Then they returned to their hall at Parkersburg1 and decorated the graves of the unknown, after which we had a declamation by Miss Mollie Harrison, entitled, "The Unknown Grave," which brought tears to the eyes of the old soldier that stood around. They then ad-
journed until 1 o'clock, having, during the noon hour, one of the linest dinners that this community could command.
