Resolution of Thanks.
More than forty Confederate
veterans met in the court house
at 2 o'clock Saturday afteruoon
to give expression in regard to
pensions. It. was theseuse of the
meeting, owing to the now very
advanced age of all who saw ser
vice iu the -Civil War—ended
nearly 50 years ago, that all, re
gardless of property holding >r
physical condition, should re;
ceive a pension; thatth«pensions
should be increased 100 percent,,
making them twi«»' wna" laey ure
now, in order to assure ilio&e
with insufficient income a'u ade
quate support, and that all wid
ows who married Confederal** sol
diers prior to the first day of Jan
uary, 1880, be included HS pen
sioners. - "
The memorial or petition sent
to the Legislature, embodied the
above provisions.
The following resolution of
thanks was adopted:
We, the Veterans of Alamance
county, nwe our appreciation and
h vote >f thanks to the Daughters
of the Confederacy for their uoble
uid patrjotic devotion and paiuft
takin. c*v»*of us through all these
list trying y*ar» *aiir to their
motheis for house-keeping during

sti nction.
Ai.iy God's richest blessings at
tend ihe Daughters in all their
pilgrimage, and may they be able
to l»ave their children a greater
and richer heritage th»tn they re
ceived.
The Daughters are given the
ballot, and may they une it for
peace, temperance and righteous
ness; and when the Lord shall
judge anion? the nations and re
buke many people*, then shall
they beat their swords into plow
shares and their spears into prun
ing hooks. Nation shall not lift
np sword against nation, neither
shall they learn wftr any more, is
the prayer of the veterans that
followed Lee and Jackson.
