rank in the battle field.
For and because of these great
sacrifices, we consider 1t privilege,
as well as an honor to entertain you
in our city and again extend to you a
most hearty and cordial welcome, and
trust that your stay with us will be
a pleasant recollection to you"
Response by Veteran.
Major r. W. McClaughrey, former
warden of the federal prison at Fort
Leavenworth, and one of the best
known penologists in America, re-
sponded briefly but entertainingly to
the welcome extended by the city's
executive. Colonel McC1aughrey was
reared in Hancock county and lived
in the vicinity Of Fountain Green when
the civil war broke with all its horror
and armed strife. He gave some
