ROusing Meeting Of Patriots.

Never in the history of the county has
a more enthusiastic audience assembled
in our town than was gathered at the
court house last Friday evening in re-
sponse to the call for meeting to organ
ize company for the war with Spain.
The large court room was early packed
with the patriotic citizens of this place
and the surrounding country. Old men
and young, gray haird veterans, ladies
and children were there and We'd with
each other in efforts to show their loyalty
to the flag. The meeting was called to
order and G. A. Randall was made Presi-
dent, with the following Vice-P Presidents:
Jonas Skunk, Lemuel Wolf, j. c. Miller,
Kingsley township; L. L. Osgood, Hick-
ory; G. w. Clark and J. 3. Agnew, Tio-
nesta. ]. B. Muse was elected Secretary.
Rev. r. A. Buzza invoked the Divine
blessing on the meeting. On assuming
the chair Mr.. Randall expressed his
thanks for the distinguished honor of
having been chosen to preside at meet
ing of this character. Berlin Post mar
tial band was present, and the good old
fife and drum were very frequently call
ed into requisition during the evening,
and the cheers and shouts of the crowd
knew no bounds. Rev. Mr.. Buzza was
called for and made the speech of the
evening, and for over half an hour fired
the audience with greatest enthusiasm by
his eloquence. Jonathan Albaugh also
made short speech in which he recalled
many incidents of the late war and
warned the boys that it was no mere
boys play. The rolls were then opened,
and an opportunity given to all who
wished to enroll their names for the i'm
pending war. A large number came to
the front and added their names to those
already on the list. After singing Amer
lea by all present the audience was dis
missed to allow the company to effect a
temporary organization.
The audience having filed out, tempo
rary organization was effected as follows;
President, John Swanson; VICE Presi-
dent, ]. G. Scowden, Secretary, ]. d.
Davis; Treasurer, X. G. Heath. A COM
mittee was appointed to look up suita-
ble place for holding company drills.
Upward of 80 names were ON the roll at
this time, which number has since been
increased to nearly if not quite 100. A
resolution was adopted naming Saturday
as training day, and meeting will be
held next Saturday for that purpose, at
the old rink building, which has been
secured and will answer the purpose ad-
mirably.
Look for crack company from this
section. No better material is to be
found in the world.
Remember the Maine.
