“They will be remembered as we knew them in the full freshness and vigor of
their young manhood. And as the years roll on and the seasons come and go,
each evening the school will gather here for its few minutes of worship,
prayer, and praise. And each morning some will be here to celebrate the great
sacrifice which carries with it the hope of the world. Then in the words of the poet
Laurence Binyon—
May they rest in peace and may perpetual light shine upon them.”
— Samuel S. Bartlett
