BOYS IN GRAY MARCH IN PARADE Veterans of the Confederay Braved ain anid Wind to 3Iirch in Annual Parade. Richmond, Va., J u'ne 3.-Veterans of the Confederacy today braved wind and rain to march through the streets of Richmond in a military pageant and to lay the cornerstone of a mon uient to Gcn. Thomas .1. (Stoncwall) Jackson as the closing event of their 25th annual reunion. Nearly 6,000 wearers of the gray, flanked by the militia of Virginia and thousands of men and women repre senting Southern civic societies, marched again to the strains of war time music, bared their heads to the statue of Jefferson Davis and sounded the "rebel yell" as they passed the giant equestrian statue of Gen. Rob ert E. Lee. Tribute was paid to Gen. Jackson when the veterans gathered at the end of historic lonument avenue to par ticipate in laying a cornerstone of an equestrian statue to his memory. The site is beyond the heroic memoria.l to Jefferson Davis, president of the Con federacy, also monuments to Gen. Lee -and Gen. J. E. B. Stuart. MaJ. Wil lam A. Anderson, formerly attorney general of Virginia, delivered the ad dress. The ceremony took place in a downpour of rain. ,The monument will be erected at a cost of $30,000 which sum wvas Jointly contributed by scohol children and patriotic societies of the South, the legislature of Virginia and the city of Richmond. The military pageant was an inspir ing event, notwithstanding the weath er, which caused its postponement for several hours. Veterans of the Con federacy, with heads erect, were greeted with constant cheers along the line of march. Rivaling veterans for honors of the (lay were the Rich mond Light Infantry Blues and their guests, the company of the Governor's Foot Guards of Connecticut. Two military balls brought the so cial side of the reunion to a close. An interesting feature of the closing events was the reproduction of the Battle of the Crater. There was an elaborate fireworks display. in which companies of the Virginia Grays par ticipated, reproducing with realistic effect the Battle of the Crater which occui.:red at Petersburg, Va., June 30, 18G4. 00a * 0 0 0 0 0 0 0*0 * W.
