Tn Forty Years There win Be Few Sur
 vivors of the Civil War.
 Interesting in connection with the de- partment encampment is the report of the medical director, Dr. J, R. Hayes, in part as follows, says the Washington Post
 Our annual death rate equals 2.75 per cent. of the whole number in the Grand Army Republic in this depart ment. This is equivalent to death rate of twenty-seven in a thousand, a larger death rate than usually pertains to any given number of people Our band of nearly 4,OOO is being rapidly mustered out, and if we apply the simple rules of arithmetic, and provided that we re- cruit no more, in the year 1880 not one of our LOGO would be alive to tell the story of the past.
 We are dying faster than any other class of our population, because out of the 900 in our organization more than one-half are daily suffering from loss of limbs, from wounds, injuries and disa- bilities contracted during the war. Re- suits of prison-life and the exposure and deprivation incident thereto now cause more suffering than the bullet. Loss of a limb shortcns the life, but the rhcu- matism and scurvy contracted in prison also yearly call for their premature vic tins. Premature aging of all the or gans, diminished vital resistance to all disturbing causes, and more especially diseases of the heart, now so alarming ly present with many surviving com rades, are mainly due to the rheuma- tism and scurvy of prison lifc.
 "I have never seen q survivor from the prison at Andersonville, Ga, that did not have disease of heart in some form or other. So, taking our little band of 4,OOO to-day, in about forty years all who have lost limbs or been seriously wounded or suffered the hard ships and horrors of prison life will have passed away"
