French Quinn, u former militia captain, presided over tho meeting as chairman. His apt introductions added appreciably to the effectiveness of the meeting.

Probably the most excitement was caused when the life and drum corps marched into the court room by that "thin blue line" of veterans of the Civil war, yet ready und willing to offer their all in defense of the tiag. Beuutiful in its simplicity, ulmost holy in its devotion, absolutely solemn in its genuineness and thoughtbent. martial in bearing, this thin blue line marched steadily forward, amid the cheers and manifestation Os appreciation on the part of later generations. They, it appeared, with that devotion of the American who once has asserted his birthright, felt willing and eager to do so again.'
