evening of May "a, being the 18th anniversary
OF the departure of that regiment for the seat

of whom had come long distance Among
the number was Gen. Felix Angus, Of BaIti-

OF the veterans for the attention shown them
upon their visit to Baltimore in June. 1852.
Col. A. ;. Marvin, formerly Adjutant of the
regiment, and now treasurer of the Veteran
Association, who was Assistant Adiutant-Gen-
eral on Gen. Warrcn's staff when in command
of the Fifth Corps, was presented with hand
some g0ld-headed cane by COmrade Finley on
behalf of the association. As the evening wore
on the Reunion drifted into a GAR Campfire,
and speeches were made, stories told and remin-
iscenes related. which called to mind the
camp, march or battles of a quarter Of q century
ago; and the hearts Of the comrades grew young
again under the inspiration of meeting those
with whom they had stood shoulder TO shout
der in the conflict to sustain the Union Many
OF those present met for the first since the mus
ter-out Of the regiment and their expressions
of hearty recognition plainly showed that the
lapse of time had only made the love for COM

Prisoners Of War met in convention at Odd Fell

called the convention to order. Reports were
read and regular business transacted. A num-
Der of efforts have been made to consolidate
this organization with similar one in this
State known as the Ohio Association, and the
subject was brought up. Considerable discus
sion was INDUCED in, and it was finally decided
to appoint committee of two, in conjunction
with the President, to confer with the Ohio
Association at their next meeting with the view
of consolidating the two organizations. Officers
were elected for the ensuing year as follows:

June j, 1885,.
Lovely May, fragrant with bud and blossom,
bringinRtO every loyal heart the tender memo
ries which come swelling up from the past as
we remember the days of 1861 to 1000, has
ripened into another June. As Memorial Day
this year fell on Sunday, it seems TO have
given double conservation to that holy day.
Lot US hope that as the W.R-C. united with
the GAR. in all the services peculiar TO the
day, they gathered fresh inspiration to prose-
cute our specific work with renewed courage
and zeal.
The long list of General Orders issued by the
several Department Presidents each containing
most excellent instructions regarding our work
on Memorial Day, impresses us as chain OF
wonderful expressions, every one link com
posed of eloquent thoughts expressed in choic-
est language, aud all breathing a spirit of 10y
atty TO the living veterans as well as grateful
remembrances of the fallen braves. So may
we continue to prove by our works as well as
words our devotion to God and country.
While floods of letters regarding the services
Of Memorial Day, and asking advice as to Corps
work in connection with il, kept the National
President busy, yet she found time to prepare
an address, which she gave on the evening OF
Memorial Day before T.. Z. Carpenter Post, No.
81, ct Peterborough, Mass, q large audience
having assembled st the Town Hall. The Post
and Corps from Walpole, six miles away, were
also present, so that there was the inspiration
of such large number Of the old veterans, and
the weather simply perfect and | think more
people took part in the services all over our
State than ever before, except, perhaps, the first
year.
The dedicatory exercises Of the burial lot of
the Soldiers Home at Chelsea passed of to the
satisfaction of the ladies interested and the read
ing of Mrs. Sherwood's poem by Past Depart
ment Commander George III. Patch brought
tears to the eyes of the veterans present. Gen.
