in Chief.
The ceremony included
the folding of the flag
which rested on the coffin
iand presenting it to Mrs.
Roosevelt, and the playing
of “Taps” by the bugler.
The truly greatness of
man must end with the
grave. *
The statement credited
to Mark Anthony, “The
good men do, is often bur
ied, with their bones,” was
said before Democracy was
born to the earth. In a
democratic world, “the
good, men do,” is naturally
extended into the future,
and projected in the direc
tion where it will continue
to the greatest good for all.
Much of the life of Mr.
Roosevelt, was sipent in do
ing good for all mankind,
iin humanitarian enter
prises, for the present and
for the future generations.
In history, the name of
Franklyn Delano Roose
velt, will go down as one
of the most popular of the
great men of the world.
