Tho memorial services at the Presbyterian church on Sunday evening were well attended by a large number, the church being filled to its tit most eupaeitv. The singing by the choir was very fine and the discourses of the were also good. Rev. T. J.

Whitiakcr spoke first and was followed by an address by Rev. J. Williams. Botb addresses were well adapted to the honor of the brave boys ami a fitting memorial to the umr who left home and all that wuti Me to them and fought to save their country from destruction. The exercises were closed by the "America" by the congregation, after which Rev.

Williams pronounced the benediction: Never since the time when the God Kiven custom of Memorial was first established hay the sun shone upon a more beautiful day during which the heroes and the sons of heroes might drop ono of nature's blossoms upon the graves of their departed brothers and speak a word of kindness in their memory and in memory the trials ot a nation which they fought so bravely to subdue. This custom of observing memorial day is a grand one and should be instilled into the minds of the youths of to-day thai they and their children's children dowd to the end of time might never forget to honor the brave by continuing a custom established so long ago. encouraging not only to the heroes of the war but also to their wives, children and hosts of friends who tire permitted to live a life of and happiness as a result of their bravery. His remarks were followed by a rem tation by Claudo Wright boy of unusual ability in this ilimrition. The recitation was a recital of a thrilling battle scene and was presented with the energy of a master, taking tho "boys in blu back to the fight once more.

Master Wright's bit was received with a most hearty applause of which it was fully deserving 0-lee Club then rendered more ot tbeir excellent niurjic after which came the reading of the memorial by Geo. Hollands. He spoke as fojjows: "Mr. President, Coisiraiiesand this country lost no time in becoming an adopted citizen and responded to his country's call when he saw peril, ho was a true and loyal citizen and faithful soldier. He also was an invalid for many years previous me dies and Gentlemen: It to that the most painful ami duty of this occasion lias fallen upoa me, that of calling to memory the names oL those our comrades who have during the past year responded to the sound of the last reveille and been ordered to muster on the other side of the river of deaUi where God himself will be their supreme commander.

Just year ago to-day we were as sembled together here on lite ocea sion to this. During the year previous to that time three of our comrades haa been summoned from our ranks by Death; ana during the year past six of our number have answered to the same call. Thus you see, comrades, that the mortality timong the to hia death. The following day after the death ot Comrade Sheridan occurred the death of Comrade llenry W. Langley.

A. B. Flags throughout the place were hung at half mast and of the business places were handsomely decorated. Throughout the day everything was and orderly, an honor to tbe day and a blessing to the people. The officers of the day were as follows: President of the Day, Miles Hawley.

Vice President R. M. Tuttle Orator Rev. Dr. R.

Houghton Marshal N. M. Urane Memorialist George Hollands Roll of Honor Geo. H. At about half-past ten Post Doty formed a line of march and headed by the German Band, which discoursed fxcellent music, they slowly wended tbeir wav to the gravesides of their dear departed that they once acain be honored and remembered.

The exerciser at the cemetery were short but impressive. They consisted of a dirge by the band after which followed the funeral sevices of the Post. Tbe club followed with a selection after which the chaplain rasde a few remarks. Then came the decorating of the graves of the fallen comrades which was the close of the services, "While all stood around and watched the flowers as they fell upon the graves there was ono grave which was noticeable above all the others, and as a crown is placed upon the head so was a wreath placed around this grave. Fresh garlands had been strewn upon all but this one seemed to receive better attention and have a thicker covering of nature's beauties than the rest.

It was the grave of one whom we all loyed, respected and admired. The one who especially was a fnend to both rich and poor a-td through whose tender kindness both at home and on the battle field many a valuable life has been saved to bless and honor him of which honor and blessing he was fully deserving. You have already guessed the one of whom we are speaking as it was the grave of our lamented friend and fellow brother in life Dr. Joe W.Robinson At the conclusion of the exercises at the cemetery the brave boys marched down and disbanded. At one p.

m. a line of march headed by band was formed in the following order: Post Doty G. A Baheock Hook and Ladder A O. lodge, and countermarched by file left down Broad street to Loder; to Erie up Erie Ave. to Main; to Hakes to Genesee to Seneca, to Main; to bridge; counter march to Union; to Park street; to Canisteo; to Main; to Broad.

Thence to the opera house where one of the given best memorial services that ever was held this place. Hardly standing room could be ob' tamed except in tbe second gallery and all who had made an effort to witness the ceremonies were more than repaid for the pains which they had taken. foUom: programme was an by Chiphfa Flag," by the club which fur ere many years shall have passed away the "Sons of the Veterans'' will have to take the place of the Grand Army of the Republic tbe commemoration of these memorial day services. The first one of our number who died since last memorial day wa comrade Augustus Wells, who en listed in August 1SG2 in company of the 141st N. and was hon orably discharged on tne 14th day June 1865.

He served his countr faithfully and honorably for nearly three years. He passed through many severe engagements, was wounded in the left hip at the battl of Ressaca and was an invalid for many years previous to his death which occurred on Dec. 7th, 138C. The next to respond to the death call waa our esteemed and belovec comrade Dr. J.

W. Robinson who en tered into the army in March 1S62 as assistant surgeon of the 82nd N. Vots. In the month of June 1SC2 he was taken prisoner in what known as the seven days light before Richmond and for some little time had to endure the suffering and privations of Life in Libby Prison. In August 1862 he was promoted to surgeon of the 141st N.

Y. Vols. for meritorious conduct at tlie Battle Fair Oaks, in which capacity he sf rvod until June 1803. During this time he filled the positions of Brigade and Division surgeon and received high compliments from his superiors for bravery on the field and his skill as a surgeon. In June 1863 he resigned his commission and returned home remaing until May 1864 when he returned to the army and was commissioned as surgeon of the 179th N.Y, Vols.

in which capacity ho served until the clos' 1 of the war. He was breveted Lt. Col. for meritorious conduct and was honorably discharged on the Sth day of June 1865. He died January 4th, 1887.

By the death of.Dr. J. W. Robinson the soldiers lost a sympathetic and kind hearted friend. Probably no man in all this section extended more sympathy and aid to the poor and distressed soldiers than did Dr.

W. Robinson. In accordance with his own request he was buried with military honors hy Post Doty GKA.R. Following the death of Comrade Robinron was that of Comrade A. D.

Barrett which occurred on the Sth day of 1887. Comrade Barrett enlisted in August 1S62 in the 130th N. Vols. and was afterwards transferred to the 19th N. Y.

Cavalry, better known as-the 1st N. Y. Dragoons, was honorably discharged in June 1865. He participated in the battles of the Wilderness, the battle of Winchester and many other minor engagements. He was known to hare been a very efficient soldier ana was up to the time of his death, very on thusiastic in regard to keeping up a social interest among tho old soldiers and seldom, if ever, failed to be present at the reunion of his regiment which occurs at Portage each year.

The next to leave us was Comrade J. Sheridan, He enlisted in November 1853 in the 3rd Haw heavy Artillery and was discharged on the 18th day of Sept. 1865. died on the Stnd day of Apr.) 1987. Comrade Sheridan altbouffh not of I was finally taken prisoner by Mosby's Cayalry on October 28th 180-1 and wa-i 1 confined in Libby prison until Feb'y.

lit Ib'JS, When released he was in a terribly emaciated condition. From tlio effects of this prison life lie never recovered, he was honorably discharged July 19 18G5 and died Mav 21st 1887. This comprises the list the ex- soldiers that we know of who nave died in Hornellsville during the past year and whoso names will hereafter appear upon the roll of honor. Com rades our numbers are rapidly diminishing, you can easily eee ihe necessity of keeping our ranks well closed up ready to look after each others welfare as much as possible while living. Let us cherish in oui hearts the memory of those of our comrades who have fallen and ever strive to inculcate mto the minds and hearts of the rising generation the principles for which they fell.

The reading of the memorial was followed by the reading of the Roll of Honor by Geo. H. Dore. Music was then furnished by the Glee Chib after which Miss Minnie Alden read in a most appropriate manner the following piece of poetry written expressly for the occasion by Mr. A.

T. AlliR of this city. THE ORATION by Rev. Dr. Ross Hougntou followed the reading of the above poem.

Dr. Hough tun is a man of unusual ability and his oration was neypr surpassed OD an occasion of this kind in thia city. It was as one might say an eloquent, yet hasty sketch of the bis tory of tbe nation, a talk of its perils and a bit of advice to both old and young. The terrible scenes of the re bellion were caref-illy pictured and written upon the minds of his hearers as upon ot stone He is a man of excellent delivery ana to the ora tion -we are wholly unable to do justice as nothing but the whole of it would Suflice. Extracts would only bo a temptation and if it is possible we will try and furnish our readers with it.

The oration wns followed by music by the band whujh closed excrcisfs of the day. It is not fitting that we omit a little ncident which occurred in the morn ng before the commencement of the exercises. There is not a more watch ul or thoughtful organization around than that of the Doty Relief Corp; They had noticed that the flag which he Post was in the habit of carrying parade day was somewhat worn ind thought it not out of place to pre this branch of the Grand Army with a token their respect and es- eem, accordingly before the labors of he day had hardly commenced, tbe members of tbe Doty Relief Corps, without a word of warning to the 'ost quickly presented them with a andsome and valuable silk flag ost Doty carried it on parade yeater- and with it they seemed greater ictors tban ever, and they were for bey haye gained a' woman's love. 'he many wards of praise which were ent up only made the ladies more rateful and all.sent up the words, 'All honor to the Doty Relief Corps." Thus were the exercises of the day, truly fitting memorial and honor to he brave never was given and with "many a cup of kindness 1 all hope that many many more memorial days as pleasant and beautiful and accompanied with as interesting and touching ceremonies as the one that has just passed, may yet take place and that they, tho brave boys may be spared many long years to come to share in conducting tbe memorial ob servancee.
