old like me, and | can't expect to have
her come and see me. My eyesight is
failing, and the comfort that l get from
books is nearly gone. Have often read
my daughters books liked them very
much, they were so natural but could
she have thought so much Of her poor

CIEcINNATI, May l3 At a secret
session Of the Grand Army Of the
Republic, yesterday afternoon, ques-
ton arose whether delegates from
States in arrearages for dues TO the Ma

the floor. Illinois and Missouri we're in
this predicament Ia the course Of the
debate Nj. Davis, of Illinois, said he had
no apology to give, nor favors 70 ask, but
that he would either come here with full
rights or not at all. He spoke for three
posts in Chicsgo. Although they had
beaa neglected. inIheir duties gel, during
the pssL year, they had Taisei Twelve thou
sand dollars and supported the widows

The arrearage test was promptly dropped.
