I would like to state again,
without fear of contradiction, that
the delebration of Memorial Day*
as now observed in the south, had
ita origin at Columbus, Ga., April
26th, 1866. and resulted from sug
gestions made by Mrs. Roswell
Ellis (then Miss Lizzie Ruther
ford) and Mrs. Charles J. Wil
liams about the same time.
This fact has been proven by
written testimony from eye-wit-
nesses and participi.nts in the ob-
servanca of the day, as well as by
and is now re-
antl district Sunday

While no objection Is made to the
purpose of any one of these organ
Izutlons, it claimed that young lift
l-i being distracted by the numbei
< f organizations claiming theii
time and attention, and. that, In
some cases they arc treated to so
much of the "pep and Jazx type
of religion’’ as to receive JJttle ol
value and make It more difficult
for the church to do a work o
solid worth with them.

Memorial Day I
Isabel Worrell Ball acknowl
edges that Mrs. John A. Logan'
whom she claims to have first
suggested Memorial day did not
celebrate It until May, 188, two
yean later than waa done af ~
lumbui.
A letter from Mrs. Logan
self will eettlo the controversy
leave no further discussion of
matter. .. •
Mrs. Nannie Pogrom Eddin.
of Petersburg, Ba. in writing if
Memorial day as celebrated in Pe
tersburg, May 28, 1868, lays:
"Mrs. John A. Logan was jius-
ent and there conceived the idea ol
a National Memorial day.
“When she returned to. her h<>m‘',>
she told Gen- Logan what the bail
seen in the Petersburg. Va., church
yard and he decided to have-a Me
morial day set aside, and issued an
order as commander of the G. A H.
So Mrs. Logan did first suggest
what is now Decoration day,
30 in the north.
Mrs. I.0gan in 1901 gave cretlit
to the south for first suggesting
the custom.
She said:
“Thirty-five years after the
first Memorial aay it is one of the
most beautiful of its result to
know thst reunited people, setting
aside distinctions of class and par
entage enter into the eolemn cel
ebration of the sacred day hand in
hand and heart and heart.
“The soldier boys wha laid down
their lives for what they felt to be
e sacred cause lie buried in every
cemetery In the land, and their
grave* today will be strewn with
flowers and covered with the flag
of a reunited nation, animosities
deed, fuede forgotten, but ono sen
timent paramount in the hearts of
the loyal people who garnish them
—honor to the heroic dead.
