OUR FIVE PATRIOTIC ORGANIZATIONS
Unlike other towns in our county. Nunda has two Grand Army Posts, two Camps Sons of Veterans, and one large and active Woman's Relief Corps. The graves in twelve cemteries are decorated by these organizations with the as- sistance of Hall Post at Hunt in the town of Portage. Already the graves to be decorated are more in number than are the veterans who decorate them.
Memorial Ode
O, Spirits of the dead! We invocate your presence. Ye for whom A Nation reverently bows the head, And weaves a chaplet for each lowly tomb. The violet's incense and the rose's bloom For ye are shed.
We call to thee. We may not know from what supernal height Star-lit and glory-crowned. the spirit free. All unafraid. uplifts its standard bright- As when in mortal combat. in the might Of Truth and Liberty.
Or may ye vet be found,
Reluctant still to quit your uncoffined clay- Encamped upon the ensanguined battle-ground, Your phantom hosts still marshaled for the fray. Awaiting there till the last judgment day The bugle's sound?
It is not ours to know If by swift Rappahannock's rushing tide, Or turbid Chickamauga's sullen flow. Or on bold Lookout's rugged mountain side. Ye still keep watch and ward with martial pride Against the foe.
This we may surely tell : Your sacrificial blood flowed not in vain, 'Tis Freedom's shrine the field whereon ye fell And consecrated the red battle-plain. A Nation's benediction on her slain : Ye nobly won, and well.
JOHN W. HAND.

WOMAN'S RELIEF CORPS, NO. 57
This corps of workers was organized March 13, 1902, with seventeen members, and has had in all one hundred and six members. Of this number it has lost by death three of its most active members, namely, its First Chap- lain, Mrs. Martha K. Dennis; Mrs. Jennie Craig, a Past Senior Vice Com- mander, and on August 1, 1907, Mrs. Ellen W. Post, who had served as dele- gate to state convention held at Saratoga. These ladies were efficient and zeal- ous workers and true patriots.
This organization has been of incalculable benefit to the community in many ways, particularly as a dispensor of aid to the afflicted and needy; in fact, it has been the only organization that has practiced systematic charity to all in special need of kindly courtesy or practical aid. Besides these acts of kindness to the sick or afflicted, it has furnished substantial aid to the amount of five hundred and thirty dollars.
Composed, as it is, of people from the various churches, it has aided in breaking down some sect and social boundaries and proved that 75 or more women can work harmoniously on the plane of a common interest in humanity.
The successive presidents of this corps have been : Rev. Clara E. Morgan, Mrs. Teressa Baylor, Mrs. Mary B. Richmond and Miss Mabel H. Dowling.
