GOVERNOR TENER HONESDALE (Continued from tho National-Guard, to wit, the first Captain of this Company, tho man who helped stamp it and tho regi ment. I refer to George F. Bentley. Everyone of the. men who succeeded him have held trurj to tho standard ho set. " While or course tne title is properly in tho Commonwealth, tho care of it to a largo extent Is left to tho good people of this borough. " I could only wish for you and this Company that as often as the sun shall rise over majestic Irving Cliff and kiss this law-abiding bor ough, or at least until tho day ar rives when the swords shall be turn ed Into plough-shares and the spears Into prunlng-hooks,' until that day Company E will always respond as promptly to the call of duty as she has in tho past, and that sho bo en titled to the confidence and esteem of this community and this Common wealth." (Applause.) Said Homer Greene in presenting Major General C. Bow Dougherty to tho audienco: " One of the best friends we have had in our work of building this arm ory, a prominent member of the State Armory Board and division com mander of the National Guard of Pennsylvania, is Major General C. B. Dougnerty of Wilkes-Barre, who will turn over tho armory to tho custody of Company E. HOMER Formerly of Company "E," And nn T General Dougherty's Speech. " Governor Tener, Mr. Chairman. Ladies and Gentlemen. Officers and members of Company E, Thirteenth Regiment: " If this day is a day of gratitude to the citizens of Honesdale in the erection and completion and dedica tion of this beautiful building dedi cated to the furtherance and tho help in the instruction of tho citizen sold iery of this county, I can say that it Is no less gratifying to tho mem bers of the State Armory Board and especially to Col. Watres and my self, the committee of the Third Bri gade of the State Armory Board who were just as anxious to lend a help ing hand and locate an Armory in Honesdale as tho community and Company E were anxious to have it. It becomes my duty in the as signment as a membor of tho State Armory Board to turn over to Cap tain Kelley the custody of this State building. And therefore, Captain Kelley, it is one of the pleasures of my career as a member of the Board to bestow on you and your worthy Company the custody of this build ing. " I trust. Sir, knowing you as I do. that you will keen it in the same manner that the predecessors from High Private Homer Greene up to all tho ranks. Including the memory of Captain Bentley, and Captain, now Judge Wilson and dear old Captain Whitney have (Great applause) kept loyal the citizen soldiery .of North eastern Pennsylvania. " Captain Rolley, this is Hones dale's Citadel of Peace, where you are to Instruct the mon under your command in the art of war. Keep In mind tho Injunction of that great American, the Father of his country, who said, 'In time of Peace prepare for War.' "None know when that day shall come, when this nation shall require men of courage and patriotism to go forth as these men (indicating the veterans of Captain James Ham Post, No. 298, who occupied front seats at the dedication exercises) went forth In tho great struggle of Cl-'CS. And I know that in that hour will come the satisfaction and prido that the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania thought so much of your Company that It has put this splendid building, which I now turn over to your custody and keeping by that officer who deserves the lasting gratitude of the community." (Great Applause). Mr. Green announced that tho re sponse for Company E would bo made by that officer who deserves tho last ing gratitude of tho people of this community for fighting against great odds to keep his command together, ATTENDS ARMORY C Page One.) and who has now realized tno aream of years, Capt.

" The Honorable President and Members of tho State Armory Board, In accepting tho custody of the arm ory in behalf of Company E, Thir teenth Infantry, I am greatly hon ored, and it will be our duty and pleasure to maintain and proporly care for samo according to your by laws and regulations govorning state armories. " I also wish to oxprcss to tho State Armory Board, tho apprecia tion of every officer and enlisted man in .giving to us this lino building and home without which, gentlemen, wo would have ceased to exist as a part of the National Guard of Pennsylva nia; also at this time I wish to ex tend our gratitude toward the Citi zens' Committee, the Local Armory Board and tho citizens of Honesdale, "who have so willingly helped us in our struggle. Again, gentlemen of the State Armory Board, we thank you. And we thank tho county com ml3sioners for their kind assistance.' .

Glory, Hallelujah's"' to the top of trving unir. Introducing tho Chief Executive of the Keystone State, Chairman Greeno said: " A little moro than a year ago it was my pleasure to introduce to the people of Honesdalo a candidate for Governor of tho State. That can didate was elected. He has given to the people of this commonwealth one of the best, safest, sanest, most con servative and business-like adminis trations that this Stato has over seen. It becomes again my pleasure to welcome him to Honesdale as the Governor of this great common wealth, Governor John K. Tener." (Tumultous Applause). Governor Teller's Address. Governor Tener spoke as follows: Mr. unairman. Officers and Mem bers of Company E, Ladies and Gen tlemen: " Tho inirmlnptinn plvnn mo nr rather tho notice you had in ' ad vance, mat tne oniy real orator is the speaker who follows me, Is per haps tho best and most truthful in troduction I havo evor had. " Blessed aro they who expect nothing. They shall not be disap pointed." " About ono year ago I was In Honesdale, as a candidate. Wo had an audienco somo audienco not such an audience as this, nor so many voters, nor any ladles. But we survived that and I'm glad to bo here. Since tho day your invitation reached me, I havo looked forward to coming here, and my joy was not marred until we camo into the con fines of your county, when wo learn ed that your Chief Magistrate had only recently died. And while I be lieve that notwithstanding the death of Mr. Kuhbach these services should go on, tho sympathies in the heartB of this party go out to his family in thi3 sad hour of their lives. " I am glad to participate in tho dedication of this splendid building. These exercises aro Interesting be cause you may well claim and feel that something has been added to Wayne county; something tangible and real for Honesdale Is yours in this building owned by the State, but erected for the use of Company E and the Thirteenth Regiment. "This building Is beautiful, not only because of the beauty of the architecture, the massive construc tion, but it is especially beautiful In that it will house the men of Company E. " And whilo In these days, when Honesdale is at peace with all tho world, and Pennsylvania is at peaco with all the world, and our country is at peace with all the world, It seems strange wo should dedicate to tho uso of tho militia such a building, yet as General Dougherty said, whilo war is possible at all, this county and this Stato must be prepared for It. As the nation for tifies tho Panama Canal, as the na tion maintains a standing army and navy because of tho possibility of war, so Pennsylvania erects this Armory for tho uso and benefit of the militia. " The citizen soldiery of Pennsyl vania is tho second largest In num bers and in military operations, and tho most efficient body of men In tho National Guard of the United States. Not that our mon are more heroic and more willing to go to tho de fense of their country, but by rea son of the high personality Injected into the Guard from the Adjutant General down and in attention to equipment and details is better equipped to-day to move more quick ly than any Guard in tho United States. " I am glad to Do hero with you and particularly on this occasion. At the outset your Chairman stated In a rather extraordinary way that Gen eral Stewart was not yet near tho Golden Gates. I Imagine that the good General is perfectly satisfied If ho can't bo in tho Golden Gates to bo in Honesdale, which is a near ap proach to it. (Laughter). I bring you greetings. I'm clad to be here as tho representative of tno government of this Stato: not to mako an extended or formal ad- dross. I only rise that the Executlvo Department might be hero at this time and on this occasion. " I thank you." Cheers and Ap- piauso.j In introducing tho last speaker of, tuo attemoon, Mr. Green said: " Tho Pennsylvanlan who does not know Tom Stewart argues himself unknown. A gallant soldier of the Civil war, Department Commander of the Grand Army of the Republic, connected with the National Guard of this stato for more than forty years, an orator of countrywide rep utation. It gives me great pleasure to introduce Adjutant General Thos. J. Stewart": General Stewart's Address. "Your Excellency Governor Tener, Mr. President, Ladles and Gentle men : " I presume you noticed tho liberty each of the speakers took with your humble servant. When they wanted to fill in they used me. " There are a lot of Companies in our National Guard that would like a building like this and I know of none to whom It could be given more ap propriately." 0 ! BREAKING THE NEWS. They said that I, as having been his friend, Beloved by and loving him as well, Should bear the message; that perchance 'twould tend To break the blow wero Hps of mine to tell The tale of death, and must my heart rebel. The heart that flamed with joy and leaped with pride When bullets flew like hall from belching skies Around me, and red death march at my side? Ah mo! the dread I felt within me rise, To meet tho terror in that woman's eyes. I went; I did not dare to less. I turned From looking at the white dread face, and sought That other, warm and flushed with life, and learned, (Ah fool!) a form of words by which I thought To gently loose the thunderbolt I brought. She met me smiling; I had rather seen Hot hate for me aflame upon her face. She gave me cordial welco me; to have been Lifeless like him, and lying in his place, Wore hardly worse than bowing to this grace. I bent mo to my task: "God wills" I said. And then my tongue forgot what it had learned; A direful pause, while In my face she read Bold signs of deep distress. Her red cheeks spurned Their bloom of blood; her heart with swift fear burned. She , fixed on mine her dark, dilated eyes; They pierced me through and through. "Quick! speak!" she said. i uarea not disobey. "Your husband Hes- Agaln I failed; she clasped my arm, she plead: "My husband, what of him?" Then I; "He's dead!" Her grasp was loosed. Backward she stepped and stood Like somo fair tree boforo the lightning's stroke Shattered Its living heart. My very blood Ran cold, such horror from her wild eyes spoke; A moment thus and then her soul awoke. A piercing shriek, hand grasping hands above Her head and loosening all her hair, she fell Face downward to the earth, I could not move. ' Her weight of grief had bound me with a spell Which earth had not the power to break nor hell They came at last, I know not how nor when, And lifted her and bore her from my sight. The bond was loosed, I stirred and spoke, and then i ion tne uio wimin me move aright But long eternity shall not efface that night. Homer Greeno. V "CAPTAIN" HENRY WILSON IN General Stewart referred to a num ber of letters Captain Kolloy wrote to him, In ono of which he said: "I am compelled to wrlto this letter in the open air. I haven't any home. "In the fifty years that are closing moro has been done, for humanity and liberty than was over done in tho world's history. "Hero in this front seat sit tho men of 'Gl.

" Remember that we dedicate this day this building to patriotism to the National Guard of Pennsylvania to tho honor of the nation, to the glory or tno uag, to peaco in all her bord ers." (Applause). The specchmaklng was ended, and tho audience heaved a great sigh of satisfaction.
