uniform, G: A. r. hats and white gloves, but
without belts or side arms. 1t is hoped,
howe yer, that no comrade will stay away
because he has no uniform. Comrades Of
other Posts and all ex-soldiers and sailors
are cordially invited to join our ranks, and
they can obtain the excursion tickets Of the
committee at the same price as comrades of
this Post
Comrades should report at Thatcher Hall
as early as they conveniently can on the after
noon Of the 10th inst, as there are arrange
ments yet to be made, but out of town com
rades can join the Post at Franklin wharf at
any time before o'clock If more convenient
for them.
The formation and order of march having
been published in orders from superior
headquarters, it is not thought necessary to
give them here.
From previous experience with this Post
the Commander feels no doubt but that
each comrade will feel deeply the duty
which rests upon us for the honor of our
order and Of our Post to show the good
friends Of the Bay State that we fully an

sure to give us. In no state is soldier more
