Civil War Graves
Attest To Bitter
States Struggle
BY DALE BURGESS
Alp Writer


Alp Writer
The glamor and spectacle of con-
flict long past dominates the CEN
tennial observance of the Civil War.
But simple marble monument
at Crown Hill Cemetery in Indian
apolis attests to the fact that all
was not glamor and spectacle.
1t marks the spot where 1915
Confederate soldiers and sailors
their individual identities lost long
ago, lie buried in a common grave.
They died in the Unions Morton
Prison.
In its way. Morton Prison was
as infamous in the South as An
Jacksonville was in the North.
Yet, former Confederate prison
ers thought so highly of its first
commander. Col Richard Owen
that they and their friends sub
scribed funds for a memorial bust
which still stands in the Indiana
statehouse.
For his courtesy and kindness"
Col. Owen commanded the pri-
son only four months after it re-
ceived its first shipment of 3,700
prisoners in February 1862. Under
a succession of unwilling comman-
ders, who would rather have been
in the field, the prison deteriorated.
Augustus NJ. Clark, a government
medical inspector, looked over the
camp in October, 1863 and called
ii "a disgrace. filthy in every
respect; condition of men in barr
acks exceedingly foul; in hospital,
miserable"
In justice to the commanders,
who often had trouble getting adj
equate supplies, many Of the pri-
soners were near death from woun-
DIS, disease and malnutrition when
they reached the prison.
The last prisoners were released
June Is, 1865 and the Indianapolis
Journal reported:
I'm tattered gray and butternut
the poor fellows struggled down
our streets in search of transpor-
tation to their homes. The depar-
ture of many of these has been
delayed because they were in the
hospital. As we saw them, haggard
and pale, tottering along with their
little poverty-stricken bundles, we
felt sincerely sorry for them.
I'm our heart there was no bitt-
erness of feeling against them.
They go back to conquered coun-
try-to overgrown fields to ruined
villages to homes, the chimneys of
which only are left. War is a hard
thing. and it leaves black and
damning trail"
Not trace is left of Morton Pri-
son, which used to be a mile and
half north of Indianapolis. Now
the site is miles inside the city
limits and covered with blocks of
homes.
The dead prisoners were buried
on what then was the west edge
of the city, along White River in
Greenlawn Cemetery.
Industry crowded into the area
and all the remains that could be
found were shoveled into 25 boxes
and moved to Crown Hill in 1928
Wooden grave markers had been
weathered blank. long before
A factory which makes chains,
now occupies the Greenlawn Gem
etery site.
Col. Owen. the commander the
prisoners liked. himself was cap
tured at Munfordville. KY in Sept
ember 1868. On hand was Southern
Gen. Simon B. Buckner. who had
once been a prisoner in indianapolis
although he was permitted to stay
in a hotel outside Morton Prison.
Buckner returned Col Owens
sidearms and thanked him for his
considerable treatment of his pri-
soners. The colonel was paroled
and permitted to return to the Nor
tn.

Perhaps Mel Torme aptly gave
his short but true summary on

Her career with a band started
when Chick Webb had to be con-
vinced that the plump young
singer. only Is, could make the
grade. She accompanied the band
to Yale University and the college
crowd loved her three songs.
While she was a top attraction
at the famous Savoy Ballroom,
Ella made novelty record IA
Tisket, A Tasket' which became
a sens sation from coast to coast.
Her ratings have been con-
sistently high with every pollster
in the United States and Europe.
She made a European tour this
summer and now her audiences
are international.
Tickets for her concert are on

TREES ARE BEAUTIFUL

Trees give a city a beauty that is d described only by poets,
and appreciated by most everyone, either for their beauty or
the cool shade that is given by the spreading branches.
You will go a long way to find a city that has more trees
than Sidney, and the trees in Sidney deserve a lot OF credit Tor
the picturesque beauty they add to our city.
If it were only possible to stop the stickey spray that IS
ever present in the hot weather. This, 1 understand, is caused
by a small insect that matches on the leaves and causes the
leaf bleeding condition.
Is there no spray that the city could apply which would
eliminate this unpleasant condition?
Surely it can't be caused from just a certain species OF
trees for if that is true then we have ali one species in Sidney
for to find a tree where one can park a car under without
getting all "Stuck Up" is next to impossible.
The trees are still beautiful and they do present an added
beauty to Sidney that can't be surpassed.
If we can't stop the unpleasant dripping then it seems
WE ARE STUCK, still we have a wonderful city and our
trees are beautiful.

Overeating disease sometimes

once. An antitoxin can be used
where an outbreak threatens, and
this gives temporary protection
while measures are being taken
to reduce the feeding and stave
off losses.
Actually, the best way to avoid
overeating disease deaths is
through prevention. Weapon No.
l is vaccination ahead Of the
heavy feeding season. BY having
a veterinarian vaccinate with pro-
tective bacterin, the owner can
be reasonably sure his lambs will
be safe from. enterotoxemia for
5 or 6 months.
There are also several other
wise preventive steps which own
ers can take: ID When ration
changes are made, the change
should be gradual. p Animals
should always have plenty of wa
ter. 81 Those which appear over
greedy should have their feeding
checked, because these are the
most likely victims.
Overeating disease involves the
bacteria in the lambs digestive
tract. They do no harm, there,
under normal conditions. But
when the lamb overeats and the
system becomes overloaded,
these bacteria grow quickly and
Ire triggered to produce powerful
poisons. Then, when these poisons
are absorbed into the blood
stream, enterotoxemia results.
This is a potent, killing disease.
We T now entering a season
when it seems to strike hardest,
and the wise feeder will take
every possible measure against it.
