The first thing done after the veterans had greeted each other was the holding of a business meeting, at which the president of the asso- citation, Perry P. Wilson of Putnam, pre- sided. In an informal discussion of the mat. ter of designating the position the regiment had at the field of Gettysburg by the erec- tion of a memorial tablet, Colonel Coggswen made speech advocating some such action, and he also said that tablet could be erect ed fer $500, or one could be erected costing $5,000.
 A committee consisting of Surgeon John B. Lewis of Hartford, Lieutenant Colonel William S. Coggswell of Brooklyn and Col onel George D. Chapman of Middletown were annointed to make inquiries as to the best and most practical means of marking the spot occupied by the regiment.
 Officers were elected for next year as fol- lows: President, Captain William M. Mix of Wallingford; secretary and treasurer, Cap tain E. E. Marvin of Hartford. Middletown was selected as the place of the next re- union.
 After the business meeting the veterans adjourned to the Hotel Converse and among

CANCER OF THE TONGUE.

A Case Resembling That of Gen. Grant. Some ten years ago I had scrofulous sore on my right hand which gave me great trouble, and under the old time treatment healed up, but it had only been driven into the system by the use of pot ash and mercury and in March, 1882 it broke out in my throat and concentrated in what some of the doctors called cancer, eating through my cheek, destroying the palate and under lip entirely and half my tongue, eating out to the top of my left cheek bone and up to the left eye. could not eat any solid food, but subsisted on liquids, and my tongue was so far gone that could not talk. Such was my wretched. helpless condition the nrst of last October QS84, when my friends commenced giving me Swift's Specific. In Less than a month the eating places stopped and healing commenced, and the fear ul aperture in ny cheek has been closed and firmly knitted together. A process of 8 new under lip is progressing finely. and the tongue winch was almost destroyed is being recovered, and it seems that nature is supply ing new tongue I can talk so that my friends can readily understand me, and can also eat solid food again. If any doubt these facts would refer them to Hon. John H. Trayler, State Senator of this district and to Dr. T. s. Bradfeld of LaGrange, Ga,
