As our fathers without hesitation volun teered their services to their coun try and made personal sacrifices In displaying their affection for their country, so I believe the sons of these South Ootalina mothers should be among the very drat to volunteer for service in Mexico. Ev erybody knows that no braver regi ment has seen service anywherj than the celebrated Palmetto Regi ment from South Carolina In the Mexican war in the ’40'a. If # the government of the United States ac cepts us as volunteers for service in Mexico 1 dp not know to which branch of the servire we will be as signed!

Of course in accepting these volunteers I am not able to say. what use the govern- »nent will make df them. It must be understood by men who are vol unteering through me that they w ill have to undergo rigid tests and /'xaminatlons and that they will •have to accept the conditions laid down by the government.
