of the South who carried on under econdi-
tions that would have made carrying on
impossible to a less heroic strain of wo-
manhood.

_To understand the undying faith in
their cause, we must remember that

_ the Southern States have always been

the cradle of every movement for liberty
of this country.

The first American Deelaration of In-
dependence was signed in Charlotte,

North Carolina, on May 20, 1775, known

as the Mecklenberg Declarationmore
than one year before the famous Declara-
tion of Independence, authored by
Thomas Jefferson and adopted by the
delegates from the several colonies.

The record of the devotion and eour-

age of the women of the South is re-

plete with facts that ean but eause the

reader, unconsciously, to stand with un--

covered and bowed head in the land
where sueh devotion to God and duty
has lived. .

Many times, with ill fed families and
sick children without adequate medical
assistance, without money, with empty
smokehouses and corn eribs, and with

_ the added problem of incompetent and

child like negroes on their hands, they

wrote cheerful letters to their men at the
front and sought desperately to conceal
from them the conditions and suffering
through which they were passing. 2

Those of us who are old enough to
remember the men and the women of

_the period of great tribulation knew in

stinctively the love and respect, amount-
ing almost to adoration, in which the men
ef the. Confederacy held their women,
This was true to sueh an extent that
many people from other sections of the
country were utterly unable to under-
stand or comprehend why the women of
the South were set on such a high pedes-
tal.

In the homes of the old Confederate
soldiers, any disobedience or disrespect
to Ma, or to Mother as she might be call
ed, was almost the unforgivable sin and
was sure to call down upon the head of
the offender such punishment as would
not make it easy for them to commit the
same offense a second time. _ :

The Bible tells us to honor thy Father
and thy Mother that thy days may be pro=
longed upon the earth which the Lord

thy God giveth thee. This is perhaps the .

explanation why the men and women 0
the Confederacy came through the haz-
ardous days of the Reconstruction Era
with what now appears to have been the
protection of Divine providence.

As we wander back along the wind-
ing lanes of memory, and as we read the
pages of the story of strife of 1861-1865,
as we think of the North and the South
in their respective spheres, we are re-
minded of the words of the poet:

One ship drives. east and another drives
west,
While the self-same breezes blow}
Its the set of the sails and not the gales
That bids them where to go.
Like the winds of the seas are the wae
of the fates,
As we voyage along through life;
Its the set of the soul that decides the
goal,
and not the storms or the strife,
