These Were Men Who

By The Simple Manhood

Of Their Lives,

By Their Strict Adherence

To The Principals Of Right,

By Their Sublime Courage

And Unspeakable Sacrifices,

Even To The Heroism Of Death,

Have Preserved For Us.

Through the Gloom Of Defeat,

A Priceless Heritage Of Honor.

In The War Path Of Might,

Shall Yet Be A Rock In

The Temple Of Right."
