as authentic by the sergeant.
Sgt. Farrell and his brother are both
natives of New Haven, Conn., having
enlisted with Uncle Sam early in the
war. P. A. Farrell, the deseased sol
dier held the rang of sergeant with
Co. B of the 102nd Infantry..

•Oh, who shall sing that mighty tale.
The shock of sword and lance.
When Britain quaked and seeming,
God
iRemembered not his France?
The crimson popies blow to sing.
Aloft the lark has taken wing.
Above the graves the lilies spring,
And these are troubedours.
In those glad days when once again
The martialled plow shall green
The strickened hills and plenty fruits
The valley scars between;
Some poet’s heart shall haply word
The poppy song and song of bird.
But lily song shall still be heard— .
The sweetest troubedour.
—By H. G. Link, Jr., of Charlotte.
