“NOT DEAD BIT SLEEPING”
By Mrs. Addie Bryan Edwards.
Cheerfully dedicated on Memorial
Day to our brave Confederate soldiers.
Rest brave soldiers! Gently slumber..
Where the green turf o'er you waves.
Fairest hads, with fond emotion,
Decorate your lowly graves ,
With the first sweet flowers of spring,
Love’s sweetest, tenderest offering.
When war’s tocsin first resounded,
With a shrill and deadly blast,
Ease and comfort you relinquished
And came rallying brave and fast.
Around the standard, now laid low;
To Save our homes from direst woe.
Sad the partings and fall tender.
Loved ones clung around you so.
But wfth loyal hearts, most bravely.
Crushed back tears, and bid you go.

Anger has no diabolical satisfaction of'

not take the name of the Lord. Thy
Cod in vain" is equally binding with

rette habit; but 1 am told that
