 The Story of Pas-sam-a-ri Por a harvest tar more golden, Par more lasting than the sluices. Thus it was our fathers found it. Bui with good there came the evil. Worthless scoundrels, daring rascals. Proth and scum cl all the mountains. Gathered here to prey like vultures. On the efforts of the hardy. On the manhood of the worker. On the pioneer who builded. • • Here, today, we pass In safety Up and down our peaceful valley. Fearing not for life or riches. Glad to meet an unknown traveler. Hot so in the days departed; There were then highways of danger. Trails where lurked an unknown peril. Honor to the Vigilantes. To the men who saw before them Such a mammoth duty looming Such a thankless, galling duty! On. the debt we owe these true men They who made our courts and statutes Peers of any in the nation! When each day brought forth new terrors ♦ Duty saw they, and performed it; Vigilant they stood, and ready. Always sure before they acted. Sure before, upon a doorway Of the guilty, thev inscribed there The dread symbol, which we now see On the Vigilante Highway Honor to the Vigilantes! Yet. remember, oh ye children. Blessed children of Pas-sam-a-ri. Always, every where, forever. Human change is part ol progress; One success demands another; Cycle after cycle follows. Grieve not for the days departed; Good they were, they served their purpose. Buc the days now here and coming. Bach one fraught with life and promise. Bach one better than the other— They are yours to do and dare with— Golden do they pass before you. Will you meet them and accept them? With their problems and their trials? With their joys and their temptations? Are yon vigilant and Teady? Are you sure and swift and honest? Wi l you face your duties squarely As of ola the Vigilantes Paceu the menace and the terrors. Brought us happiness and quiet. Brought us honor in the nation— Here within our Pleasant Valley In uie Valley of Pas-sam-a-ri. —E. M. D.
