Memorial Day: Bitterness of Past Forgotten (1911-06-03)

100 Years Ago, Memorial Day (May 30) and Decoration Day (June 3), 1911: "bitterness of the past forgotten." Finally, the deep divisiveness of The Late Unpleasantness - the American Civil War, seemed to be laid to rest with back to back events, the Union Memorial Day and the Confederate Decoration Day, with leaders on both sides appealing to the better side of Adair Countians to forget the bitterness of the War and enjoy the rapid progress of the recovery of the South

By Jim
The muffled drum's sad roll has beat
The soldier's last tattoo;
No more on Life's parade shall meet
That brave and fallen few.
On fame's eternal camping ground
Their silent tents to spread,
And glory guards, with solemn round
The bivouac of the dead.
(From "The Bivouac of the Dead," by Theodore O'Hara)
Articles about both Memorial Day and Decoration Day observances -- traditions started around the time of the Civil War -- appeared on the front page of the June 7, 1911 News.In regard to the former, the News related to readers that on Tuesday, May 30th, remembrances of the departed were "observed at a number of points in Adair County." For example, a large crowd assembled at Bear Wallow, and "the day was appropriately observed" in song and speech. At Mount Carmel, the speakers included Rev. B.M. Currie of Columbia and Rev. Wm. Black of Cane Valley. In addition to divers speeches and food in abundance, "There were many beautiful flowers which were placed upon the graves of departed heroes and departed civilians."

Poetry by Robert Stone: What's this, a sonnet

What's this?
- a sonnet for the birthday of a friend
What's this about my insights? I claim none.
This blurting out unwanted words - alarms
no friend or stranger seeing silly fun
and thinking who is this who flaunts false charms.

What's this about my comments? Most ignore.
This spraying intimations poor -- respects
no kind or bitter seeking points to score
and finding what are only disconnects.

What's this about my caring? Some attest.
This treating unresponsive hope -- provides
no light or darkness guiding to the best
and satisfying why reply divides.

What's this about poor poetry? My Verse,
if only rhymes and rhythms could coerce.

- Robert Stone, 29 May 2011
