would be in the poorhouses of the State. Here
also there must find home soon a still larger
number Of veterans, who disabled by disease or
old age, now desire admission 10 its doors. Not
until 1908 1t is ntimated Will this tide Of in
creasing numbers of disabled veterans have its
ebb. Until them with every year. there Will be
a larger number Of old soldiers who will require
support by the State.
No better site for home OF this character
could have been selected. It's geographical posi-
ton is excellent: for it is situated in the centre
Of the southern tier OF counties Of the state, but
so far north In one of those counties, Steuben,
as to be readily accessible by railroad from the
northern tier Bath itself is placed in the
broad and beautiful valley Of the Cohocton
River. one Of the tributaries of the Chemung.
Low hills covered with evergreen forest border
this valley and add greatly TO its beauty. About
a mile northwest of the village there was an
indentation Of this bordering chain Of hills. and
in this ndentation was a large meadow Of level
grass land. Land purchased for the Home
at this point and the buildings now face por-
ton Of the meadow. which has become u parade
ground OF large size and beautiful appearance.
In all. five hundred acres were bought for the

There is an acre Of ground covered with little
white gravestones each inscribed with the name
Of the veteran whose grave ii marks. In the
centre there rises tall white obelisli of granite
This stone bears the inscription: Erected by
Samuel Dietz in memory Of the Soldiers and Sail
ors Of the War for the Preservation of the Union
who died in the New-York State Soldiers and

in this cemetery.
PATH MADE BY A VETERAN
One OF the most pleasing parts Of the ground
is footpath which extends southwark from the
home Of Colonel Shepard along the banks OF the
Cohccton River for a distance of a half mile TIL,
path winds along through the woods and across
gullies about thirty feet above the surface OF the
Cohocton River The special interest in this
path. aside from the beauty of the landscape
around il, is that II the work OF one man. a
veteran, j. L. Myers. a member of the Regular
Army. who by year and half Of constant Ia
Dor. has constructed il. He asked for no aid;
indeed. he declined help His motive was TO give
his comrades at the Home "A pleasing walk. Myers
was stationed in the West "A soldier for many
years. He has amused himself by lacking TO
trees pretended sgnposts OF roads. Thus one
placard reads ITO Tarantula Jim's Ranch; an
other ITO Hard Luck Camp" and still another

scattered along this trail, so that one can

Colonel Shepard accompanied the visitors on the
tour Of inspection. Looking at the beds Of flow

. aims Is to make the lives OF these poor old men
as cheerful as possible" In reply 10 an inquiry
the Colonel stated that the Home now has 1,2S,'

in 1876 the care of 6.962 veterans. II have no
doubt from Information which comes to me-. he
added that a. least one thousand disabled vet

Stewart, that the new dormitOry when built

of stairs to get to his bedroom, when there Is
such an abundance Of available land as there
