MarlInton Reunion

Last Friday there was meeting of
the old soldiers belonging to Camp Da-
yid $. Crelgb at the Fair Grounds to
determine about attending the Reunion
at Marlinton, the seth of this month.
1t was decided to attend. and reso-
luton was adopted urging all Confed-
crate veterans to do so, and suggesting
that the soldiers from this county 20
as far as practicable in body, taking
their provisions with them and pre-
pared to camp out, both on the way and
while there. To this end, it was fur
Their suggested that the veterans in the
different neighborhoods of the county
arrange for themselves and take a sup
ply of provisions. Tuesday, the 2sth,
was agreed upon as the day to meet at
Frankford at II O'Clock and make the
start. OF course others can join the
column at Falling Spring and on the
route above.
1t was the sense of the meeting that
as many old soldiers Of Camp Creigh as
possible should attend the reunion.
The people of Pocahontas are making
every preparation to entertain a large
crowd. Greenbrier should furnish her
proportion. The first night camp will
probably be on the Droop Mountain
battlefield.
