Excerpt from Address at the Unveiling of the Confederate Monument, at Raleigh, N. C., May 20th, 1895 I salute you with unfeigned emotion, my countrymen and countrywomen, upon the return of this historic day which you have assembled here to reconsecrate by a new act of piety and patriotism. It marks an epoch in our annals. It is indeed a monumental day, and one upon which the women of North Carolina, who have wrought long and unceasingly, and have waited for its dawning, may reverently repeat the words of the Psalm ist and say, This is the day which the Lord hath made, we will rejoice and be glad in it. A year ago, in the presence of thronging thousands, and with imposing ceremonies which were crowned by splendid oratory, you laid the corner-stone of this structure, which now, in finished beauty, stands senti nel in the western gateway of your Capitol.
