Beautiful aud Impressive Memorial services were held at Frankllnton Sun day afternoon to the menu?ry ot Jam?; K, Henley, a world war hero, by the' after a short church service. ; The remains which had been taken to the home of an aunt near town, were escorted to the cemetery by quite a large number of citizens, where they were met by Capt, H. W. Ferry and a large number of members of Battery B. They then entered the beautiful little cemetery and proceeded to -the grave where another large crowd was waiting to join in paying reBpect to cue who had made the supreme aae rifice on the battlefields' of Prance. At the grave Rev. C. L. Dowell made a few remark? leclUnt, some ot the family history, which revealed the facts that his . father was deceased, his mother In 111 health, and having an ortly brother and an? aunt to Join Hs mother In their sorrow. Rev, C. A., Cotton offered prayer, and the < hair sanR "Hark~t4g Hie Voice of An "Shall We Gather at the RIv er" :.nd "Jesus Lover or My Buul." The scr vices having been turned over to Lh'j I'Yanklin County Memorial Aa soclation, Mr. W. H.

M. Beam, an ex-service matt and a com rade among the boys. ' "Why are we gathered together at the grave where the flag of our coun try la dranfid about the casket of a boy who paid the supreme sacrifice and where the uniform Is worn," and the speaker proceeded to pay a beau tiful tribute to the men who answered the call, following their every move ment from their appearance before the draft Board, through camp, across the water In the front line under shell fire to the time one or another would pay the supreme sacrifice and his body laid awaV, later to be returned hoiqe for the service such as we are holding here today to do honor unto him to whom honor Is due. He did not picture all glory, but pointed out the many hard ships for which we, who were 'left at home should always appreciate. He spoke beautifully of the spirit in which the boys left, fought, Sled or returned home, and, paid a fitting tribute to the ladles who labored long and hard, and made equal sacrifices, though not on the actual fighting tine, during the time when through the Will of God, the Gerankn "Empire was made to v know thai tylgUt was not, Rlg^t. He used this ?cen? to impress on all the importance of each pne performing their mission In life as #ell as the American boys did In France. In con ' elusion of a most Interesting address the speaker quoted the following poem from Longfellow: Tell me not, in mournful numbers, "Life'Is but an empty dream!" For the soul is dead that stumbers, And things are not what they seem. Life is real! Life is earnest K t And the grave Is not Its goal; '."Dust thou art. to dust returnest," Was not spoken of the soul, l , Not enjoyment, and not sorrow, Is oar destined end or way; But to act, that each to-morrow Finds us farther than uo-flay. Art Is long, and Time Is. fieet'ng, And our hearts, though stout and brave, i Still, like muffled drums, are beating Funeral marches to the grave. In the world's broad flelfl of battle.
