the organization of the command that
the idea of having a cottage at Hayden

Tee was chosen and the lot selected, the
location being several rods at the rig hit
of the road leading through the grove.
Soon after an association was formed,
the necessary funds were raised by indi-
vdtlal contribution and the work begun.
In behalf of all concerned, it should he
mentioned that i'll a large measure is
the success of the project due to the val
liable aid, financial and otherwise, of
Jefferson Savage and Gen. r. 3. Shep-
herd and particularly the latter gentlC-
man, a member of the command. who
transported free of charge all of the nee
essary lumber used in the construction of
the cottage.
The cottage is completed and last Fri
day evening, the formal opening was held
and jovial, patriotic interesting evening
was the result.
The cottage has been named Camp
Shepherd in honor of Gen Shepherd and
to make the surroundings more like thost,
of Gl-65, the clear little brook which gem
tly flows and ripples in front of the camp
has been termed the Potomac
