Reported by Captain Loispeich.
Last Saturday the 2sth, the Ex-
Confederates Of this county met and |
held their first annual reunion under
the auspices Of Camp Marmaduke L. |
c. \. by l0:30 quite a large crowd
had gathered at Whites Grove and |
We're called to order by the command |
er Of the camp, and prayer was offer
ed by the Rev. J. +. Watkins, of the
Pre,by i-tian church of this city.
y >!lDIt address was delivered by
&. B. LOtspeich, after which Miss
Birdie tutron, sponsor for the Camp,
"eci;ed the r urIed Banner" which
was received with deep emotion de-
picted upon the faces Of the audience.
Dinner was then annOunced-and
such a dinner, If any one went away
from the ground hungry ii was be-
cause they would not eat. At 2p. III.
the crowd again assembled around
the speakers stand, swelled now to at
least one thousand persons and was
addressed by Judge James b. CAN'T,
of Jefferson City. Too much cannot
be said in praise Of his address. 1t
was plain. No one could mistake the
speakers words. 1t was manly. He
stopped to no mean partisan clap
trap or party spirit. 1t was honest.
He spoke from the heart that which
seemed to come as though it had been
pent up all these years and now burst
forth like q volcano. 1t was loyal.
He has been fully reconstructed. He
loves the flag of his country and is
proud of her history and her institu
tions. He was heartily endorsed by
every Ex-Confederate, and so far as
the writer knows, by every other
man. 1t was red letter day for
Camp Marmaduke and gives promise
of the larger and better reunion that
they will hold next year.
After Judge CAN'T had completed
his interesting address, Hon. d. A.
DeArmond was heartily called for
and responded with q splendid talk
of twenty minutes that elected fire.
quent outbursts Of applause.
During the day the band discoursed
sweet music to an appreciative audi
ence, and all went away happy, feel
ing that they had enjoyed the day.
