LADIES' UNTRIMME
MJ.MO.RIAL DAY.
Wo Honor Our Dead--Exercises at the
Court House.
Thursday was a most unpropitioue
day for the usual ceremonies incidenl
to Memorial Day. The rain was con.
stant all day, and at one time it wat
thought that the exercises would hav
to be postponed, but it takes more
than rain to dampen the loving re.
membrance of those noble men an
women who hold as one of their dear
est treasures the courage and devotior
of those heroes who gave their lives t<
the Southern cause. All day th<
ladies were busy, notwithstanding th<
unfavorable weather, in adorning ti<
Court House with beautiful flowers.
At the appointed hour the Cour
House was fillied With people wh<
came to commemorate the valor o:
the Confederate dead.
The result of the ladies' labor wa:
quickly apparent to all. Who deski
within the bar were completely coy,
ocred with beautiful flowers. The ros
trumis in the room were also tastefull)
decorated with garlands and wreath'
of fragrant flowers. ' Conspicuous or
the walls and the rostrums were thesi
sentiments:.
"Our confidence in the purity ani
courage of the past is eternal."
"Our honored dead live In ouw
'hearts."
"The love of our noble dead is frosi:
again with the glory of flowers."
The exercises were opened witi
prayer by the Rev. J. G. Glass, aftei
which a most beautiful song, touch
angly rendered, was sung by a chort
of voices under the leadership of Prof
Witherow. Mr. II. N. Obear ther
read the ode, a poem by IIenry Nhn.

The chorus then renderod the song,
"Rest, Soldier, Rest," DuBose Egles,
ton, Eeg., in some well chosen and
appropriate prefatory remarks, intro,
duced the orator of the day, Capt,
I. N. Withers, as one most worthy tc
speak of the heroic endurance and
sacrifice of the Confederate soldier,
Capt. Withers rose and was r'e
ceived wilth groat applause. WVe art
sorry that we cannot In this Issue givt
his elloquent speech In full. We will
do so hdreafter. Ile said, however,
that he did not propose to onter intc
any dise'usnlon of the circumtances
that led to the war, but would speali
entirely of those who fought and died
for freedom. IIe gave a scathing re
buko to those demnagcgues who keel
alive the fires of sectional animosity,
and said that could those dead horoei
on either side speak they would rlst
up and condemn such sentiments. II<
then paid a glowing and eloquent trib
uto, as ho only can do it, to the Con
federate soldiew. Speaking to th<
ladies of the Association, he told themr
that heaven itself was looking from its
battlements upon their labor of lovt
and would reward them for it y that ii
was the history of nations that they
are wont to honor their dead with on

no lofty shaft of beautiful marble to
perpetuate the memory of the heroic
dead, but that their dee.is of daring
and unselfish sacrifice to their coun
try's good would ever be green in the
hearts of their co-patriots, was re
r ceived with enthusiastic approval.
The above is the merest synopsis of
this eloquent address. We hope to
give it in full to the people of the
county later, that it may be filly ap
preciated.
Capt. Withers was frequently inter
rupted by long and loud applause, and
the universal sentiment is that it was
one of the most eloquent and touch
ing addresses ever delivered in Winns
boro.
At the conclusion of the oration,
the chorus sang, "Treadl Lightly O'er
ITheir Graves," with great effect, after
which the closing prayer was offered
by the Rev. D. E. Jordan.
A box was placed at the door for
subscriptions for the purpose of keep
-ing the graves of soldiers buried ini
Virginia in proper condition. The
amount realized was 621.45, an
amount that was most gratifying,
being the largest sum that has yet-teen
had in any such meeting.
Strawberries and ice-em were
served and the amount thus realized
will go to the building of a Confed
erate monument at this place.
The chorus which furnished the
music have the thanks of the entIre as
semblage for their excellent rendition
of the songs on the programme. It is
generally remarked that it was as fine
as has ever been listened to in Winns
boro.
Notwithstanding the inclemency of
the weather, carriages were called for
the committees on decoration. at the
different church-yards and flowers
were strewnt over the graves of the
honored dead.
