rifices Of those whose memory we
cherish and whose graves we decorate.
The foundations Of our present-day
immunities were laid in blood. and the
present has no meaning isolated from
the past. Because Of our periodical
looking backward upon heroism and
sacrifice and manhood we learn how
to be brave and patriotic today. and
to revalue the principles and institu-
lions that make for the highest and
noblest personal and national life. Our

and In consequence my husband could
not accompany us. The colonel insist
ed upon my taking my two children
with us, although both were very
small, my little boy, John A. Logon,
Jr., mere baby. However, he regard
ed the trip In the light Of an historic
pilgrimage and felt that the children
should see some of the battlefields
over which distinguished generals had
led their armies.
1T was cold, bleak day on which
we arrived In Richmond, and the ho-
tel was desolate place Of refuge. It
afforded one Of the evidences Of the
privations which the people Of the
.Confederacy had suffered. These evil
dences were very plentiful throughout
the city, as we later discovered. The
vehicle which Colonel Wilson found
for our conveyance for the drive to the
backgrounds nearby was a wretched
carriage drawn by two miserably poor
horses. The driver was the picture of
detection, and the small boy who
served as footman was no better, and
he shivered from head to foot with
the cold.
"As we drove over the battlefields
we observed colored people picking up
the bullets and pieces of shell, shrap-
mel, minnie balls, bits of broken can
non and other iron material Foun-
dries had set price on this product,
and 1t afforded quite livelihood for
time to the poor about fortified cities
and battlefelds.
1--WE visited the churchyards and
cemeteries at Richmond and Peters
burg made historic through the strug-
giles which had taken place in and
around those cities. There were
great many burial grounds In those
neighborhoods, because the globes,
which were land grants from Eng
land to the Episcopal church in
America, had still existed as church
grants at the time of the Civil war.
and were used as burial grounds for
the citizens and soldiers.
"In the burying ground near Peters
burg we saw many hundreds of
graves Of Confederate soldiers, and
they nearly all bore a small, faded
flag, and the dark, withered wreaths
and remains of their floral decoration
of nearly year before. These
mournful mementoes Of the bygone
tragedy Of the South touched me
deeply, and on our return home from
the tour Of the battlefields I told my
husband Of this tribute of the Southern
men and women to their soldier dead.
General Logan reciprocated my
feeling as to the fitness Of the senti-
ment expressed. He said that it was
a revival of the ancient custom, for the
people Of ages past In old countries
had performed the rite Of decorating
the graves Of their dead heroes with
flowers. He considered the matter for
a time, and then said he did not see
why 1t might not be revived in the case
of the fallen Union soldiers.
General Logan, who was then COM
mander in chief Of the Grand Army
of the Republic, decided that he would
issue an order for the decoration of
the soldiers graves on the following
30th Of May. Sending for General
Chapman. adjutant general Of the
Grand Army Of the Republic. he die
tated order No. II for the first dec
grafton of Union soldiers graves
which ever took place in the United
States.
