MEMORIAL DAY
Tomorrow is Memorial Day, and in every city and
hamlet in America, citizens will gather to pay honcr to ;
the memory of those who gave their services and their j
lives for their country. Seward joins in paying tribute
to those residents of the Silent City, who were comrades
in arms. May our memories of their sacrifice never be
dimmed.
