JHE NEW COMPANY
10 is very probable that Richmond is to
have a new military company. 10 be composed
only of sons Of Confederate veterans and be-
ing sons of men who defended the Southern
cause Will be necessary and prerequisite 20
membership IN the organization. The move
was first started last May and two COM
pauies were commenced. Both mate con-
siderable headway, but II soon became
evident to those interested that there could
only be one company formed OF son of veter-
ans, and AZ was az last decided that the inter
ests of both be pooled. This was done and |
it was found that seventy sons" were ready
% enlist IN the militia, representing members
of Lee and Pickett camps
This more than assuring the success OF the
company q meeting Will be held next
Wednesday evening, when the signatures Of
all who have sgnihed their intention of
Joining viii be taken on the roll. 1t Is ex-
pected that quite % number of the members
li Lee Camp viii be present and the meet
ing viii be address ed by Colonel Henry c.
Jones and other officers of the regiment.
THE ARRANGEMENTS.
As soon as the roll is completed it will be
forwarded TO the Adutant-G eneTal, and as
soon as his order is received granting perlnis
SION TO form the company under State author
IT, the sons will hold meeting, elect
.tilcers and equip the company for service.

leeu used as an officers club-rOom, and when

pany rooms in the building.

,ud applications for membership will 60
through that camp and be forwarded 20 Lee
lamp Of Confederate Veterans for indorse-
ueut before being voted upon. The person
