Recently deceased. Mr. Walsh was a founder of our society and was vice-president for Georgia. He had been a United States senator from that state, and was editor and publisher of the Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle, one of the leading dailies of the South. The article here given is a condensation of an address delivered by him a few years ago at Nashville, on “Irish-American Day” at the Tennessee Exposition.
