THE REV. RANDOLPH H. McKlM, 1904 ORATION Ladies and Gentlemen, Comrades and Fellow-citizens: It is with deep emotion that I rise to address you I look over this vast concourse of the brave men andthe noble women of the South — representing every oneof the eleven sovereign States once associated in the South-ern Confederacy — and when I look into the faces of theveteran survivors of that incomparable army that foughtwith such magnificent valor and constancy for four long yearsunder those tattered battle flags, now furled forever, I amoverwhelmed at once by the dignity and the difficulty ofthe task assigned me. There is such a vast disproportionbetween the powers which the occasion demands and thosewhich I possess, that I should not dare to essay the task butfor my confidence in your generosity and forbearance toa speaker
