"We all love and admire Augusta for her fair daughters, her gallant men and her friendship for the Confederate sol diers. We love Richmond county for her fertile fields and her desolate, scarred old hills. We love her, too, for the rights she has maintained and for the suffering she has endured. We love her for all of her brave men whose blood stained almost every battlefield; hut we love her beet of all for the sacred dust she holds of General Leon. Idas Polk, and hundreds of others who died for us. "The same spirit that nerved the peo ple of the South to sacrifice life and fortune In defense of a cause as right eous ns Heaven Is Just, actuated our comrade Morris, of Marietta, to erect a monument of marble, at hls own ex pense, on the summit of Pine Moun tain, where General Polk fell.

"For those who perished In that con. filet she has raised monuments and carved statues to commemorate their heroic deeds. "It will be a source of Southern pride to this audience to know that Ken tucky, the home of John C. Brecken ridge and John H. Morgan, and the birthplace of Jefferson Davis, a neutral state during the war, that furnished thousands of brave men to the South ern army, has erected forty-two monu ments In memory of Confederate sol diers. and not one to the Federate. "To those who lived on and wrought the wonderful work of building up this war-swept land, she has given her highest honors and Is still determined never to • turn down the Confederate soldier when worthy and competent. "Our beloved commanders are en shrined In the hearts of their admir ing countrymen, but did you ever con- elder how their glory and renown were achieved? "Did you ever reflect that they might have exercised all their military skill and yet fame would have been to them a fleeing shadow but for an effective factor, which realized In action their matured plans, and that factor was the bravery, heroism and resolution of the private soldier of the Confederacy, Tho Private 8oldier. “Take from our history the devotion and gallantry of the private soldiers and few Indeed would have been the laurels entwining the memories of our departed leaders. "The private soldiers gloried In the fame and renown of their Immortal chieftains, and with forgotten graves were themselves content, "As long as Lookout mountain rears Its head above the bloody flelds of Chlckamauga, like the Chimborazo of the Andes, so long will the glory won by Confederate soldiers live In his tory. “Bee this flag with Its stars and stripes! We honor It; we respect It. and we will defend It with our lives; but the flag with Its stars and bars that floated over the victorious legions at Manassas and Shiloh Is the flag of our hearts. "Some of you were blessed In being spared to participate In the great re union of Richmond In May last, and In standing at the grave'of President Da. vis In Hollywood cemetery overlook ing the James, Is the bronze figure of our flrst, last and only president. "We could not refrain from contrast. Ing It with Alexander the Great, who stood on the banks of the Ganges and sighed for more worlds to conquer; Jefferson Davis, standing on the banks of the James In bronze, the personlfl- catlon of chivalry, will live forever In the hearts of hls people. Davis and Lincoln, "Our young people should be taught to remember that when Jefferson Da vis was fighting and bleeding In the battles of Cherubusco and Cerrogordo, Abraham Lincoln Was denouncing the war with Mexico as unconstitutional. "When Jefferson Davis was leading the gallant Mlsslsalpplnns in the bloody charge of Buena Vista, the Northern multitudes were yet applauding the eloquence of the stateeman from Ohio, who had declared In the hallo nf the congress of the United States that the Mexicans should receive the Ameri cans with bloody hands and welcome them to hospitable graves. “Jefferson Davis was the hero of Buena Vista, and Buena Vista made General Taylor president. "Disfranchised and In chains, Jeffer son Davis was nobler than Caesar with a senate at hls heels. He created nation; he followed Its bier; he wrote Its epitaph, and died the Idol of hls people. "In behalf of these faithful Southern men. It becomes my pleasant duty to return thanks to the splendid people of Augusta for this great welcome. 1 speak for the men whose records were made upon the field of battle, and. thank God, no power on this earth can take from nor add to that record. Their records prove that In war no danger daunted them; no force appalled them; no suffering subdued them, and no de feat disheartened them. "I speak for the men who will trans. mlt their memories and their virtues to posterity, as Its best Inheritance. "They can be relied upon to defend their homes and flresldts, remembering always that the home, the family cir cle, Is the fountain head of good gov ernment “I speak for the men who will keep the Southern country, the cradle nf lib erty, and the hope of the Caucasian race on this continent... the shrine ,»f religion, of beauty, and of purity. “Now, my comrades, as old age creeps on, the web of life may seem jagged and rough, but It Is a consola tion to remember that God knows the way—He holds the key— He guides us with unerring hand. Sometime with tearless eyes we'll see. And then up there we'll under stand!"' Special to The Georgian. Augusta, Go., Nov. 1!.—Governor Hoke Smith delivered n ringing ad dress to the veterans today, which was received with cheers and applause at various points. Governor Smith reviewed the his tory of the gallant Georgia troopB, and hls references to .General Gordon and tho I2th of May,{ and to General Clem ent A. Evans, brought, forth a storm of applause. The address follows; / "I deem It a privilege to address you. A record of courage and patriotism can never die. It must live to furnish In spiration for future ages. And so Georgia claims you not nlone with hls. torlc pride, but because of the Influ ence your deeds may have upon the present and upon the days that are to come. "You who are before me have been with our great generals and have fought the battles which gave their names to fame. "Some of you were on Marie's heights near Fredericksburg and helped to hold In check the columns which marched up alongside the rock wall until you had actually filled the road with the enemy who were slain, and some of you saw there your general fall and bore him from the field. “Some of you were In the great charge at Malvern Hill which General A. R.

He was pouring thousands of fresh troops through the center of the Confederate line, the army of Gen- eral Lee was about to bo split In two and inevitable defeat and capture must at once follow. But General Gordon's command was rapidly moving toward tile captured point. General Gordon, with General Robert Johnson, rode In front. Suddenly it was discovered that the enemy w*as Immediately before them. General Johnson was severely wounded. Hls next In comamnd was ordered by Gen. Oordon to stretch out hls brigade In skirmish line across Hancock's entire front and charge. This gave General Gordon time to change front and form line of battle with hls other brigades ready for a counter charge. General Lee was there. He rode to a point near the center of the line and turned hls horse's head to the front. With uncovered head he turned hls face toward Hancock's ad- vanctng column. HI* purpose to lead the charge was plain. General Gor don seized the bridle of General Lee a horse and said: General Lee, this Is no place for you. Those men are Georgians, Vlr- glnlans and Carolinians. They have never failed you. They will not fall you here, will you boys?’ "You helped make the naawer.
