Q. A. R Observance of Memorial Day. National Headquarters G. A. R , Milwaukee, Wl3 , March 1, 1893. General Orders, / No. 7. J I. The Grand Army of the Republic originated, and one of its highest prerogatives is to perpetuate the prop er observance of Memorial Day. Ancient civilization instituted games and costly pageants iu commemoration of those who fell in defense of the Country. More recently monuments have been erected in honor of such; but how vastly more tender and appropriate is our modern way of strewing the graves of our Nation’s defenders annually by the hands of loving women and innocent children, with the first Howers of spring, and planting ou the low green mound of each the Hag of our Nation, under the folds of which they “Nobly fighting, fell!” 11. Keeping in mind that Memorial Day and its ceremonies are to be conducted under the direction of the Grand Army of the Republic, Department Commanders are requested to call the attention of Post Commanders to the propriety of making early preparations for May 30, 1893. 111. It is especially appropriate and desirable that the Womans Relief Corps, Sons of Veterans, and Children of the schools should be active participants on Memorial Day and the Sunday services precediug it. I IV. While the recent desecration of ■Soldiers’ graves in some localities of

« Hlthern Indiana and Illinois compells .XU Heritage oi inis gio.avus xnm-ivu /Web they would sooner betray than defend, let us and all good citizens, by a general attendance upon the solemn services of Memorial Day, demonstrate that the great heart of the American people is in full sympathy with those who gave their lives for Nationality and freedom. V. Let all flags hoisted on Memorial Day be at half mast as directed by resolution of the National Encampment June 4tb, 1878. By command of A. G. Weissert, Commander in-Chief. E. B. GBAY, Adjutant General.
