N PLANTING this tree, we are in 11. way l'l'0t'i'lllg 1,1 llllllllllllltllt to one of the bravest of the hrave. For what more can a lllilll do than lay down his life in upholding a. p1'i11.1-iple. Gabriel De Fahbio well knew, as we learn fi.-11111 l1is letters the risk l1e was running in facing the Mexicans on the horder. Yet he cheerfully rain that risk at. the cost of his young life, dying happy in the thought that he had gave his last full nieasure of devotion for his countiivis interests. It is with a. iningled feeling of sorrow and- pride that we dedi- eate this tree to his nieniory. We sympathize with and condole the parents of this noble youth in tl1eir hereavenient. Yet we feel proud to think that Batavia in years past has produced her sons to go forth in defense of the gorgeous eiuhleni of the republic. The question presents itself to us. Who is an American? Is he a. New England Puritan? Is he a Virginian Cavalier? ls he a western frontiersnian? The ancestors of so111e of us fought. for in- dependence and handed down a. nation free from tyranny and oppres- sion. They gave us a government of tl1e people, by the people and for the people. They were Aniericans. The fathers and grand- fathers of some of us laid at the altar of their country tl1e sacrifice of their young lives for the preservation of that 11a.tio11. They s-a.ved the Union of States for 11s. Tl1ey were Americans. To-day we plant a meniorial to one, who first saw the light of freedom on a foreign soilg one w11ose ancestors and ideals were for- eign to usg one who appreciated tl1e spirit of American freedom under lawful restraints and made it his. Thus he died preserving the integrity of the Hag. He was an American.
