No higher compliment can conic to any man limn that of being accorded the prtvltodgc and pleasure of par ticipating ?oday in these sacred, in teresting exeercises. South Carolina, cooling lier brow in tho pure air of her lofty mountains, and laving her feet In the warm wa ters of the Atlantic, and utilising the brains of her SOBS and daughters, will yet realize the dream of her ma terial greatness. And tho splendid people of this beautiful growing city oi Anderson, and of this hinorio old county, tell us in unmistakable tones that ? in honoring the presence of Confederate soldiers here today, no token of es loeiu eau bc too profuse, no mark of respect can he too emphatic, and no rendition of honor can be too con spicuous. Tho hand upon the dial cannot be seen us lt moves, but lt does move nevertheless and i:o curely, as lt keeps pace with the circling sun, so surety is tho fame and glory of these Confederate Soldier? safe in thc hands of these patriotic daughters of the Confederacy. All good people respect and admire South Carotins for her glorious mem ories, her gallant sons and ber fair daughters. We love South Carolina loo, for lier fertile fields, and her desolate battle scarred old hills; we lovo South Carolina Cor the rights ?HA has maintained, and for the suffer ing she has enaured; we love ber fer all of her brave men whose blood stained almost every battle field, but we love her best of all for the- sacred dust she bolds of General Wade Hampton, and'thousands of others who su/Tcred and endured for-us. Itererfs to .Stirring Days. Reverting today to that period In your country's history when this fair land was submerged in war and bloodshed and recalling its dangers and discomforts, and its toils and Its trials, oftentime with naught in haver sack save porched corn, we would not, if we could, blet out one day's record from the memory. Over its somber shadows fell then, and falls now, that light that comes to every heart in tho path of duty. There cortes, too, across the waste of yearn, a jiision of that knightly soldier, Saime) M. Wilkes, adjutant of the .ttl South Carolina Regiment, who yielded' up his young and promising lifo on tho altar of hi? country in the first battle of Manases. Methinks wu see him now aa he rode-the lines with the light of hattie in his eyes and the thunderous charge upon his Ups. He rode tuto our hearts, the imper- ' sonstion of chivalry, and he tides there still.' These-cuff buttons in n.v cuffs, with the palmetto tree and the coat of arms of South Carolina on tholr face, are valued far beyond the computation of dollars and cents be cause, they aro tho buttons that were taken from the Confederate grey coat worn by Adjutant Wilkes. His deeds and virtues- are being perpetuated and sacredly guarded by his worthy son, Colonel Samuel W. Wilkes of Atlanta. Thc body of Adjutant Wilkes waa hurled In your cemetery here, and rests today beside that of bis beloved wife, one of thc sweetest and noblest women I have ever known. As long as lookout Mountain rears Its head above the bloody plains of Chickamauga Uko the Chimbarazo of the Andes, so long will th? sacrifices of such men remain bri'jht upon the pages of history: ' Confed?rate Army Superior The world's histories fail to give an aeon nt of any army under sod general, on any field, that equals thc Confederate Army. It was that army whose first shot, fired at Fort Slim tor, In your State, in 1861. that echoed at the throne of royalty the world over, and wan muffled Into fret dom's song In every household where the op pressor's heels was felt, and1 you, my comrades, who composed that army, you gave Manas sss to Beauregard; you woro the music of tb? battle of Soven Pines into laurel wreaths for Joseph E.

Sentiment gave to Damon his unyielding devotion for Pythias, and led Joan of Arc to.sacrifice the ?life of n heroine on toe.miter ot her country's love; sentiment nerved the noble manhood of the South to sacri fice life and fortune in defense of a cause righteous as heaven is just!
