(Li}t iHrmnrtal O atnttay ME MORIAL (jATEWAY, at the entrance to the Campus, is to be erected by the Alumni and Friends to the memor of the heroes of Washington and Lee, who entered the Service for the World War. This gateway will be const ructed of granite, limestone and brick. Its base will rest on a great jjranite block, the main columns rising from this are made of britk, tiiese will bear bronze plates on which will be inscribed the names; this is topped by limestone blocks surmounted by an iron lamp. The main column is over seventeen feet high, the driveway distance is twenty-four feet and the distance between the smaller columns for the pedestrians is between five and six feet. These smaller columns are of limestone. The whole makes up a very attracti e and impressive monument. lime heals most things, yet not even Time can quite wholly efface the tender memory we have of our men who threw aside all selfish thoughts and concentrated themselves to service in the gigantic battle which the world v aged for the Liberty of Humanity. So quietl ' they went, et with eagerness, not blindly, but with eyes fixed on that one goal--to ;a e a startled world from slavery. Each one a man ' s man, in arious walks of life, et having one souls-side common to them all, tlie capacity for nobility and ' •acririce. Some died as we would have them die, fighting for Right, faces to the Foe, trusting God, and no man can name the burdens borne nor any man forget. And :.o our reverence and gratitutle pr(jmpts us to erect this Memorial, our love too for their memory. Line that Hows cm through the ears, ever widening and deep- ing as it flows.
