Book Description
Excerpt from Parke County in the World War: A List of Its Soldiers, Sailors, and Marines, Compiled From Official Records and From as Complete Research as Possible; Portraits of Its Gold Star Men and Over Six Hundred Pictures of Soldiers, Sailors and Marines Then came a swift and sure change in senti ment. It instantly sprang up when Germany an nounced the intention of resuming unrestricted submarine operations. The protests of the President and the announcement of our purpose to meet force with force met with the unqualified endorsement of at. Least three-fourths of our peo ple. But there was a sullen and for a time out spoken minority against war, and this feeling persisted even after war was declared. And here I intend to tell a truth - a very gratifying truth - that is due the children of those who were Southern sympathizers during the Civil War, or were not wholeheartedly in favor of the administration of that war. I do not know of one family in all Parke County which had borne the stigma of disloyalty during the Union war, and for years thereafter, that was in any way not in sympathy with the Gov ernment in the German war. Over all others, if possible, these people were zealous and uncom promising in their support of everything directly or indirectly connected with winning the war. An incident. 'will illustrate this fact. A war meeting was to be held in the very neighbor hood to which the Home Guards were called dur ing the Civil War. It was under the direction of a descendant of those who were charged with the outbreak at that time. This man had come to Rockville to get a speaker and make arrange ments for the meeting. He wanted Company B to come, and when told that this might not be possible, with great earnestness he urged: But, Captain, you must come! Some of the peo ple up there don't know we are in a war. Vve've got to wake them up! And so it may be said of this class of our citizenship that to whatever extent the charge of disloyalty made against their fathers fifty years ago and long after wards might have been true, not a Copperhead, so far as I know, could be found among them from the day war was declared on through to the last. I have in mind one whose girlhood was em bittered by the social ostracism in icted on the families of southern sympathizers. \vith all the zeal of her singularly intense nature she was devotedly patriotic. When it appeared that our young men were not responding to the call as their fathers did in '61 she said in an address to the people of Parke County.
