Band, Of this place. which was the post
band for the encampment. The boys all
report a splendid time, and from all that
we can learn many Of them left their
hearts, as well as their spare change in
Harper's Ferry. For be it known, the
Catholic Church had a fair going on dur
ing the week of the encampment, and az
the young ladies we're just too sweet and
charming for an ytbing, our poor boys sur
rendered unconditiOnally, lea wing the last
cent they had with these Low ely witches
of Harpsrs Ferry. But then, it was for
the church. and as Jim. Bsuserman, Harry
Campbell, Ash. Dyssrt, Bob. Anderson
and all the rest say, those girls were
angels, nothing but angels, and smile
from one Of them would sweeten all the
coffee used during the encampment." We
are glad to say that our boys left splen-
did record behind Oh EN- and that they will
be gladly welcomed back again. On the
morning of their departure they were
drawn up 10 line and addressed by Mayor
Ames. of Harper's Ferry, who compliment
ed them upon their gentlemanly conduct
and department and said that he and his
people would be glad to have them re-
turn as often as possible. Capts. Baker
and Milton replied in their usual happy
and eloquent style, and The soldier boys
parted from their Harper's Ferry friends
with the recollections that will last
through a life time. To Col. Geo. Ora

Mr.. EDITOR We notice in the last
weeks HERALD, that a man by the name
Of II. B. Eaton, was arrested on the New
River railroad, and the HERALD says that
the man Is a thief and frau as there il
no such man from this county. The
HERALD is mistaken in this matter, az
Mr.. Eaton was born and raised at this
place, and always bore q good reputation.
He was considered an honest man, and
none who knew him believes that he was
trying 10 steal from the car, but as the
car no doubt was marked for place tc
which be was going his object was to gel
inside and beat his way over the road
This is the opinion of everybody who
know Mr.. Eaton, and We think the
HERALD has done the man an injustice in
publishing this report without first find
ing out the facts.
There viii be a Harrison and Morton
pole raised at this place on Saturday,
September 9Th, 1883. Everybody is IN
vited TO come. There will be several
prominent speakers present who will DIS
cuss the issues Of the day. Good bands
will also be on hand 10 enliyen things
with their music. b.
THE HERALD did not publish the &C.
count Of Mr.. Eatons arrest without first
trying to ascertain the facts. We first
secured information from what we
thought reliable sources, that no such
man had ever lived in the county, before
we published the article IN question. We
regret that our informants should have
been mistaken, and hope that Mr. Eaton's
case 10 no worse than his Quiekbburg
friends believe.-ED.
