&c. d. Towson, Kennett: Trecently received and
read the circular letter correspondence of o. NJ
Mitchell Post, Department of Georgia, with Com
mander-in Chief John Palmer's reply TO quite a
number Of the comrades of Caruth Post 32I. and
they ali OF accord, loud in their praises OF
the ability and firnness of the Commanders views
We all say the Confederate flag and the uniforms
of the gray are symbols Of rebellion and always
will be, and the sooner the members of the blue
discard all connection with The late rebels the bet
ter. We are here just as much surrounded by old
Confederate soldiers as the comrades are in Geor-
gia, only the rebels don't get up any demonstra-
tons to honor the past for they say It's lost and
cannot be recovered. We have our Pos: meetings
decorations, and do not ask them to attend in
their gray would we participate where the uni
form was displayed any more than we would if
the flag was displayed. So we say hurrah for
Palmer.

often obliged 10 travel five or 10 miles to attend AN
