Because of extremely inclement weather
last Wednesday the reunion Of the Eastern
Ohio veterans was practically a failure in
the daytime, but when it came to holding
the campfire at night it was found that
the soldier boys were out in force and the
people of Steubenville were still filled
with the fire of patriotism. The crowd
at the opera house was not even limited to
the capacity of the building, for it was
necessary to hold an Overflowe meeting at
CARROTS hall, where fully five hundred,
who had been unable to gain admission to
the opera house, assembled TO listen to
speeches, songs and other interesting fea-
lures of the programme, which was re-
heated there for their entertainment. a
hack was kept constantly in motion be,
tween the two places. conveying the
speakers from the opera house to the hall
as soon as they had finished ut the former
place. After all their misfortune in the
wav of bad weather, the managers of the
affair succeeded in making a success OF 1t.
Our soldier boys are always sure OF 4
