PROCEEDING TO BUSINESS.
After a social reunion, Major Camp called
the meeting to order. he then stated the OBJ
ject of the mepting, explaining that officers
we're 10 be elected with view to consum-
mating permanent organization, and to
hold annual reUnions. He com
mended the old patriots for
attending in so large numbers
and for not falling to bring their wives.
Tie sincerely hoped that bringing the wives
would Toe feature which shall characterize
each recurring reunion. 1t is, he said, to be
simply reunion for a good time. No formal
programme has been arranged, and It Is not
necessary that one should be arranged. The
more Informal ana jolly the better. No one
remembers more vivilly IN N do | that
was oft times the thankful rccipie ut Of hard
tack and coffee from your store, boys, when
was hungry In the south, aud / wish To ac-
knowledge my gratitude, aud repay you for
those fSyors. have arranged 10 give you a
banquet at the West hotel. which will occur
az half past two to-day. l want YOU all tn be
there, and to enjoy yourselves without re-
strsint.
THE MAJOR AGAIN.
After committee on permanent organiza-
ton had been appointed Mai Camp, the
King OF the day, was again called out. He
made happy and timely speech, aud was
quite frequently applauded. He referred TO
incidents Of the war, and said be had been
an unrelcuting and severe officer. He had
insisted that orders should be obeyed
His regime was OF the strictest kind, yet
when the boys were furnishing for food he
lad given them the fullest liberties and
foraging was the order. He had paid atten-
ton in detail TO providing his men with all
possible comforts, and he believed they fully
appreciated il, aud so far Ms the BANQUET was
concerned he rated II as small aud insig-
nidcant in conn arison with the generous
favors which he had enjoyed in the field from
the hands of his generous, big hearted regu-
lars.
THE CHAPLAIN.
Lauren Armsby, the chaplain OF the regi-
ment was especially beloved by all his old
comrades. The reunion would have lost It's
charm for them had be not
been with them. He was sent
for at his new home in Kansas. and he
journeyed hither to meet the boys whom be
had encouraged in days of darkness and
foreboding and to whom be had given moral
food and scriptural teachings. He was loudly
called for and he responded. He is q gray
haired patriarch about sixty or sixty-6ye
years Of age, and when be arose from his
seat bis counteaance beamed with smiles.
He referred humorously first to incidents
during the hardships incident TO camn life
and the fatigues of long and rapid marches.
he also related incidents in which Surgeon
Murphy went out on a buffalo hunt and re-
turned without game and badly disabled
the story was received with manifest rel
ish by the old veterans. He paid a hi0h
compliment 10 the material which comnosed
the Eighth. They were not men who Joined
the army for mere excitement, but were men
who had families and homes, and who fought
for the preservation Of their country.
Surgeon Murphy was the next speaker.
Ills addresses are always happy. and be kent
his auditors in perpetual lauy hter.
