 A group honoring Civil War veterans marks Memorial Day weekend with ceremonies at historic cemeteries throughout the Northampton area, carrying on an 88-year-old tradition. Every year, members of ''M'' Company of the Sons of Veterans Reserve of the Civil War honor the fallen soldiers by dressing in period uniforms and carrying out military drills. This group has come to our church every year since we have been members. This picture was taken this morning in our cemetery. Note the trumpet player off in the distance to the right, who played taps after the Gettysburg Address had been recited.
