received full volley from the advanced
companies Of the Fifty eighth Virgin

General Ashby rushed forward and
urged his men to use their bayonets.

Annual Banquet at Hotel Francois
Dining Room.

The annual reunion and banquet Of
the alumni Of the Redwood Fails High
School occurred at Hotel Francois last
Friday evening. The reunion was not
as largely attended as it might have
been, q good number of past graduates
being out Of town on visits or being

by William George Jordan on "What
