| ceeded to selection of the following new off,
| GERS: Pres Col. f. G. Haynes; Sec. Gen. II. II.
Wright, Centervlle, and Treas, f. NJ. Kyle.
| 1t was unanimously decided that all future
Reunions of the 9Th Iowa should be held at
Des Moines, with the suggestion that all other
Iowa regiments consider the al visibility of like
action, as Des Moines has logically become the
rallying point of the continually decreasing
membership of the veterans of Iowa. This
regiment has in its custody fund of several
hundred dollars, the proceeds of band fund and
other savings. It is proposed TO utilize these
funds for history of this gallant old regiment.

The next Reunion Of the 9Th Iowa is to be held
