Vice * President - elect Fairbanks occupied the central por tion as chief guest of honor. Justice William R. Day, friend, neighbor, confidant of toe late president, was master of ceremonies. To hie left was Gen. Fltzhugh Lee, idol and hero of the South. Vis-a-vis sat General Black, one of the heroes of the civil war and former commander-in-chief of the Grand Army of the Republic. On either side of these guests were Governor Myron T. Herrick and Lieu tenant-Governor Warren G. Harding, of Ohio. These were the speakers of the eve ning. Among the listeners was Mrs. McKinley. “Mcivlnley and the South” was Gen. Lee’s subject. He said: Gen. Lee's Speech. “Ohio it is true, is the state of his nativity. Her citizens knew and loved the living McKinley. Her soil Is sacred with the grave which marks the resting place of the dead McKin ley; her people will cherish his lofty character and his splendid services, as long as the mountains kiss the heavens, or the rivers roll to the sea. “Ohio, however, cannot bound his boundless fame, for on the wings of renown his glory has been wafted to all parts of the world. 'Sleep on, oh just and wise ruler. Your birth was a blessing to your county; your life a blessing to all its inhabitants; your death a calamity, which has excited the lamentations of a world. “The poison under the wing of the American eagle which John Randolph said he saw when lint pluming him self for his splendid flight, has been extracted, and all the sections tonight hear the echo of the voice of the great soldier, U. S. when on his and Conf•fi ddlers. U shall not be here to witness it in ltd perfection, but I feel within me that It Is to be so. “‘Let us have peaoe.' Under Two Flags. “I have tried, in my own person, to make good this expression of the renowned soldier, and today there are hanging in my library two swords linked together, side by side—one used as a major-general when a Con federate soldier, the other worn as a major-general of the United States volunteers. “The weapons of Grant and Lee have been sheathed forever. The sa bers of Sherman and Stuart have been returned to their scabbards, and the tents of Sherman and Joe Johnston have been pitched forever on the eter nal camping grounds, and all over this land at this hour is shining the great orb of peace in all the splendor of undimmed majesty. “May tho harmonious Invocations from forty-flvo states rise to the heav ens, sweep above the stars, invoking country progress, peace and prosperity; and let ail fervently pray that when the veil of futurity shall bo lifted there shall be revealed the up ward and onward course of the Amer ican Union; that a republic will bo visible, representing a power and com manding a respect that the mighty armies of Caesar and Augustus never won for tho Imperial eagles, and that in it sectiou may never lift its hand against section again; neither shall they know war any more, and that the reign of peace, unity and fraterni ty shall be as lasting as the home of tho stars, as everlasting as the foun tains of the everlasting hills.” Justice and Mrs. Day this afternoon gave a luncheon In honor of General Late in the afternoon the local posts of the Grand Army of tho Re public gave a post-room reception in honor of Generals Lee and Black.
