Memorial Day ’ as an outstandim r occasion. The Veteran-- came Into town early so a'-- to have a renn'on with old comrade- before Fathering at the monnnc-nt for the program W’hich <11 of the children from the city -.C ool- participated In the years when the Veterans were able to ma’ch to the Opera u onse and up the steps th er p would be a pro- erurn of music and an address by a nrorninent out of town speaker after which a sumptuous barbecue dinner was served hv the Daugh ters of the Confederacy in the old h'ourt House now the Commun ity Hall \s time took its toll of the strength of their diminishing numbers, the exercises in the Opera House were discontinued and the dinner would he served in an unoccupied store room. When finally only a very few could attend, these and members of their families w’ere enter tained by the Daughters at one of the hotels for dinner. It was indeed a sad Memorial Day when not a Veteran could come Into town. Other wars and rumors of wars have so engrossed our attention that wt- have grown forgetful of the one day in the year on which to honor the memories and recall the deeds of that Army in Gray— our fathers, grandfathers, great grandfathers. In South Carolina today there is only one Confederate Veteran living -Mr. Arnold Murray o f Orangeburg County—the sole liv ing representative of the thous ands from this state who fought during those four bloody years. The Daughters of the Confed eracy are anxious to call to the minds of the public generally that May 10th Is South Caro lina’s Confederate Memorial Day and for what it stands. Towards this end they are giving every body an opportunity to wear a small Confederate flag on Memor ial Day and thus honor your Confederate forbears. Other announcements as to the observance of the day will follow As is the duty of the two chapters, the Calvin Crozier has charge of the January 19th. exercises, and the Drayton Ruth erford plans for May 10th.
