and the home-staying comrades who had
served with them. Thousands of these had
not been TO New England since they went
West shortly after the close of the war. and
they will probably never go again. They
were all eager 10 hunt up their old friends
and relatives, to revisit once familiar spots.
and meet again the men with whom they
had marched, and slept and fought. Their
