N the 30th day of May, 1878, the people of Carroll County assembled in Delphi to pay their annual tribute to the mom- ory of their departed heroes by decorating the graves of such with the fresh, blooming flowers of the enchanting spring-time. The exercises were participated in by the Logan Grays. under command of Capt. D. H. Chase, of Logansport. the Uniformed Patriarchs, and citizens generally. The remains of Corp. Booth- royd. the first of our soldiers killed in the war. were disinterred. placed in a neat case, and deposited in the corridor of the court house, early on the morning of Thursday, May 30. The coffin was handsomely decorated with garlands of flowers, and the flag under which he fell. with a silver plate. also, bearing the follow- ing inscription: "Corporal Dyson Boothroyd. Co. A. 9th Ind. Vols. (3 months service), killed July 13,1861."


The exercises were conducted under the personal direction of Maj. James M. Watts. After appropriate music, a prayer was offered by Rev. Dr. Robinson. when Judge Gould was introduced. and spoke as follows: .


LADIES AND GENTLEMEN: It is one of the noblest and grandest in- pulses of our hearts that prompts us to honor the memory of the good, the generous, and. the brave. From the earliest ages, it has been customary to inseribe their names on monuments, and to strew their graves with gar- lands of affection. More especially is this tribute dne to the memory of of those who have fallen in defense of their country. The death of the true and the heroic always awakens our grief and our sympathy; but when the spirit of self-sacrifice impels men to face danger and death, we find it impossible to withhold our admiration. Our noblest faculties are appealed to, and we strive to perpetuate the memory of the fallen martyrs to hu- manity. Pericles, the illustrions Athenian, whose genius shed immortal glory over his country, whose statesmanship advanced her power, whose heroie spirit led her brave sons to battle against overwhelming numbers, and whose eloquence so moved his countrymen in times of great danger was chosen to pronomee an oration in honor of those who had fallen in the Peloponnesian war. Standing in the presence of all that was imposing in Athens-her scholars, her statesmen, her artists-he declared it to be a debt of justice to pay superior honors to the men who had yielded their lives to their country. That noble sentiment should animate us all; for those who died in defense of our country, and in defense of the honor of the nation's flag, fell a sacrifice for us. No transient glow of gratitude prompts ns to houor their memory; we recognize it as a debt of justice.


The living may wear the laurels they have justly won, but our slum- bering heroes can receive no reward in this world for theirl courage and


their sufferings, except that which the survivors decree to them. Let us not theo withhold the tribute of our admiration for those who have toiled ; and suffered for our race, who have yielded themselves up in the spirit of self-sacrifice for others. No matter how honorable the place may be that one fills who bears the burdens of humanity, we yield him the involuntary homage of a grateful recognition of nobleness. If with true manhood he stands firm in the presence of danger and confronts death for the sake of others, he cannot die in vain; he is at once a hero and a martyr.


A nation with no high military traditions, no glorious legends, no lofty examples, no great national sentiment, no warm pulse of national honor, is like a body without the vitalizing presence of a brave and contented soul. The Grecian glory which, after two thousand years gathers around Ther- mopyke, is as bright and enduring now as it was the day Leonidas fell. I therefore deem it singularly appropriate that we should annually assemble ourselves together around these hallowed shrines of the nation, and while honoring the memory of our fallen heroes, refresh ourselves from the richly laden treasures of our national history in which is recorded our country's triumphs in arms, in arts, in literature, science, morals and government. Let us glance briefly at some of the scenes and events which this day so vividly recalls to the minds of all. Back over the sweep of the seasons, and the flight of years, our thoughts irresistibly turn to those events which connect our loved ones who died that the land might live, and whose brave hearts were the precious holocausts so freely and zealously offered on the red altar of war for the protection and preservation of the republic.


Prior to the year 1861, we all believed that our lot had been cast in pleasant places; and our matchless system of government had developed its legimate blessings among a free people : agriculture, commerce and manufactures -cities, villages and hamlets - universities, colleges and schools. The rights of every section were amply secured by constitutional restrictions; with no right assailed, no interest invaded, and no lawful claim withheld, it now seems almost incredible that men, who had been educated and honored by the Government, could be found base enough to attempt, with parricidal ingratitude, to tear down the pillars which sup- port this Temple of Liberty, and npon its ruins rear another Government, having for its corner stone human slavery.' And yet the attempt was made and a stupendous civil war was inaugurated by the insurgents. That flag which had been carried in triumph through three wars, was for the first time dishonored and trailed in the dust by men who had ever found pro- lection beneath its ample folds, who sought to sunder your country and cleave your very history in twain, to extinguish your nationality, to make the whole land the hot-bed of petty warring powers, and to close your history with the crime of national suicide and a sentence of ineffable disgrace.


And this monstrous conspiracy had been secretly planned, and its lead- ing actors had been preparing for it for years before the war-clouds obseured the horizon. At the commencement of the war our army, then only a few thousand, was in distant Territories, and our little navy had been sent to distant seas, while in every department of the Government there were Jurk- ing spies. It was then, when officers of the army and navy were deserting that Government which had showered honors thick npon them, when coun- selors betrayed, when gloom, darkness and sorrow obsenred the sunlight of hope ; it was then that the pilot who stood at the helm of the Ship of State, that pilot, who had been chosen from the ranks of the people in behalf of the Union of the States, with unerring instinct appealed to the people, and the people nobly responded to the call of Abraham Lincoln : for there was found in the great throbbing heart of the American. people that love for the Republic which caused our citizens to spring to arms in its defense, as though the earth had been sown with dragon's teeth, and the whole land was soon swarming with armed men. The marts of commerce and the em- poriums of trade were troubled as never before. The busy artisan, the man . of gain, the pale student at his task, the Bishop in his robes, men of all grades, classes and pursuits stood amazed and left their accustomed eallings to obey the summons to arms. Ah, then-


" The soul of battle was abroad, And blazed upon the air."


The patriot did not long hesitate in placing himself on the side of his country in that dark hour of national peril. The aged father proudly watched his patriotic son as he manfully went forth in obedience to his country's call, and with trembling lip pronounced the " God bless yon;" the fond mother silently bestowed the blessing of a mother's kiss upon her dar- ling boy : the loving wife, suppressing the anguish of her heart, hastened the departure of her husband ; the trusting maiden heroically bade adien to her lover : and friend grasped the hand of friend and prayed that the God of battles would give victory to our arms. Oh, what sacrifices were made! Letter by letter and word by word, they are traced upon the sad hearts of ahnost every household in the land. Your sons and brothers and fathers went forth in the freshness of their youth, and in the maturity of their man- hood, and freely gave their lives in defense of the nation's flag, and history shines brighter under the record of their heroism, and generations yet un- born shall read the record of their fame which even the corroding rnst of time shall not destroy.


. Among the soldiers who went forth from Carroll County there were many whose irresistible march extended from the Potomac to the Rio Grande ; many who celebrated the anniversary of American Independence in the enemy's chosen stronghold at. Vicksburg ; many who climbed the rock-ribbed mountain sides, and planted their battle flags far above the clouds where Hooker fought and Lytle fell ; many who knocked loudly for

admission at the Gate City of the South and were admitted, too : many who were with the impetuous Sherman in that memorable > march to the sea," and many who were at Apponmattox when Lee bowed his head to the unobtrusive but indomitable commander of the Army of the United States. And their graves billow every battle-field From the lakes to the ocean. While we grasp the warm hands of the living, we can Int. remember the cold hands of the dead. While we gaze upon the many faces of the sur- vivors of the conflict, we can dont think of the heroic army of the dead, who -- with all their banners set, and all their battle-harness ou, soldier and offi- cer, chieftain and trooper, by ranks and by platoons, by the hundred and by the thon and-are holding their long, solemn bivouac, with the silent stars for their only sentinels, Their places are vacant here, but let us make unto them places in our hearts, Their lips are mute, and no voice of theirs is heard ; but let our own memories speak For them, and our own lips syl- lable for them the patriotic utterances they were wout to use. And ahove all. let our own actions here, and in every period and crisis of the future. be but the outspoken expression of the high purpose and unshaken devo- tion that signalized their lives, and the bold and enthusiastic vindication of the cause, in defense of which they perished. So shall their cold lips speak and their graves become the hallowed shrines of the nation.


Through four weary years of stern, relentless war, the smoke of the contiet went up to the heavens, and obseured the sun by day and darkened the guiding stars by night. And now that the conflict of arms is ended. and the passions of men are hushed, we know how to appreciate the high- souled courage of those who gave their lives in defense of the Republic. They fought in the midst of a population, more hostile and mirelenting than that which surrounded Xenophen in his march from the plains of C'imaxa : or the Swedish Charles, when his legions were shattered by the Muscovites at Pultowa. They fought a skillful and determined enemy upon the fields of his own choice : and after a series of battles, unsurpassed in the history of warfare, for their fierceness and tenacity-victory, linal. honorable and complete -perched upon the tattered battle-flags of the Union army. And, thus the slave-holder's infamous rebellion was sup- pressed, and to-day, with pride and exultation, we point to our national ensign. llonting unhindered and andisturbed. over the whole domain of the American Union.


" Begrimmed by shot, and form by shell. Ant each star standing in Its place. More boly for the hearts that fell. "To shield it from disgrace."


I believe it to be true that no great result was ever achieved without some mighty sacrifice. and no great principle ever triumphed except over field- marked by temporary disaster. The burdens brought upon the people by war was the price of the nation's redemption, and the costly sacrifice was demanded as the precious cost of its final regeneration. Did you ever pause to count the precious lives, of even our own citizens, which were laid upon the country's altar, to save the Government from the bloody maw of dissolution ? It may not be ami -- for me to mane those from Carroll County alone, who Fell upon the field.

A press of other engagements has necessarily rendered this catalogue incomplete, for there are many other untarnished names I cannot now re call to mind. our neighbors and Friends, who gave their lives, and should be classed with the knightly heroes I have named. In addition to these, it would be quite safe to add an equal mumber who returned to their homes to die of wounds or disease contracted in the line of their duty as soldiers.


My friends, we best hoper ourselves when we honor the memory of these our dead. In the short time allotted to me on this occasion, it is im. posible for me to recount in detail the particular acts of heroism and the grand achievements of these men, which lie like massive facts upon mimmy pages of history, and they are as indelittle as the lines of the engraver's chisel upon the surface of the unwasting rock. But for the dead. those days of war and deeds of valor would seem like dreams gone hy. In the red and reeling fray, these men died with their faces to the foe; they met on the weary march. in the hospital of wasting disease. in the field, and when their ringing shouts of victory sent dismay to the heart of their country's enemies; they grasped each other by the hand under the frown ing guns of Vicksburg, and Chickamauga, and Atlanta and a hundred other historic fields where their valor wrested victory from the very jaws of death. Can the day ever come when these martyred heroes shall be di- honored and the faith of their lives desecrated ? "Shall it ever come to be said that they died ignobly and in vain ? Thank God ! when the rebellion was crushed and its legions dispersed, our Jain slept within the lines of our own army, and beneath the shadowy sheen of our banners, The father's of the Revolution laid the fondation of a structure which their hands saved from destruction, That foundation was laid in a belief of the capacity of man for self government, and the valor of their sons has demonstrated it - wisdom. That grand outburst of poplar affection-that sublime ps hibition of patriotic resolution -- that simple, patient. unfaltering adherence to principle and to purpose, which vindicated the authority and assured the existence of the American Republic through the crimson years of the late war, is the surest pledge of its perpetuity and gives a parer emphasis to the language of the Roman bard . .. Ye have raised monuments more last . ing than brazen statues, higher than the royal pyramids, which cannot be destroyed by wasting mins of the fury of the winds, by the series of count less ages, of the flight of the eternal year -. " But the war has ended. and a magnaninion- government has restored the insurgents to the full rights of citizenship, and exempted them from the penalty of their crimes, and the God we now serve is not Jupiter, grasping the ted lightning of destruction. nor Mars, the avenging and triumphant, and we honor the memory of those who fell. Matured manbood and undeveloped youth, we lament them all, for they were our country's brightest jewels.


"ttow steep the brave, who sink to rest By all their country's wastres blest. When spring, with dewy fingers cold. ticturns to deck their fialtowed mold. She then sboll dress a sweeter sod Than fairy's feet have ever trod.


" By fairy brandts their knett is rung : By forms unseen their dirge is smy : There ttonor comes, a pilgrim gray. To bless the turf that wraps their clay. And P'rodum shall awtrite repair. And dy ett a weeping bermit there."
