Great Success in factoring
Depends Upon
Three Veterans cf Civil War
At the celebration of Memorial day
in Greenwood there was demonstrat
ed the undeniable fact that with
each succeeding year there are few
er of the boys who wore the blue in
the stressful times of '61 to '65. At
the celebration there were present
but three of the old veterans who
so valliantly struggled in the war
which, as Abraham Lincoln said, was
a test as to whether this nation or
any other nation so constructed and
do dedicated, could long stand. Those
present were all from Lincoln, al
though they formerly belonged to the
G. A. R. post here, they being J. B
Carnes, Ed Coleman and Thomas
Crouch. There is another who was
not able to attend the services, al
though he was visiting here, but was
not strong enough due to the in
lirmitics of old age, to be present

Memorial Day Observed
The flay when we remember those
of all wars who have fought for their
country, was observed in Greenwood
lat week with appropriate services
including the decoration of tlie graves
of all heroic dead who slumber in the
local cemetery. The nation with its
busy everyday life is prone to forget
the sacrifices that have been made for
humanity by these valliant men, but
one day of each year, our thoughts
are directed back to them and as we
pay them tribute we cannot help but
think of the inspiration that inspired
them to service and to resolve that we
too shall ever carry on to keep our
nation at the pinacle it now occupies
amors: the empires of the world. The
sentiment of Decoration day is most
touching and never fails to awaken
anew love of country and that grand
old flag that has weathered every
storm and now flows triumphantly
over the land of the free and the
home of the brave.
