MEMORIAL DAY
IN HONESDALE
(Continued from page 4.)
Andrew Thompson's Address.
Mr. Chairman, Members of the
Grand Army of the Republic
and the Ladles' Circle, .Mem
bers of Company E, and Ladles
and Gentlemen:
Some of the events of Thursday,
April ISth, 1SC1, are fixed In my
mind, although 48 years have pass
ed away since they occurred.
The always welcome vacation had
arrived to the boarding school boy.
With bright anticipations of meet
ing parents and others of the home
circle, besides exemption for a short
time from study and the dally
routine of school life, 1 started on
the morning of that day from
Flushing, L. I., to pass through New
York City on the way to my Orange
county home. That city was full of
excited people; Hags were flying
from the buildings which lined
Broadway and the downtown streets,
and men in uniforms were rushing
hither and thither. There were no
"sky scrapers" in those days. The
height of the buildings at that time
did not exceed live or six stories,
and the most prominent structures
on lower Broadway were the Stewart
building at Chambers street, the
Astor House, and the City Hall, with
its park of trees and grass, which
Included the site of the present
Postofllce building. The churches
of Trinity. St. Paul, and St. .lohn
were the prominent ecclesiastical
buildings, and their spires seemed
to tower up into the sky to a per
son when crossing the Cortlandt
street ferry from .lersey City. Why
all this unusual excitement, one
might ask? The answer was readi
ly given. The flag of our country
had been llred ou live days before,
and the United States garrison of
Fort Sumter in Charleston Harbor
had been compelled to capitulate to
the southern forces. Washington,
the capital of our nation. ' was
threatened by Virginia troops, ofti
cered by men who had hastily left
the United States army without even
waiting for their resignations to be
accepted by the proper authorities.
On the l.'.tli of April. President
Lincoln issued a call for 7.",000
volunteers.
The sleeping Samson of the North
had been aroused by the insult to the !
nation's Hag at Fort Sumter.
John A. Andrew, the War (lover
nor of Massachusetts, had for sov
erai weens loreseen. mu imp.-. ...
conflict, and ho quietly organized and
,. ... . i i:
equipped a few regiments of militia
in view of possible emergencies.
The descendants of the heroes of
Concord and Lexington were ready
to respond to the cry of their coun
try for help in 1SG1.
The day after the President's call,
the Sixth Massachusetts regiment
assembled on Boston Common, nnd
during the evening of the 17th start
ed from Iloston, and reached New
rk the morning of the 18th.
As this regiment passed down
Bro.icway and Cortlandt street to
tne Jersey City ferry, it received an
ovation long to be remembered.
The vast crowds, the loved flag
in every window, tho cheering the
military display, all contributed to
make an ineffaceable picture in my
memory.
The North was scarcely prepared
to regard the city of Baltimore as
the outpost of the Army of Rebel
lion, and yet the next day, the Sixth
Massachusetts, which 1 had seen as
they marched down Broadway, was
mobbed In Baltimore, as the rail
road cars, in which they were travel
ling, were being drawn through the
streets of that city from the Wil
mington to the Washington station.
During several days after this,
communication from the North to
Washington through Baltimore was
interrupted by the burning of rail
road bridges and tearing up the
tracks. These acts of violence only
inflamed the war spirit of the
North. Influential papers, which
before had upheld the South and its
demands, now spoke for a vigorous
prosecution of war. Warlike
speeches in assemblages and
churches; tenders of troops from
States and municipalities; offers of
money; military proclamations;
cities and towns radiant with bunt
ing; camps or drilling grounds in or
near almost every town; the making
of bandages and lint by the women;
all this showed how the energies of
a people could be turned from peace
ful pursuits to the prosecution of
war.
How much more forcibly than I
can relate, the members of the
Grand Army of the Republic, who
are with us to-day, recall the events
of those days when they gave up
business and positions of profit, and
left so many sorrowing hearts in
their homes, and went to tho front
at the call of duty when their coun
try needed their services on the
battlefield
When I returned to school, after
the vacation was ended, a great
change had taken place. Some of
the older boys and one teacher had
enlisted In tho Union Army, and
nine from tho southern states did
not come back. Two or three of the
latter were prominent in athletics. I
recall their faces and forms after
these many years. They retain their
boyish looks. I have grown old, and
my hair Is whitened; but they are
the same to me as when we had the
last game of wicket and base ball on
sc ,eir 0irt Flushlne plnv-ground
and we parted in April, 18C1, never
to meet since that time. Even our
ordinary athletic games were to some
extent changed to a military train
ing. A drill master, who was a West
Point graduate, came out frequently
from New York and taught us mili
tary evolutions and the manual of
arms, and was satisfied with nothing
less than West Point discipline ana
efficiency.
With the opening of the montu oi
May. 1SG1. all thought of compromise
and peace had passed away, and the
grim spectre of war between tue two
sections of our country appeared In
all its hideousness.
The North felt its uupreparedness
for this struggle. The regulnr army
was very small, and many of the
prominent officers In It, who were
southern born, had already gone Into
the army of the rebellion. Such
leaders as Grant, Sherman, Sheridan,
Thomas, Farragut, and many others,
were occupying subordinate positions
at that time, and were unknown to
the country.
Our reliance, humanly speaking,
for leadership, was upon dear old
General Scott, the hero of two wars,
who remained true and loyal while
S3 many officers were faithless.
In the church of St. Thomas, in the
city of Strassburg, on the Rhine,
there is a magnificent monument in
marble to Marshal Saxe, one of the
great military leaders of France In
the 18th century. The Marshal is in
the act of descending Into the tomb
opened for his reception by Death,
wlillc a beautiful female figure rep
resenting France strives to detain
him.
As France felt in regard to her
leader, so we of the North would have
hindered the inroads of time and en
deavored to impart youthful vigor to
our veteran. The Chairman of the
Committee appointed by the Virginia
convention had waited upon General
Scott and tendered to him, being a na
tive of that state, the command of the
forces of Virginia in the coming
struggle.
Listen to his reply, and 1 wisli that
it might be remembered by every
American. These are his words: "1
hae served my country under the
Hag of the Union for more than fifty
ears. and as long as God permits me
to lhe. I will defend that flag with
my sword, even if my own native
state assails it." These words were
'put into practice not alone by Gouer
lal Scott, hut by General Thomas.
(Commodores Farragut and Winslow.
land thousands of others of southern
.birth, many of whom in obscurity did
what they could to light for and aid
!the Union cause. The love of country
and sturdy conviction of duty of these
I men stand out in bold relief when
contrasted with the narrow scction-
,nliaul of th(J u,es ,,ohnsonSi .jacksons.
, , n,i,,.
How much our beloved President,
Abraham Lincoln, was sustained in
these trying days by the loyalty and
practical assistance of the War Gov
ernors of the Northern states! You
doubtless recall the names of some
of them as John A. Andrew, William
A. Buckingham, Edwin 1). Morgan.
Andrew G. Curtin. Oliver P. Morton,
and ninny others. One of these men
lias recently passed away, on April
2 8th. I refer to Frederick Holbrook,
the Governor of Vermont between
1S61 and 1SG3. He at one time stir
red Vermont by these words: "Let no
young man capable of bearing arms
in the defence of his country linger at
,thh. ,mportnnt Let tne
President feel tho strengthening in
fluence of our prompt and hearty re
sponse to his call. Let Vermont be
one of the first states to respond with
her quota." Of this Governor, Presi
dent Lincoln said: "There's Governor
Holbrook buried up in Vermont's
snows six months of the year, yet I
would give more for his opinion than
those of all the politicians in Wash
ington." It is unnecessary at this time to go
over the many incidents comprised in
those four years of victory and de
feat, hope and fear, the alternation of
confidence and their distrust in the
ability of some of our Generals.
When the glad news of final victory
reached us in April, 1SC5, and the
knowledge that peace would once
more prevail in our land, It made
those dnys stand out in striking con
trast with the dark ones of April,
1SC1.
Members of the Grand Army of the
Republic: These are the events that
have led up to the setting apart of
this day as a memorial to your com
rades who have either fallen in battle
or have since passed away. How
greatly broken are your ranks in
comparison with the first years
when you met and decorated the
graves of those who had already
gone on before into eternity! You
represent those who are left of the
Old Guard." As you look back
to the years of conflict, do you re
gret the decision that you then
made to give up all for your coun
try, nnd Its preservation?
I count it a privilege to address
you personally on this Memorial
Day, for the time is not far distant
when the speakers on this anniver
sary will have for hearers only
those to whom the stirring scenes
of the Civil War will be merelv a
part of our National history.
Three years ago I spent a day
in Columbia, the capital city of the
State of South Carolina. I was
Interested in looking over the large
cotton mills, and other evidences
that showed the Industrial growth
of the "New South." While pass
ing through tho rotunda of the
State Capitol, I was confronted by
a largo white marble slab set into
the wall, and upon It was carved
the Act of Secession of the State of
South Carolina from the Union of
1f1. tneether with the names of
the delegates -who had voted for it. I
As I read the words, it. seemed as
If the Influence of that Act was
casting a dark shadow upon a mil
lion graves of men who wore both
the "blue and the gray," and who
had fallen in that awful struggle,
besides upon desolate homes and
crushed hearts.
In about n month from that ,
time, I stood in the rotunda of the
beautiful Capitol of the State of
Iowa at Des Moines. In the al-
coves around tins rotunda are
grouped nearly two hundred United
States flags and regimental " col-
ors, which were carried by the I
brave Iowa soldiers through the !
various battles that were fought in
order to nullify that Act of Seces-1
slon.
In one Capitol, the marble speaks
for disunion in the other, the tat- 1
tered flags remind us of the loyalty. !
heroism, and sacrifices of the
"boys in blue," who in the words of '
our immortal Lincoln, "gave the !
last full measure of devotion, and
resolved that government of the
people, by the people, and for
people, should not perish from
earth."

May 28. Yesterday afternoon Gover
nor Stuart announced the appointment
of Captain J. C. Delnney as Factory In
spector for another term of four years.
His appointment, to be good for that
length of time, will have to be confirmed
by the Senate of 1911, but in any event
it holds to the end of the next session of
the Senate, nnd will undoubtedly be
confirmed by that body. Northeastern
Pennsylvania has a more than passing
interest in Captain Delnney, for he hails
from the neighboring county of Lacka
wanna, and speaks familiarly of persons
and places in old Wayne, having seen
service in our county. He has an en
viable record as asoldier in the War of
the Rebellion, has a Medal of Honor,
and was one of the youngest, if not
the youngest, men in the service, to at
tain the rank of Captain. As Factory
Inspector he has honestly endeavored to
Serve the State with fidelity and follow
the lines of duty laid down in the law.
The Captain is popular about the Hill,

te ' ,or.v '"essages sent to him to-dav from
' his numerous friends all over the State.
I At the same time that Captain De
laney was reappointed, the Governor an-
I nounced the appointment of Joseph W.
Hunter as State Highway Commissioner
and has made a creditable showing tin
uer somewnai uiscnurngmg conditions
He will be able to show much better re
suits during the next few vears. A hot
lias not lost confidence in the honest ef
forts of his appointees to do their best.
There seems to be a slight misunder
standing regarding the appropriation
made to the Wayne County Hospital As
sociation, judging from published re
ports. The amount appropriated by the
Legislature of 1907, $10,000, which was
ture nppropiiatcd $-",000 for the use of
the Association, subject to the same pro-
vatv charities and hospitals will fare less
well in the future than they have in the'
past. There is a general feeling that
the State is more generous than just in
this direction, and some influential news-
money for his county than he does to
getting good laws upon the statute
books. The situation at Honesdale
promises well and no dilliculty should
be experienced in raising $10,000, to add
to the $T),0tX) given by the State.
The political situation is somewhat
complex at present. It seems to have

Wealthy Hunter's Skeleton In Marsh.
Chicago. The finding of the akele -
ton of a man, who, from the nature of
his wearing apparel, was a wealthy
hunter In a soggy marsh near Kanka-
"......- ...
a mystery. Of tho clothing which tho
man wore only a pair of alligator
hunting boots of expensive make re
mains intact. The rest has been fad
ed or destroyed by long exposure to
the elements. Besides the boots, a
gold watch and a brass metal chain,
a Woodman's pin, and a small com
pass watchcharm wero found.
Er!y Telescopes.
It appears, according to facta col
lected by Mr. Arthur Meo, that
Thomas Harriot, the English astron
omer, born in 15G0, mado telescopes
perhaps contemporaneous with the
the first Instruments of Galileo. Tho
very first telescopo seems to hevo
been made In Holland in 1608. The
next year Galileo heard of tho discov
ery, and after writing for Information,
began hla own experiments. In 'he
same, year Harriot had one or two of
the Dutch telescopes sent to him, and
immediately began Improvements on
his own account. It appears that he
made a considerable number, and Mr.
Mce suggests that some may yet be
found In somo of the older colleges,
or mansions, In England. It Is said
that Harriot's last and best telescopo
was nearly twice as powerful as the
best made by Galileo. Long before,
Harriot had been in Virginia, and
there employed, In surveying, a "per
spective glass." It would be very In
to estlng to know just what his per
SDcctlve glass was.
How Does the Gipsy-Moth Spread?
Heretofore, says Dr. L. O. Howard,
It ha3 been supposed that the glsy
moth was distributed only by caterpil
lars carried by moving objects, such
ns carriages. The moths cannot fly,
nnd the part taken by birds and winds
in distributing them or the caterpil
lars he regards as problematical. Yet
recently Isolated colonies of these
moths have beon found in the woods
far from roads and paths, and the
question arises, "How did they get
there?" Doctor Howard requests In
formation and suggestions on this
point.
