Excerpt from Indiana's Roll of Honor, Vol. 1 Were this Government destroyed by the hands of her own misguided and infatuated children, it would be the deadliest blow that has ever been given to the cause of virtue, and the greatest obstruction that has ever happened to the onward march of civil and religious liberty. Unto America are turned the anxious eyes of all nations, to see the result of the experiment we are now making of popular self-government, and of the ability of a free people to sustain the Government of their own choice. From this land, consecrated to freedom by the blood of our fathers, goes forth the only ray of hope to cheer the fainting heart of the oppressed nations of the earth. Shall this ray, now so dim and flickering, be totally extinguished? Destroy this Government, and what becomes of the fair genius of liberty which has been driven out from older climes? Is she, broken-hearted, doomed to be an out cast' in the land of her adoption? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Gold Star Honor Roll: A Record of Indiana Men and Women Who Died in the Service of the United States and the Allied Nation in the War, 1914 1918 "The Stars shine bright in fields of blue; They light the way where row on row Is marked the resting place of you Who peaceful sleep where poppies grow.
