CLIMAX OF REUNION.
Thousands of Veterans Marched in
Annual Parade A Picturesque Fea
ture Veterans Ride on United ,
States Cavalry Horses Three Old
Soldiers Answer Final Call.
Chattanooga, Tenn., Dispatch, May 29
With flags furled and kits packed,
many survivors of the Southern Army
who attended the 23rd annual United
Confederate Veterans' reunion here,
departed for their homes tonight.
Death stalked in the midst of the
cheering throng which today parti
cipated in the impressive veterans pa
rade. Three aged soldiers who came
to renew campaign friendships made
during the War Between the States,,
responded for the last time to their
regimental calls.
Robert Nolen, a veteran from Hous
ton, Texas, fell down the steps of
the city auditorium. His neck was
broken.
B. F. Moore, of Fuque, Texas, who
was injured in a fall yesterday, died
at a local infirmary today. G. W.
Mullenix, of Lindale, Ga., entered a
restaurant , just after the veterans
parade was ended and dropped dead.
Several veterans r were exhausted by
the trying ordeal of today's march,
but at a late hour, no additional
deaths had been reported.
Scenes tonight at the railroad sta
tion brought tears to the eyes of the
thousands of visitors who , were re
turning to their homes after attend
ing the reunion. Aged soldiers yhen
parting clasped each other in warm
embraces and uttered fervent pray
ers that they would meet again at the
next reunion.
Many were so feeble they could
scarcely clamber aboard the trains,
but willing hands were ready to as
sist them.
The climax of the reunion came to
day when several thousand veterans
marched and rode through the city
streets in their annual parade, ac
companied by sponsors, and escorted
by National guardsmen from several
States.
Scarcely a person of the many
thousand who witnessed the grand
spectacle tonight was able to speak
above a whisper, so voceferous were
their cheers accorded the gray haired
soldiers.
Gen. Bennett H. Young, of Louis
ville, Ky., commander-in-chief of the
United Confederate Veterans, led the
parade on a prancing horse from his
native State. Upon reaching his
headquarters he dismounted and,
standing bareheaded in the sunshine,
watched the survivors of the Confed
erate army pass by. Members of
Gen. Young's staff, Governor Hooper,
of Tennessee, Miss Kate Daffan, of
Austin, Texas, sponsor for the South,
and others were guests of Geh. Young
on the reviewing stand.
A picturesque feature of the parade
was the presence of several ne
gro "uncles" who followed their mas
ters through the War Between the
States. A number of these carried
live chickens, illustrative of the man
ner in which they foraged when food
was scarce during the fierce cam
paigns. They were heartily cheered by spec
tators and acknowledged greetings
with unique bows peculiar to the ante
bellum. Proudly bearing tattered battle
flags dimmed by powder, smoke and
time, the gray clad survivors of the
Confederate army marched through
streets awled on either side with
cheering thousands.
Standards borne by cavalrymen al
most encountered overhead arches
formed of entwined Confederate and
United States flags. Nearly a thous
and of the veterans were mounted on
the prancing horses of the 110th Unit
ed States Cavalry tendered by the
Fort Oglethorpe officials and offering
another mute testimonial of the burial
of bitterness which characterized the
War Between the States.
Hundreds of applauding spectators
who witnessed the impressive sight
were moved to tears by the flood of
memories it aroused.
No division appeared in a semb
lance of its entirety. Only a few
staunch survivors were left of the
more than 600,000 soldiers who repre
sented the Confederacy in the fiercest
struggle of modern times.
Gen. Young's staff was followed
by the 11th cavalry band, survivors
of the trans-Mississippi department,
the department of Northern Virginia,
the department of Tennessee, Forest's
cavalry corps and 1,000 mounted vet
erans.
Interspersed among the different
commands were the sponsors of the
divisions of the United Confederate
Veterans in each instance followed by
aged sotdierr riding in automobiles
The Richmond Howitzers and other
malitia acted as official military es
corts to the veterans.
The ranks of the veterans riding in
the automobiles were swelled from
time to time by those who had be
lieved themselves equal to marching
in the parade, but who were unable
to stand thetrying ordeal.
The trans-Mississippi department
was headed by Lieut. Gen. K. M. Van
mander ar. J his staff. Following in
class formation were the State brf
gades. Next came Lieut. Gen. Theodore
S. Garnett, of Norfolk, Va., commund-
er of the army of North Virginb. Bri
gades in numerical orders and their
commanders in this section were ir
ginia Commander Gen. Stith Boiling,
Mainland, Commander. Gen. A. C.
Trippe; North Carolina, Commander
Gen. Julian S. Carr; Commander B.
H. Teague, West Virginia; Comman
der Charles O. Peyton, Georgia; Com
manded H. Harrison, Opelika. of the
Army of Tennessee, rode at the ho.ad
of the State division in thut sec-
lion.
What was considered one of th?
most impressive and inspiring spec
tacles in the parade formed the rear
of the parade. One thousand mount
ed veterans preceded by a cavalry
corps of the late Gen. Nathan Bed
ford Forrest, who won the name of
the "Wizard of the Saddle" during
the War Between the States, com
posed this section. Gen. H. A. Tay
lor commanded.
The veterans for the first time since
the War Between the States were
mounted on United States cavalry
horses. Many humorous scenes were
enacted when the members of the
11th United States Cavalry turned
their mounts ' over to the aged vet
erans. Some of the veterans had
to be assisted into the saddle, but
all maintained their seats during the
parade, despite the capers of the
prancing steeds.
This afternoon the Pied Piper of
Hamlin was presented in a local park
by several hundred school children in
honor of the veterans.
In an official memorial to the
United Confederate Veterans tonight
Gen. Young calls attention to the sig
nificance attached to the furnishing of
the government horses to the veter
ans for today's parade. .The memo
rial in part follows:
"Tents and cots have been tendered
by the United States government, but
never before have Confederate veter
ans been supplied with horses for
their annual parade. This act of the
government toward the people of
Chattanooga and toward the veterans
is most highly appreciated. Surely
this act indicates that all the bitter
feeling of the war has passed away.
In no other country in the world, save,
this great republic, has such a thing
been possible. It speaks volumes for
the spirit that dominates the greatest
republic in the world. It shows that
in 50 years the passion and passage
of the most extended civil war in
history has been replaced by a com
radeship which is superior to any
peace monument."
Tonight reunion week was closed
with a grand ball tendered to the
Sons of Confederate Veterans who
met simultaneously wfth the United
Confederate Veterans.
The 51st annual fair of the Cum
berland County Agricultural Socie
ty will be held at Fayetteville Octo
ber 28-31. The entire -grounds and
buildings have been remodeled, a
new grand stand and flora"! hall built
at a cost of $10,000, and the race track
rebuilt.
