Excerpt from The Martyr's Return Over half a century has passed since the Civil War came to a close - that war in which brother stood against brother for a few dreadful years, only to unite in the bonds of love which nothing on earth can break now, that war which shook from end to end the Nation for whose preservation it had begun. Not many remain of the brave veterans who would gladly have given, they too, their lives for the sake of their cause. General Hazard is one of the last of the comrades. None knows better than he what dangers the country faced in the early sixties and safely passed under the guiding hand of the martyred Presi dent, and none knows better than he what dangers still await the noble Na tion, not merely dangers of war but also perils of peace. Who in this enlightened age can say that peace is even more peril ous than war? Who but General Hazard - for he is a prophet as well as veteran. He has been wounded in battles of arms, and he has been scathed and matured by the battles of life. He has seen the world from all sides.
