In the iife of Xev-'berry, and of the j fkate and nation, this announcement: i will cause no ripple upon the surface i o? events. i But it is well, occasionally, to hark i [ toiek to the times which made this ; I State what it is, and preserved it as it was made. * When the call came in the sixties.: i Barger, giving himself, went into the I service of the South, and the manner 1 in which he fought,and how he served,. i > ^ is a matter of historic record. He j proved himself a patriot, and, fighting 5 * * >- 1 1 > A rt Vi ? mnkt n f lor wnai ne uenoeu cu ^-c usui., ?, *. man without fear. s Coming; back from the fields where * the musWtry and shrapnel mowed i down the ranks, where the blood of the dead and the wounded sanctified ' the soil, he devoted himself, as best ^ r I he'could, to his humble part in the ' ^ work of rebuilding the lost fortunes ft cf a peoule. j f He needs no eulogy. In the great c sepulchre where all men are equal, except as their real merit places them v above their fellow, his statue in re- i pose is that of a man. A (Jonieuerata -? soldier, who was unassuming, and of s ' i? whom his comrades said that he was : a brave; a laborer, who worked for his own living, and asked no odds of any i2 man, except that he be given the right, A decreed by the Master, to earn nis livelihood; always courteous; always ^ gentlemanly; always hones't and sin-' Vi cere; always true to his friends and always, under the most difficult c: i circumstances, putting up a brave i front?this was Barker?.Uncle Kosea, i as we used to call him. s Those who knew him best know j that in the days to come?the last / } flays, when men shall pass in final : judgment, and all petty distinctions r< art dissolved in the white light of the s< glance of the Great Judge, and merit p counts, and self-sacrifice is held at its j a true worth, and hard work, in the face j 1 of almost superhuman obstacles, j is recognized?we know that he will1 have his reward. : Our remembrance of his courage ir ajfc loyalty shall be the simple wreath ^ which we would lay upon his grave.; aJ.
