0A Dirthday Pnrty.
A birthday party was given at
the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. W.
Davison 'ruesdav night by the
members of the ljregbytcrian con-
greation. 'l'he occasion was in
honor of three members of John
Baileys family viz. J. W. Davi-
son , Mrs. S. J. Davison and Mrs.
Elizabeth Connaly of Kansas
Citv. Mr. and Mrs , Connaly arc
here visiting with Mrs. Connaly's
parents.
'l'he party was a surprise on
Mr. Davidson who is choir leader
of the church. After the oldcr
people had assembled the younger
pcople came in a body. l efresh-
ments wcre provided for the
oc asion and jolly good 'time \ as
' all. It mul-
enJo'ed by was near -
night before the merry compan ) '
departed.
Sunday School Tcachera Cia. . .
At the annual convention of
the County Sunday school association -
sociation held in this city in
June it was decidcd to organize
Sunday School 'l'eacher's classes ,
where practical , with the view of
holding meetings o ce a week to
study the lesson.
Hev. J. R. Woods , of Mason
City , was elected superintendent
and organizer of the work.
lIe hcld a meeting in the U.
I B. church , of this city , last
'rhursday night to inaugerate
the : work here. 'l'hc superintendents -
tendents and teachers of the
several schools were rcquested to
attend with the view of effecting
the organization. A number
responded to the call.
After giving a practical
demonstration of the plans proposed -
posed by teaching the lesson the
question of organization was
_ discusscd.
'rhe question being decided
unanimously in favor of organization -
\ zation , H. Lomax was elected
_ as lcader and D. 1\1. Amsberry

couraJc. 'I'he 24th Michigan in
which he cnlisted was one of six I
reJilllents that composed a :
brigade that had , 011 Scpt. , t.Hh , ;
1862 , carried South Mountain
pass in a valorous charge and
held it like an iron wall till fresh
troops arrived. li'or this act it
receIved from Gcncral McClellan
the titlc of the "Iron llrigade. "
A brigade that won enduring
fame in every battle-field of note
in which the Army of the
Potomac was engaged , from
Bull Run to Appomattox and
which was found when the war
cksed to have sustained , in
proportion to its numbers , greater
losses than any other. It was
composcd of thc Second , Sixth
and Scventh Wisconsin , the
Nineteenth Indiana and the
'l'wenty-Fourth Michigan regi-
meuts. 'I'his brigade held relatively -
tively the same position to our
army for valor , constancy and
cndurancc that Cromwell's
, Ironsides -
sides regiment , Cacsars Tenth
T4cgion , the old Guard of Napoleon -
poleon , and the Light Brigade
at Balaklava did to their respective -
spective armies and sustained a
greater per ccnt of loss than did
either of them. IIistor ) ' says
of it.
"This hrignde hy Its inlrcpldit ) , al
Gainsville in P pc's cnmpnign snvell its
division from utter rout IIIHI ruin mill lo
it llIust he crcdited the dlief burden of
lhe Confedcrate nssllult nt Gettyshur ,
Its rccord in this hattle is n ccntral ) oint
in wnr histories. Its dress wns tln\Clue ,
being dark colorcd and tull hlnck hnts
Romcwhat 1)11 shaped with hroall hrims ,
h ) ' which the ) ' were nlwlIYs recognized
hy friellfl mill foe. At Gninsville nnd
SecOlHl Hulls Run this hrignde lost 81)4
uut of 2,000 engaged and at Gettysburg
it lost 1 I 153 out 188a engaged or III
per cen t. "
You may be better able to form
some idea of this awful loss when
I tell you that thc Light Brigade
immortalizcd in song and 5torv
for its famous charge at Balakav
lost but 37 per cent while the
grcatest loss sustained by any
regimcnt in the l ranco-Prussian
war was 49 per cent or 11 per
cent less then the Iron Brigade
at G ttysburg.
l ecurring to the part it bore
on that imlI1 ortal field where
"The lnttercII standards of the South
Were shriveled at the cnnnotls mouth
And nIl her hopcs left desolnte. "
A public war Journal of those
days said :
"It was to the Iron Brignde more thnn
any other thal the nntion owes its snlvu-
tion nt Gettysburg , mill we say not more
thnn historr wilt verify , thnt of all thc
heroic regunents that fought there , the
Twcntv-Fourth 1\Iichl1an slll1H1s pre-
eminc 1t for its herOIsm and valor.
Against the overwhelming hordes of the
enemy it stood for hours a wnll of granite
which beat hnck , agnin anll again , the
resolute and hamcd foe. "
It is a remarkable coincidence
that the Iron Brigade of the
Northern , and Pettigrew's Brigade -
gade of the Southern armies that
were opposed to each other in
this battle sustained the reatest
loss in proportion to thclr number -
ber of an ) ' engagcd.
"Anll whnt n withering tenipeflt blew
Agllinst tht ; front of Pettigrew ,
A Knnsian wind that scorchell mHI singed
Like lhe infernal Oames thnt fringed
The British squnres at Waterloo.
In vain the 'l'ennesean set
His brenst aJ1ninst the bnyonet ,
In vnin Virgl11ia charged and ragcll
A tigress in her wrath tlncaged.
Till all the hilt was red mul wet.
1'or ! thrce days the contending
hosts strug-gled , charged and
fought until of both armies 40-
240 lay dead and wounded on this
historic field and North and South
"Babes were crying.
And wives were sighing ,
J\llIl slrong men watched nnd wept. "
For the statistician and generally -
ally accepted authorit ) ' for losses
sustained 1&1 the civil war says ,
, of four hundred regiment : . enl -
l gaged at Gettysburg "The mel.
ancholy honor of sustaining the
greatest loss belongs to the 24tl1
Michigan. " Five of its colm
bearers were instant1) ' 1 i11ed ,
three were mortally wounded and
two othcrs were wounded that
su bsrquen tly recovered. Out of
4 ! ) ( ) men of this regiment engaged
- at the close of the fight but 9
remained , a loss of 80 per cent.
By another strange coincidence
the rcgiment opposed to thi
particular one was thc ' ! 'wenty.
Sixth North Caroline and its per
cen t of loss was the largest of
any in the Confederate army.
Out of 800 men enga cd but I ) :
remained , its loss bemg 88 pel

his first baptislI1 of lire at

Among the II1cmbcn ; of this
post he alone enjoycd the honor
of having helonged to the Iron
Brigadc , and while he fra a
pardonable pride in its splendid
achievcments which form a part
of the brightest chapter in the
military annals of thlS republic ,
) 'et he seldom alluded to it and
then with a modcsty that was a
conspicuous trait in his ch aracter.
What more can I say to you who
knew him , who have observed
that the same qualities that dis-
tinguishcd him in youth rcmained
with him throngh life , in that
he did not hcsitate hi the performance -
formance of an ) ' act that his
I conscicnce approved and duty

Comrades , ma ' we profit by
the lessons of this hour. Day
by day our raukS ! are becoming
thinner and thinncr. During thc
past year forty thousand 'boys
who wor the blue have answered
"Here" to the roll call of the
Master , and it will not , it cannot -
not be long until around the open
grave of the last survivor of this
po t weeping friends will perform -
form the last sad rites and with
the solomu bcnediction "Earth
to earth , dust to dust , ashes to
asheg" we will ha\'c done- with
the scenes of this life and pitched
forevermore our tents upou the
eternal morning. Thesc occasions -
ions then would be attended with
sadness and incxpressable sorrow
but for the hope that animates
and I trust inspires all. that
he'ond the grave is a glorious
immortalitv , where battles end ,
where warfare and fierce conflicts -
flicts arcunknown : , and all tears
shall be wiped from our cyes by
the very God of Peace himself.
Thcn let us labor for the souls
advancc , and the rest and peace
that may be ours , ere the ocean
that laves our feet shall bear us
hence upon. the swift receding
waters of the outgoing tide.
