I do not think I ever did anything quite as joyfully, whole-héartedly as the little matter I beg to relate brief- 1y here. I do not remember the date exactly, but it was early in President Roose- velt's first term, when the Governor of Ohio—then Nash—and a large committee came to Antietam to dedi- cate the monument erected there for Ohio’s men who fell in the great battle of September 17, 1862. It was a beautiful day, a large crowd in attendance, and an imposing and im- pressive ceremony observed. It is not to describe that I sat down to write this sketch, but to re- call the ceremony at the McKinley monument, above Burnside bridge. This was after the regular services, when groups gathered at places of special interest to them. It so hap- pened that I ean name now all who were present—Assistant Secretary of Agriculture Brigham, Assistant Sec- retary of War Oliver, Capt. David D. | Wood and their ladies.
