held at Bushnell in June last, a large
banner was displayed across the line of
march, on which appeared the words:
"You can walk on the grass here"
Most people thought it cunning way OF

perfectly at home, but the inscription
had deeper meaning. at previous
reunion held at Jacksonville one OF the
visitors, Lieutenant Guilford of Chicago,
was fined in the police court for walk

that city. Dick Yates, the city attorney,
prosecuted him as a matter of course.
Guilford had something to do with the
arrangements in Bushnell and the ban

was one of the orators of the day and
was marched under the banner while
Guiford and his friends chuckled ovs'
