SPEAKS AT /
JUSTICE
At BlgfMt Tenth of May Reaaloa
Held at Jartfc* ? Many Other
Good Speeches ? Bin Dtaaer
A ad Pipe Occasion
One of the biggest tenth of
Hay celebrations that the Justice
community has witnessed In
years oocurred at the Justice
school on Thursday of the past
week. Besides the attendance of
a record breaking crowd, an un
usually Interesting program was
presented and a most bountiful
ai)d delicious dinner served.
Of course this celebration, as
those In the past, was centered
ground the memory of the Con
federate veterans, few of whom
are with us now. More, however,
than have attended the re-union
at Justice for some years, were
present on this occasion, thero
being a round half dozen. These
men were presented to the audi
ence by Mr. Lawrence Miller, who
was Master of ceremonies, as fol
lows: Messrs. John W. Bone and
O. W. Joyner, of Nash County;
Mr. Charlie Rlggan of Warren
County; and Messrs. R. V. Col
lie, J. H. Sledge, and J. L. Bow
den, of Franklin county, the last
named being a resident of the
Justice community and chiefly
responsible for this celebration.
Mr. R. L. McMillan, lawyer
from Raleigh and speaker for the
occasion, who was introduced by
Mr. R. E. Miller, gave a most in
spiring talk on the subject "Rob
ert E. Lee". He began by re
minding his hearers that this
was an occasion which paid trib-'
ute both to the Confederate dead j
and to those Confederates who ,
are now living among whom is '
one, namely J. L. Bowden of Jus
tice. who about two decades ago
started a movement for the erec
tion of a memorial to his fallen
comrades which now stands in
the form of a monument on the
Justice school grounds, the first
such monument in Franklin coun
ty.
After having cited certain def
inite facts concerning Lee's life,
the speaker centered the atten-j
tion of his audience on the spot-'
lessly pure life of Lee who was:
pronounced by General Scott at
one time as the "greatest living i
American soldier". Some people
think him greater than any sol
dier In history, stated the speak
er. A sculptor once, preparing
to make a bust of Lee, searched
everywhere that he might find
the best material, saying that he
'would use only the purest marble
for this work*
Perhaps the biggest idea that
the speaker stressed was that tp
Lee there was no higher loyalty
than to adhere to duty. He pos
sessed every virtue of other great
commanders without their vices
and being such a character, he Is
the finest representation of Amer
ican citizenship that we know.
The Confederate veterans were
each called upon to speak. All
declined except Mr. Bone from
Nash county who together with
Mr. Riggan was at Appomattox
when Lee surrendered; and Mr.
J. L. Bowden, of Justice, both of
whom related many of the thrill
ing adventures that they experi
enced In the War between the
States.
Among the other speakers
were Messrs. J. O. Sledge, Frank
Whelese, W. L. Lumpkin. Charles
Green, A. E. Splvey, Eugene Wil
son, Edwin Malone, Frank Whe
lesa, Jr., Harold D. Cooley,
George Ross Poo, and Miss Annie
Perry Neal.
During the program, a letter
received from Mrs. Joe Creek
more, wife of a Confederate vet
eran, was read by Mr. L. A. Mil
ler.
Snappy musical selections were
rendered throughout the program
by a string band and such vocal
selections as America, Dixie, Star
Spangled Banner, and Tenting
Tonight, rendered by choir and
audience lent to the' occasion a
truly patriotic air which was re
peated in the decorations of red,
white and blue. Spring flowers
and wreaths completed the dec
orative scheme.
Prayer waa offered by Mr.
Frank Whelest, Loulsburg.
At the conclaslon of the pro
gram, the audience adjourned
and gathered about the monu
ment In front of the school build
ing for a salute fired by mem
bers of Battery "B" who were
present to help make this an out
standing gala day for the veter
ans.
Immediately a most dellcioua
dinner was served, thanks being
said by Mr. Edwin Malone.
In the afternoon, the crowd
witnessed an exciting ball game
