History Of The Confederated Memorial Associations Of The South PDF Download

Excerpt from History of the Confederated Memorial Associations of the South This volume is a votive offering at the shrine of our short lived nation's memory, by the last of the Old Guard of that noble race of women, whose superb heroism was only limited by the supreme need of its action. It is written in the current which flowed from bleeding hearts, it is bound in love, it is launched in hope. May history perennially repeat its story, and preserve it as the immortal testimony that the women of the South were as true to their duty to rise and build as her men were to suffer and die. None can read the record of these pages, without being moved to admiration of the undaunted spirit that brought forth from the wine-press of poverty and self-denial, fruits of toil, that crystallized into glittering mon aments of love, cleaving the skies of the Southland.
