vations Of the Day of the
Gettysburg Address.
REMEMBERS WELL THE DAY

In connection with the observance OF
the birthday OF Abraham Lincoln. which
Is next Friday, tho Continent, a Presby-
terrain weekly publication. prints a num-
Der OF letters written by living persons
who attended the dedication OF the ma
tional cemetery at Gettysburg In Novem-
Der. 1863 when Lincoln made his famous
Gettysburg address.
Among those who heard him speak and
whose letters concerning the event appear

words and all the memories called up by
them. and the spot upon which they stood.
no one could start applauding-so there
was almost silent crowd until the bands
began a martial air. Even the papers
failed to praise the speech for several
days--but then the whole nation awak-
ened 20 the fact that a wonderful speech
had been made. one that would live al
