MEMORIAL ADDRESS
Delivered On Sunday May 29 1904 at
McCook Neb by Rev J J Loughran
Published by request of tho G A R post
My friends wo tho people of this grout em
pire of freo states are called upon today to per
form a loving and patriotic duty to pay tho
tokon of Jove and tho meed of praise to our de
parted heroes Wo assemblo with Jove with
praise with joy and also sorrow softened by
tender recollections We come to impress in
spirit n kiss upon tho bronzed face of the dead
soldier Wo come to clasp the hand to em
brace with onr arms in fond recollection the
boys old and young who over 40 or less years ago
offered their lives as a sweet sacrifice on tho altar
of freedom that the nation might livo Wo come
to thank them and to place a garland a crown
of victory upon their brow And then to rosolvo
to model outlives after theirs so that poster
ity may do as much for us as wo hopo to do for
thoso heroes saviors martyrs of our blessed
country
And it is meet and right that we should Wo
thus keep their memory alive Wo bring them
back into the family and social circle Wo seo
them in thoir gaiety and abandon we seo the
tears and embracing at parting we seo them
flushed with victory on tho return those who
did return we see also tho empty sleeve the
crippled leg veterans scarred and maimed for
life Wo speak with themWe laugh with them
wo weep with them we livo again for n moment
with them in tho happy past
This memorial day is a festival beautiful
touching and full of love To it are linked asso
ciations exalted and holy mado such by sacri
fices of wealtlv of beauty of love and of happy
homes It tells us of a God given form of gov
ernment of our grand and glorious institutions
It tells ns of ourstruggles and successes and of
our present position near tho pinnacle of earthly
fame It tolls us young Americans of the valor
and firmness of tho men and the peerless hero
ism of the wives and mothers and sisters and
sweethearts of ovor 40 years ago It fills us
with a joyousness an emotional national pride
as done by no other national festival This
years festival differs in some respects from
those of other years the sadnoss caused by the
recollection of tho horrors then fresh in tho
mind haf worn off the shadow of sorrow of tho
then personal loss has been dispelled by the
heroism of our glorious dead irradiated from
every part of state and nation It differs from
more recent years in this that we have recently
emerged victoriously from a new war which
brought again sorrow and weeping to many
hundred happy homes It brings tho departed
heroes of 61 to Co to clasp hands with the de
parted heroes of 9S 1900
It differs also in this that tho rejoicings are
marked by tho absence of anyof that old fraternal
fued It is buried buried under great banks of
flowers and oceans of love Today tho boy in
blue grasps tho hand of the boy in gray and
both say Brother let the past dead bury its
dead Wo aro in tho living present Behold
tho glorious future Wo are one and insepar
able Yes at this present hour the veterans of
the gray are bearing their wreaths and garlands
of flowers to decorate the biers of tho fallen
foe They come with love and tears to beauti
fy the spot where lies the dust of the boy in
blue
We look for a moment to tho past to view the
record of the American soldier The record is
clear we find nothing in it to suppress or pali
ate nothing to condemn We find nothing but
praise It ranks high the highest among the
arnies o history Being a thing of genuine
worth it stands secure on tho merits df its own
achievements It has written its own history
and fought its own battles and fought them
well A grateful country secure in every depart
ment is its reward
We look at the young soldier of today and we
find him a worthy child of his father He has
tho same patriotism the same spirit of self
sacrifice the same endurance the same cheer
ful defiance of death The same cheerfulness
recklessness and patient endurance were shown
at El Cana San Juan Manila and Columpit as
characterized the soldiers oi Grant Sheridan
and Sherman at Gettysburg Fredericksburg
Atlanta and Winchester Tho fathers never for
a moment doubted the justness of their cause
and if the younger one is asked today What
are wo fighting for his answer comes
Theirs not to reason why
Theirs but to do and die
Today in our solemn work and loving thoughts
we revert to a time when the American soldier
was not We go back to the year 490 B C to
the plain of Marathon The army of tho Medes
and Persians in countless numbers had landed
at Marathon and begun the savage work char
acteristic of them The Athenians were almost
in despair Miltiades gathered 10000 Athen
ians andl000 allies and rushed down from the
mountains surrounding tho plain and gave bat
tle to the Persians put them to rout drove
them into the sea and slew 64000 of them When
he counted his own dead he found only 192 A
great mound was raised on the plain of Mara
thon in honor of these 192 heroes For ages
after tho people of Athens and surrounding
country came annually on the anniversary to
decorate the mound and sing praises in honor of
the 192 There came virgins and young men
bearing flowers and garlands vessels of milk
bottles of wine and cupy of honey The flowers
and garlands wereplaced upon the mound tho
milk and wine and honey were poured in loving
libatiqns on these -Then followed the white
robed priests who offered their sacrifices Here
we have aprecedent of noble loving deeds On
that plain of Marathon was born in spirit the
first true republic Thoso people of 2400 years
ago lived closer to us than we think Many of
our noblest works and most illustrious actions
are only the full realization of theirs
Of over 2500000 of men who responded to the
nations call from 61 to 65 63862 were killed in
battle 35727 died of wounds 183257 died of dis
ease 29725 died in prison pens And we ask
why this great sacrifice Was it for sentiment
Was it for sport Was it for hire No it was
for honor that the nation might live Go back
to those days live and move for a momentvin
those stirring times Hear tho call of the head
of the nation and see the response the young
the middle aged tand the old and gray offer
themselves and ask Am I fit to go Can I
not carry a flag The youth tho bone and
sinew -and brain of the land are chosen in
bright uniforms with streaming tri colored ban
ners and stirring music they present a glorious
sight as they march to duty Follow them
through those four long years Bull BunShiloh
Cold Harbor Gettysburg Antibtam Atlanta
the Wilderness and finally at Appomattox
court house also to Andersonville Libby and
Salisbury prisons No pen can describe no
tongue can tell all they suffered and all they
bore during those years Today we look upon
them what are left of them throughout the
land No longer the young and gay but the
aged and gray the feeble and crippled with
their faded but loved uniform and tattered
banners and they speak to us not in words but
in action and say Young men and young wo
men we have done our duty we offered to our
country our youth and our lives if she needed
them Now she is yours we can do but little
more for her love her cherish her defend her as
we have done We will soon be among the past
Preserve this heritage which we give you It
was ours to defend it is yours to love to beau
tify and to perpetuate Of our loved comrades
who are not here who went with us to battle I
but returned not or who after the din and smoke

of the battle were over went down to a soldiers
gravo bo mindful speak of them tenderly love
them as wo have loved them and on each me
morial day assemblo as wo have done today to
pay honor and tribute to thoir memory for thoy
aro the Nations dead
Strew flowers upon their graves Teach jour
children if you have any and if not borrow
some from your neighbor and teach them these
same lessons of love of country and respect for
tho countrys dead
Today we stand before tho world the greatest
the most wonderfully successful of nations a
peoplo of mingled races with a common tonguo
and a unanimity of sentiment a love of our
heroes and institutions greater than that which
over characterized any other people a people
pre eminent for honor virtue purity of inten
tion morality public and private deference
respect piety a deep and lasting religious feel
ing gallant intelligent lovers of all the refin
ing and humanizing arts with a will to become
still more perfect and a sentiment that there is
nothing too good for us to enjoy Whence
America my conntry whence all this From
the patriotism of your sons the wisdom of your
good men and the love of your fair daughtors
The Frenchman de Tocqueville tells us wo
have tho most magnificent dwelling place pre
pared by God for mans abode Lot us beauti
fy it still more by high and noble aims and last
ing institutions What wo have is ours to love
to enjoy and to perpetuate
We too of the younger generation liko the
thinning ranks of the G Ar R are growing
old Let us act in the living present In tho
prime of youth when the nation called them
they answered Here we are ready to do or
dare By their living actions and self sacri
fice they showed what a nation can do Some
of them died on the battlefield and were buried
by the torchs dim flicker at the dead of night
Like Sir John Moore
No useless cofiinenciosed his breast
Nor in sheet or in shroud we enclosed him
But he lay like a warrior taking his rest
With his martial cloak around him
Others of them lived to tell the story of howit
was done When the strife was ended they re
turned to their homes the shattered and bat
tered remnants of their former selves In look
ing for absent ones they felt a thrill of sorrow
but they also felt and knew as only soldiers can
feel and know what the poet says It is pleas
ant and glorious to die for ones country Some
of them are here with us today and some lie in
their silent homes where white winged peace
rules Others turned their energies as they once
turned their arms to tho upbuilding and the
beautifying of the nation They show how a
man who had been a good soldier can and must
be a good citizen They have written their own
epitaph in one great scroll over the whole face
of this fair land He might be the most hum
ble careless of the worlds greatness but he
can be a good citizen and make a happy home
Some found lands and gold seemingly at their
feet Others entered the professions and be
came leaders in their respective callings doc
tors lawyers preachers priests and bishops
Others had the statesmans gif c and entered
the council and legislative halls of the nation
They became leaders of men and moulders of
thought Ay they went on higher and became
one two three four five six soldier presidents
of the United States they helped to save TJ S
Grant R B Hayes Garfield Arthur Harrison
and McKinley
Yes tho G A R man can be and has been the
best of citizens and ve of the younger genera
tion now growing old have much to learn from
him He has practically given the nation into
our keeping and let us be true to our trust Let
us honor him while he lives and when ho dies
when he is finally mustered out and hears the
last bugle call let us come and strew his grave
with flowers and water it with our tears
We look out upon the world today and espec
ially to the countries of Europe to which many
of us think we owe so much and wo seo them
as many of us have seen them veritable armed
camps the din of mimic war in the air the
massing of troops marshaling of batallions
marching and counter marching Soldiers every
where Then we turn to our own America and
say You will never come to such a pass Your
ever citizen is a soldier born But he guards
your peace and liberty At the plow or in the
shop or on the busy marts of trade or in the leg
islative halls he is a soldier of peace If an
enemy offends you he is ready to avenge He
needs no martial training His American man
hood cries out Face to the battle Fight till
the last armed foe expires Such were the
soldiers of 61 to 65 soldiers of peace but aveng
ers of wrong
Old countries can boast of their titles of no
bility of their long lines of kings and royal fam
ilies of their knights and dukes and counts
without number We meet some of them here
occasionally seeking the wealth beauty and love
of our fairest daughters Theif titles tinsel and
ducal crowns give them free range among the
effete rich of our land We have no such titles
conferred by kings or inherited from some dash
ing buccaneer We want none such But we
have an order of nobility far more glorious than
tho longest line of kings an order which no
edict of kings or ukase of czar can establish
nor tho wealth of a Vanderbilt or a Gould can
buy an order before which we bow today the
G A R Every member is of royal blood He
as born of a holy desire and baptised in the
blood and smoke of battle The little bronze
button or eagle or some other emblem tells us
Hero is one of Americas noblemen a man
greater than a king a man who offered his
heart his life on tho altar of his country in her
hour of need Good fortune smiled on him and
allowed him to live till this day to teach us
lessons of patriotism and love When we of a
younger generation meet one of these old vet
erans we should look upon him as the highest
type of nobility and salute him as a king
But should we today pass over in silence tho
woman of that period the daughters of Amer
ica in that great struggle Youmy friendsknow
what they suffered and did You saw it and
felt it and you are the better for it today
Many are departed gone from the busy
gaiivaui iJlrw
moil of this life Thoy have left a name and a
faint- enshrined in the hearts of the ieople
One of the leading women of tho country writes
Tho great uprising among men who ignored
party and politics and forgot sect and trndo
was paralled by a similar uprising among wo
men Wo can understand how men fired by
enthusiasm and tho justness of their cause and
inspired by martial mime can march to battle
rush up to tho cannons month to be mowed
down by flro and iron rain and leadon hail like
grain in the harvest fiold But consider tho
women who sent their husbands and sons and
brothors and lovers to tho almost fatal chance
of battlo well knowing that perhaps thoy would
never return bee tltem bidding tnem n last
farewell giving them a parting kiss wishing
them God speed their own hearts achingburn
ing well nigh breaking This culls forth a
heroism which men cannot show a heroism
peculiar to women alone You know full well
how they watched and worked and prayed at
home for their absent loved ones It has well
beon said The fetters of casto and conven
tionalism dropped at their feet and side by side
worked Patrician and Plobian Protestant and
Catholic for loved ones in battlo I will not
attempt to pay them a fitting tribute I need
but to quote the words of tho immortal Lincoln
when he said I am not accustomed to the
lunguago of eulogy neither have I studied tho
art of paying compliments to women but I
must say that if all that has been said by poets
and orators since tho creation of tho world in
praise of women was applied to tho women of
America it would not do them justice for their
conduct during tho war God bless tho women
of America Yes my veteran friends you know
what they did for you at home in hospital and
battlefield how they prajed for you how thoy
bound up your gaping wounds nnd cooled your
fevered brow and nursed jou back to life Tho
ladies of tUo Red Cross tho Sisters of Charity
and Sisters of Mercy were on tho battlefield and
in hospital offering kind ministrations angels
of peace and joy
Tho proudest boast of a Roman matron was
that she could bear noble sons for war It is re
lated that an illustrious Campanian lady one
day called upon tho widowed mother of the two
Gracchi those two illustrious brothers who left
their names on the scroll of ancient Roman his
tory and after displaying her jewels and dia
monds asked tho widow to show hers The il
lustrious mother changed the conversation for
a time till her boys came from their lessons
Then taking them by tho hand she said- These
are my jewels and my ornaments Such the
noWe mothers and such the noble sons we need
today Wo need not the sons for war but we
need them to guide in peace this ship of state
We as a nation have not yet reached the pin
hacle of fame and the limit of greatness We do
not jot know our resources We are still in the I
experimental stage of our ability It would
seem that the eye of no seer hath beheld and
the voice of no prophet hath told what is in
store for us Whatever it may be will be of our
own making If tho writer of future ages is to
give us the place of silent tenants on the pages
of history we will havo only ourselves to blame
Wo are today in a transient period pregnant
with wonderful things We must bo wary We
must act wisely Wo must choose truo and tried
leaders and then support them Young heads
and deft hands need guiding We can learn
much from the experience of the past Wo
must take counsel from older ones
When wo go back forty three years to the
date of the beginning of our great civil strife
and look for tho cause we arc told by some that
it was a struggle for the supremacy of political
opinions But no it was not such It was a
struggle to correct tho political social and
moral status of several millions of human be
ings then held in bondage Wo have today ques
tions moral social and political questions as
important as was the old question of slavery
Questions which if not settled according to the
rule of justice and by wise and honest and pa
triotic heads will prove more disastrous to our
great nation than would have proved the tri
umph of slavery
In a republican rorm of government political
parties are necessary They are as necessary to
the life of a republic as air is to tho life of man
If there were but one party a few cunning un
scrupulous and designing politicians would soon
control that party and establish a political aris
tocracy and then strangle the republic and un
furl the banner of despotism Political parties
watch one another They see the danger on
the distant political horizon They warn the
people If a political mountebank arise with a
political panacea for all political ills they crush
him If any great party advocate dangerous
doctrines or enact dangerous laws or attempts
to pursue a policy contrary to the letter and
rule of the written constitution the other party
may lead ics hosts to victory Thus we must all
be politicians Every citizen must be a sentinel
in tho national watch tower Thus dangers may
be foreseen and averted Thus the republic will
be preserved It matters not to which of the
great political parties we belong providing wo
are honest in our convictions noble in our aims
and true to the principles of justice and right
ineamerent party piatiorms are only expres
sions of different modes of arriving at the same
end the common good of the nation
If we be not of the dominant party today wo
may be tomorrow If wo cannot actually shape
the policy of the nation we can give warning
when we see danger we can give advice though
wo receive no thanks Patriotism love of
country does not consist in holding an office or
pocketing the emoluments or spoils thereof
The honest poor man who concientiously otes
for what he thinks is right and just and honest
is infinitely to be preferred to the political shys
ter who seeks office for what there is in it We
are now as a nation at a period vvhich might bo
called full young manhood For 116 years we
have existed as a republic But in that short
time we have given an example for honor jus
tice truth and right for intellectual moral
national and commercial greatness such as no
other nation under the sun has ever given
We are but an hour on the dial plate of time
compared with some other nations bnt on the
dial plate of humanity and humanitys causes
and achievements we have passed around and
aro in a good lead of any other nation We have
worked and builded according to our old rules
and plans But now we are reaching out boldly
on now lines Wo havo new financial policies
We are building up great industrial consolida
tions We are making unheard of commercial
expansion and new and experimental military
extensions These are bold steps They may
succeed and we sincerely hope they will and
if they do so much more honor to their promot
ers and so much more glory to our nation
they fail do not fear for one moment that our
government will go down that our republic
will be wiped out She may suffer a little
shock but there are too many noble and patrio
tic men of all parties to rush to her rescue and
save her We have today too many men like
the father of his country George Washington
like Thomas Jefferson and Abraham Lincoln
and other great builders of this nation to allow
her to fail and go down to ruin
I now speak to you young America to you
who were too young to go to war 40 years ago
and to you who were not born then and say to
you if you cannot be soldiers of war yon can be
soldiers of peace yes you can bo soldiers of in
dustry soldiers of commerce soldiers of intel
lectual pursuits soldiers building up embel
lishing strengthening and beautifying material
ly socially and morally this great nation
If you cannot offer your lives and blood on the
altar of freedom because your country does not

need such a sacrifice you can offer your

of heart your gifts of intellect on the altar of
your country and make her what your fathers
saw only in a dream the greatest nation on the
earth But not of the greatness of shining brass
and polished steel and champing steeds and a
million armed warriors but great in the arts of
peace great in tho love of manhoods rights
great in tho love and charm of happy homes
great in commerce great in manufactures great
in intellectual pursuits great in noblo men and
true and loving women
The countrj today is happy and prosperous
We want no more war we want white winged
peace to reign amongst us Wo all as citizens
have duties important duties and obligations
to perform In performing these duties wo must
make great self sacrices we must abovo all
things be liberal It matters not to what section
wo belong or with what party wo affiliate or
to what creed Protestant or Catholic we must
work as one family for tho common good of the
country We must crush out bigotry and that
narrow and selfish way of thinking wherever we
find them Bigotry is the index I might say the
child of ignorance If we were better informed
if we knew a little more of what we should
know we could then respect the belief and feel
ings of others We must not look with distrust
upon the man who does not vote as we do We
must crush out that intollerant spirit which we
find in some which makes them believe that to
love God they must hate
those who do not wor
ship at the same altar with them In heaven
there will be no distinction Knowing and be
lievingfirmly relying on all that my church
teaches I can assure you that if I ever enter
heaven I expect to meet some good Catholics
and some who are now good non Catholics but
they must all be good having made thefbest
use of the talents which God gave them having
sought out truth and found it embraced it Yes
I expect to find the very good from all parts of
the world walking hand in hand down the pearly
streets of the new Jerusalem
Todaythis memorial day we look in a special
manner to the old soldier class and we receive
anew inspiration to go forth and do as well
They have acted their part nobly they have
done well ther have builded better than they
knew
Young America Great responsibilities are
weighing on j our shoulders Be men like j our
fathers Be as good as the grizzled veterans
who have given you jour heritage Be wise in
counsel fearless in words and if needs be pa

of another age will come and stand before jour
mausoleum or gaze upon jour marble shaft or
kneel at your lone and unmarked grave and
seek inspiration to gnide them in the hour nf
If need
Today in our loving thoughts let us remom
ber that the grave of a soldier does not contain
common dust It is something nobler it is
something sacred it is something to be treasnr
ed in the national urn It is the dust of a hero
Some of it is here some of it at Gettysburg
some enriching the southern swamps Ay some
of it in every city and town of this great union
Rest on embalmed and sainted dead
uear as tue uiooa je gave
No impious footsfep here shall tread
The herbage of your grave
Nor shall your glory be forgot
While fame her record keeps
Or honor points to hallowed spot
Where valor proudly sleeps
Yon marble minstrels stone
In deathless eonp shall tell
When many a vanished year hath flown
The story how j e fell
Nor wrecks nor change nor winters blight
Nor times remorseless doom
