Tho "St arf and Harp," the !ltin
, tier which tho (.'onfodoralo soldierh
nt first (ought. wan thought to be too
nearly like tho I S. tl ig and was
thoroforo changed later during the
course of tho War. While tho "Stars
nnd UarsV wan in use, many serious
orrors were made on account, of tin*
similarity of the two flags; the Union
soldiers sometimes thought that the
Confederate Man wrs their own, and
the United Stairs ll:i<? was often >ui*
-taken for that ot Hie South. Ln or
dor to avoid thin, tho War dpnrtment
of tho Confederacy asked for sug
gestions for tho new tl>*?f. and the
- one which wan accepted was design
od. by Gen. J'eauroguard. This whn
n Grecian cross of blue on n Hold of
rod, with a white star for each at ale
of the (Jonfedorflev One c.hnnge
was made in Hemirogiia/d's 'model,
hotnovet. Tho original rdiapo wsp
oval: tho llig which was adopted,
and used until tho close of tho War,
wns rcctanguhtr in t liapo.
The first. Confederate Hi;* was
?mado from a silk drons by a bids
from Virginia, who wn* willing to
saorifice her all on tho alter of patriot
ism.
And why did the Confederate ?ol
diers fight so nobly 'or their flag?
Was it because it wan a flag mor"
heautiful than tho ordinary? l>id
tho flap: contain sotno mysterious
powofAvhlch cauaed it.s foll??wera to
fight? No. Thoy fought, for their
1 flag bocause it represented tho land
?iitey loved and tho euuf?u f??r winch
they willingly sacrificed t heir homes,
their fortunes and their liven. And
* bravely thoy fought for it, too. Nev
er was there a time hut that,, no mat*
t?r whtft tho circumstances wore, the
boys in gray valiantly followod their
flag to victory or to death. Four
'long years of strife nnd bloodshed
did they follow it, and never once
was the flag disgraced.
Thoso brave men loved and cher
iahed their flag, but they, ala?, are
becoming few in number: thoy are
fftft going to their reward. But
thpse who liavo heard the talo from
the lipa of those who know will not,
car not, forget; and. as long ns there
