The response of Commander-in-Chief Stewart was inspir- ing in the highest degree. His utterances touching the greatness of the country, the matchless devotion of tRe Union soldfers in the civil war and the splendid chiracter of citizenship and soldlership which the Grand Army had given to the governing authority of the nation elicited great ap- | plause. The speech, sentence by sen- | tence, and in its completeness, was pro- ! nounced by listeners as one of the most cloquent that they ever had heard. The talk reminded old timers of Baker, and | those of a later period of Barnes. Comrades Beath and Sample of Penn- | vlvania and Comrades W. C. Hawley and N. P. Chipman of California respond- ed fittingly and eloquently to sentiments expressed by Commander Cutler. One good story was told by Comrade Sample of Pennsylvania touthing the common remark about the veterans pass- | ing away.
