few introductory remarks, which
were followed by the singing of
the hymn, "How firm a Founda-,
tiou." The ltev. W. B. Gordon
then came forward, and delivered
an eloquent address on the life
v of Lee, sketching in briof but
moving terms* the grand personal
character of the man whom the
world delights to honor, and
laying considerable stress upon
his great military career.
After another song, the exer
cises were concluded t>y the
beuediclion, pronounced by Rev.

that he did not have time to stay
longer, or he might have made
some of our boys look like thirty
