HUMAN LIFE.


What is life? A span of years?
A tale of joy? A vale of tears?
Life is a time TO reap and sow;
To love and labor and TO know
This human life does now reveal
A foretaste of the heavenly real;
That love made manifest in man
Does but declare the Fathers plan.
The past holds golden sheaves for you
Gathered from fields still wet with
dew.
In the farther past, as soldier lad,
You offered your life and all you had.
Gallant you led your men in the fray,
Fearless and brave till they won the
day.
Then in your face a new light shone,
In sacred JOY you came marching
home.
The golden past is "tale that is told".
The pure white present is never old;
Your future is green and fresh and
fair;
Long may its joys be yours to share.
Major Stevenson entered the army
in 1862 and was Immediately appoint
ed sergeant-major of the 21st Michi-
gan infantry, which was in camp at
Ionia and went south in September to
join General Buel's army. In less than
a year he was promoted through the
various grades from sergeant-major
to second lieutenant, first lieutenant
and captain. He participated with
his regiment in the battles of Perry
Vile, Stone River, Chickamauga, Ben
tonville and other engagements. His
regiment joined Sherman's army at
Atlanta on the morning of its depar-
ture on its famous march through
Georgia to the sea.
Major Stevenson's regiment took
part in the Grand Review of General
army at Washington and
he was mustered out as brevet-major
at Detroit in 1865.
