In case that publicly calls into

one of our citizens as did the letter of
Gen. Hammond in last weeks STAR.
and in matter of SO much of gener-
al character, we deem it but right that
space should be given for reply:1Edl

Hammond" / will venture to assume
the privilege of answering the said let
ter. Hammond wasa member Of the
soldiers home committee, appointed at
the fourth annual Encampment G.. A.
r., held at Jamestown in March 1927.
The said committee was created for
the purpose Of examining the various
points in the territory, and report at
the next Encampment the best place in
their judgement for the location of
soldiers home. The committee did re-
por. but the report was, that the mat
ter be postponed an other year and the
committee continued. All the mem.
bers of the committee Hammond, Lang
ley and James signed the ercport, as can
be seen by referring to page 81 of the
proceedings of the 9Th Annual En-
campment, held at Redfeld, In that
report the following language occurs:
"Thc time has not vet arrived, nor has
the subject been sufficiently investigat-
ed by the committee to determine the
proper location" After this report
was adopted, at my instance, comrade
|. q. w ade of Jamestown. introduced
the following preamble and resolutions:
"Whcreas. we. the soldiers and dele
gates of the q. A. r. of Dakota, assem-
b!ed in Annual Encampment at Red
field ID. H., believe that it is our duty
to recommend place for the location
of soldiers home, be it
Resolved, that We recommend the
Hot Springs Of Dakota as the place,
provided that the Home shall be guar
ranteed free use Of the springs y
Contrary to the recommendation of the
soldiers home committee, the above
resolution was agreed to. This shows
the views of the committee up to March
1888, as regards its friendship for Hot
Springs. Now as to the money busi-
ness that General Hammond speaks of
in his letter. Col. James, a member of
said soldiers home committee wrote
me last December stating the commit.
tee expected Hot Springs to furnish
$500 for expenses Of sa,d committee at
Dismark and that he thought Evans
would give one dollar for every two
dollars furnished by us and that the
money should be sent to Hammond OF
himself. answered that the money
would be raised if possible. This let.
ter of James was read before meeting
in Hot Springs, where action was tax.
en- to raise the money. the money wa.
raised and sent to Gen. Hammond who
duly acknowledged the receipt of same
That Gen. Hammond did say he receiv
ed no money from Hot Springs or an,
other source | was assured by leading
members of the legislature. and thos,
too that championed the soldiers hom
bill. Also furnish the following ex
tracts, from letter sent me by one O
the clerks of the Judiciary committee
of the House. which corrobcrates wha
was told me ny members of both hous
es of the last legislature.
