Our home Land
Twenty years ago. 9 tb of
this mouth, since our noble Lee
surrendered at Appomattox.
At that time the condition ot
rhe South was indescribable,
gloomy. Her fortunes shattered,
thousands of her noblest sons
lying ou the field of battle or
else hurriedly, roughly covered
by the chilly sod, the earth
dampened by the tears of wid¬
owhood and the heavens reech
oiijg the sorrowing cries of des¬
titute orphanage. Mother
mo jrning for children slain, and
father bent with age lilting
dim spectacled eyes to his God
for needed help, and then
glancing down the long narrow
lane, hoping almost against
hope, t: see him that was to be
the stay of his declining years,
making his way to the bright
and happy home, to receive the
loving embraces of a fond moth¬
er and the tearful benedictions
of an aged father.
Dark indeed were those days;
but they were harbingers of a
brighter morn. Stepping from
the gloomv past to the bright,
prosperous present of out south
land, our hearts should beat
with joy as we survey her
wonderful acheivements aud
her still advancing glories,
Her progress on every fine is
phenomenal, and she is prepar
ing for still grander victories in
the future. Coutrast the pres¬
ent outlook with that of two
decades and see it there
not much ot wlfrttr we nr«y
justly proud. Grand old land
of historic memories, the home
of patriots as pure as ever
blessed the world, the mother
of statesmen who art* worthy
to attend the courts of a Solo -
raon, the mother of orators
whose eloquence has been heard
around the globe, the mother
of poets whose tenderly pathet¬
ic strains are sung by the peo¬
ple of two continents, to you
are bound, by the golden chain
of filial devotion a million of
earnest selfdenying hearts. For
you rises morn and eve, thoiw*
audsof anxious faithful prayers,
in tbe answer of which prayers
will descend upon you bre- zes
of still greater prosperity from
the hills of God, and your histo¬
ry in the future will be lighted
up by tbe brighter smiles of
uneqnaled ea’thly rappiness.
Your crown of lejoicing will <>e
geraed by your multitudinous
merits, overhung by tin* ma¬
ny colored rainbow, laureled
bv the flowers that bloom on
your bosom and interwoven by
the loving wreaths of your
children.
