O knihe

Excerpt from Memorial Addresses of Companion Brevet Brigadier General B. R. Cowen and Companion Wm. R. Collins: Delivered at the Annual Memorial Service, Commandery of Ohio, Military Order of the Loyal Legion of the United States at St. Paul's M. E. Church, Cincinnati, May 3, 1903

The author of that injunction was in no sense a model ruler, nor a model man. On the contrary he never could have been a member of the Ohio Commandery of the Loyal Legion for many good and sufficient reasons. But at the time he gave that injunction he was under the special favor of Almighty God who was giving him one more trial.

However, be that as it may, the injunction was wise and good, though, like a good many public speakers, both lay and clerical, King Ahab was something like the fingerboard at the parting of the ways which faithfully points the right way, but never travels that way itself.

The Companions whose names are specially in our thoughts to-night, and in whose memory we are drawn to gether by a common patriotic impulse on this holy day, as was becoming to good soldiers, put off their armor only when they passed from this life into the great beyond.
