war. The public buildings, the hetels, !
the stores and all the private dwellings
were decorated from garnet to cellar.
The arrival of the train from the
south brought few more to swell our
ranks. The cars einptied, the boys
formed, and led by the band marched
to camp, east through the Main street
the side walks lined by the the citi-

tastcfully decorated with evergreens.
Arrived in camp we found a beunti-
full dinner of bareback, cold meat, co.,
fee and beans prepared by cook l.. Il.
Deckrow. The boys pronounced the
beans delicious. Our cook outdid
himself at every meal till the camp
broke up.
The afternoon found us unprepared
to carry out the regulation pro-
gr..,me, so our clever President Par
mater got up one to the satisfaction CT
all present. The camp was organized
by appointing Capt. j. s. Andrews,
officer of the day; Comrade Newman,
officer of the guard, and Comrade
Crowel sergeant of the guard. The
guard mounted, the veterans and peo-

Gus. The dead comrade was carried to
the cemetery. Comrade Palmer read
the service in a very impressive man
ner, the firing party did their duty,
and the remains were laid away in the
grave till the resurrection. The scene
was touching one, there were but few
dry eyes.

The boys arrived in Grayling just be-
fore noon. As soon as the train stop
ped we felt the air filed with the inspi-
mtion Of the occasion. A fine band
with crowd of people from the town
and surrounding country covered the
platform. The pleasant faces of the
citizens with sprinkling of veterans
of the Marvin Post here and there
told us before we saw the handsome
banner spanning Main street with

He Saw his Shadow.

The traditional Ground Hog came
out to-day at noon ESQ we are told)
and saw his shadow, so look out for
squalls. The old time version of the
legend is, that the ground hog or wood
chuch, an animal that passes the win
ter in lethargic state in its burrow
under ground, sallies forth at noon on
this day. Should the day be clesr and
the sun shine.brightly, so that be can
see his shadow, he returns to his hole
and remains in his retirement for forty
days. This is accepted as an augury
of forty days of inclement weather.
If on the contrary the day is cloudy,
so that he cannot see his shadaw, clear
weather is predicted and the ground
hog stays above the ground.
