ON MEMORIAL DAY.

Found high on the hill, in the valley, And dot linn the gredn-meadowed plain, Today let ue eolemnly rally To deck tlie fair graves of the slain. While duty land valor men cherish, While devotion Is dear to the ra< e, In. no age shall their memory perish; In our hearts It must hold first place. Bring garlands, twine wreaths and fair flowers, \ Bring the flag that they died to ups hold; In the splendor of May be It ours To see their great story retold. For the freedom which Washington founded, The law that blends justice with peace. Through them won a future unbounded. And a triumph that cannot decrease.
