On subordinate pedes- 8 ; tals occupying positions in the four 0 segments, are bronze statues of Gov. Morton, Gov. Whiteomfc, Gen. William P Henry Harrison, and Gen. George h : Roger Clark. Above the entrance. fac- B |ing the south is the inscription of P dedication: K "To Indiana's Silent Victors." * ii Wednesday, September 22. 41 This morning the Grand Army of D: the Republic martJW;- there was F about 15,000 In line. They assembled

at the side streets and at *he monument circle at 8:30 a. m., and at 9:15 they took their place in line. All disabled veterans who were unable to : march had automobiles provided for : them; at 10:00 a. m. three guns were 1 fired as the signal to march. The 1 Sons of Veterans, as the escort, fol- ' lowed immediately after Adjt. Gen. 1 and his Aides in the column, ' then the Old Guard of Ohio, I the personal escort of the Command- 1 er-in-Chief. The old guard in uni- t of blue and carrying arms, will the only fully equipped unit in the ' parade. i New Jersey had about 80 veterans 0 in line. The route of march was a over one mile. There were oniy * that fell out of line, which was 8 to the pluck and in domical spirit I

s of the old boys. There was music in ? 0 plenty; brass bands, but above all that 1 ' seemed to delight the immense crowds ' , that lined the route of parade was the B old veterans fife and drum, when it i- comes to arouse the fighting spirit; t a that is the kind that will do it The t old men from Sioux Falls — there is Y e only two fifers and three drummers ' ~ left — men 77 to 83 years and hardy b ^ as old oak trees, they play old war n . aongs; "Dixie", "Marching Through n Georgia", "The Girt I Left Behind T 1 Me", "The White Cockade", "Tramp, tl 5 Tramp, ".etc. ii 8 There are four of these Old Veteran C ~ Bands or the remnants still left; one tl t from Boston, one from Ohio and one ! a r from Indiana, but the most charming j " ! and beautiful right was the fife and [ a i drum corps composed of daughters w of veterans, of Chicago; all in white fT

I There were many and eurprigjng inI adenta which took place in the line of march, but I will not be able to add for the want of space. What , the most surprising thing to the i masses was the energy and stamina , exhibited by Che old boys, but they do . not lika_to be looked upon as "old _ men". After the parade dismissed, ; the Scout Boys went up to some of them and wanted to lead same across the crowded streets. When the bo£tf attempted to take holl of their arm, the ok) felolws would straighten np and ask the boys what was wanted, and when told, they would say," that's all right, sonj can take care of myself".

One of the im- . portant matters taken up was the • , Pledge, which National G. A. • t urges for use in the public schools . and which the state of Illinois adopted , . three years ago, as follows: . I "I pledge allegiance to the Stars and i . Stripes and to the Republic for which stands; one language, one country, , flag." i With our country full of persons of j ■ birth and so many new flags 1 ; and Republics springing up, it is im- ■ ^ portat that the children pledge alleg- j giance to the Stars and Stripes, re- 1 moving all doubt as to what flag and , what country they are swearing to ' ^ support. | , A resolution providing for the en- 1 trance of the G.

one long to be remembered. We are especially grateful to the officers and t employees of the street railway who 5 hare so materially assisted in enabling ' us to go about the city. As we re- ! turn to our homes, and this encamp- ■ ment becomes a memory, we go- with ~- gratitude for what you have done and ! in earnest prayer that your prosper- ■ ity may continue." ' The 54th National Encampment 1 closed today at 12:30, and has now ! passed into history. It was the great1 est encampment ever held. At 2:80 p. m. all of the delegates who desired to go were taken on an Ittutomdhile trip to Fort Benjamin There was automobiles which carried five persons, making a j of five thousand veterans and wives or their daughters. It was a I delightful trip. There are about 20,000 United States Infantry stationed there. After a lunch, the old Vets were shown all over the fort, and at 6:00 p. m. we left the fort and returned to Indianapolis again. ' Too much praise cannot be given the good people of Indianapolis for their keen and kindly interest which they have shown to the old veterans of '61, and the Boy Scoots were aim at band living up to their train- * ing that the greatest privilege of a Scout is to be of service to others. "The men and women of tthe committee did their part well. The veter- ' are going home with many pleasant memories. They have been greeted with the old time Hoosier enthusiasm and entertained as honored ^ — - guest.
