M

y memory turns, lovingly, to days of long ago,

When the figure of a soldier walh:ed the streets I used to know: When, in full appreciation of the men who fought and died, We paid tl'ibute to the living, thru the hero, Genel'al Hyde, 'Twas but scanty reco~ition of that wealth of mind and heart And the heritage of honor that his sons now bear, apart; For the name bas lost no glory in these days of aftermath, Standing forth, for high achievement, in the dear old home in Bath. To the man, wbo's herewith pictured, there's a debt of honor high; For his father's flag is flying, where it has a right to f1yO'er the ships, to fight our battles, o'er the decl.:s we call our own; Bllilt in Worl{S that be's conducting, in the place that he calls home. lIe's been honored by the people, in countless ways and kind; In the House and Senate, served them, with an honest heart and mind; But the service that confronts him, is to heed the people's call"Keep the fiag upon the ocean; nevel' let the Ensi~ fall."
