Now and again, came forth clarion voices of commaud Voieus silent since wo heard them on the bclcagurcd Hue of Petersburg, or in the bloody augle of Spottsylvania voices which startled the doting memory, and make the old heart leap, if but for one throb, with the pulse of a long dead youth. 1 siw and heard them all. Just, as we knew them. Your brothers and ours. Your old generals ami ours. No longer arrayed in opposing ranks, but side by side, as brethren.
