Gainesville, Ga., Oct. 11. Col. C. C. Sanders, City. Our most highly esteemed friend: It is a source of great pleasure to me that I havo the honor of in forming yon that we, the Chil dren of the Confederacy, Gaines ville, Ga., have considered it our duty in exerting our efforts to keep fresh the memory of the brave and noble sons of the chivalnc South who so heroically sacrificed their lives for the cause of the South—a cause which they believed to be right, and thought the cause of their country, and which, though a lost cause, we hold it as an obligation to the Confederate veterans and to the Confederate dead to keep dear in the minds of the loyal and patrio tic. people of our glorious sunny Southland of to-day—-to name onr Chapter for one of Gainesville’s worthiest representatives in the war for the Cbnfederate cause; and we have acted accordingly, calling it the “C. C. Sanders Chapter of the Children of the Confederacy.* ’ I am, respectfully, Zulah Howington, Corresponding Sec’y. Gainesville, Ga., Oct. 13. Miss Zulah Howington : Corresponding Secretary of the C. C. Sanders Chapter of the Children of the Confederacy: I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your communication of the 11 instant informing me of your selection of my name for the Chapter of the Children of the Confederacy, which you have re cently organized. I had hoped as I had requested your presiding officer, Miss Kate Dozier, that the honor should go to my beloved gallant, and lamented Captain W. ^Fletcher Parks, of my old regi ment, the 24th Ga. Vols., who, when worn out with seuere march ing and the dreadful consumption brought on by exposure and fa tigue of continued battles in Vir ginia, and now lying helpless up on a sick bed oil the bloody field of Chickamauga, near his Georgia home, lay dying in camp, refusing to go home to his wife and chil dren, whom he had not seen for years, because it was impossible to procure written permission from the commanding general, with the army in continued motion. He was willing to die there among his comrades rather than violate the rules of the army. This was heroism unsurpassed! I assum ed the responsibility and com manded him to proceed to home, where he died in a short time with that fearful disease con sumption, and now he lies buried on the banks of the beautiful Cheatatee river, amid the hills of Hall County, Georgia, that gave him birth. He sleeps in sight of the Blue Ridge mountains he loved so well, and fills the grave of the noblest, truest Confederate soldier that ever followed Longstreet and Lee, and upon his grave might be written, “He did right in the sight of the Lord.” When our electric cars line are completed they will pass near his honored grave, when I hope to have the pleasure to carry the “Children of the Confederacy” and scatter flowers over his grave, when the gentle spring shall come, and thus we will honor the trubst and most lovely of Confederate soldiers. Pardon me. Allow me to accept the proffered honor conferred, which shall ever live in fondest memory. As you have willed other wise, I can but thank you, as well as the Chapter of the “Children of the Confederacy.” I have the honor to be, yours, most truly. C. C. Sanders. CONFLICTING ELEMENTS.
