A committee consisting of J. L. Underwood, J. A. Kirbo and Dwigh: Hayes was appointed to prepare a memorial notice for the Camilla Enterprise and Pelham Journal. The following is their report: We, Confederate Veterans of Mitchell county, greet each other with that sympathy which every true Confederate feels over the coffin of her brilliant, brave and noble chieftain. General John B. Gordon. He illustrated Southern patriotism, valor and ability on the battlefield and southern man¬ hood and honor in the dark days of reconstruction. True soldiers are true peace makers and no man, north or south, has done more to bring the people of the country together in peace than General Gordon. He (showed that the Southern soldier fears no one and hates no one. We should be grateful for the fast that from President Davis down, all through the Confed¬ erate ranks, there was exhibited so much of high character and lofty courage in fighting for our rights of home rule, and'so much of patience when all was lost. The Veterans of Mitchell county greet the dead with tears and the living with sympathy. J. L. Underwood, J. A. Kirbo, Dwight Haves, Committee.
