We want to see all the old soldiers with their wives and children, we want to see the fathers, mothers, brothers and sisters of those who fell in battle, on the march, in the hospital, and on the tented field, and now lie sleeping in the Sunny South. We want to rejoice together that we have a united country, enjoying all the blessings of peace.
