for the purpose 81 selecting pallbearers
As result of the work and dehberatIon
OF some hours, the following were selected
and have agreed 10 serve Co. \. X. Law
ton. Lieut.. Coz. j. +. Brooks. Capt. u. !.
Sutciitfe, quartermastcr Of the FirSt Reg
iment; Capt Henry McAlpin of the Geor-
gla Hussars. Lieut.. Davis Freeman, ad-
Jutant, and Lieut., +. G. Wilson OF the Sa-
Vannah Volunteer Guards. II would
scarcely have been possible 70 nave chosen
more representative body Of officers
from the military of The cHy, one more
allied to its interests or alive TO its wei
fare, and in consequence cueri5hing with
the most LOVING loyalty the memory Of
Capt Satterlee and the good work that
ne did Tor the state volunteers.
1t is not altogether certain that Lieut.
Wilson will be able to make the trip 10
Columbia and In that case his place will
be filed by some one else. IL is deemed
desirable that he should be one OF the
pallbearers as, because of his prominence
in military matters and his long counec-
ton with the service. he is thought espec-
tally well fitted to represent his command
in the funeral ceremonies. There will be
a number of other officers from the various
mllitaFN ORGANIZATIONS VINO VIII go over 10
Columbia for the funeral and these will til
Lieut.. Wilson'S place and make up the
quota should more be needed. The word
ing of the telegram left it somewhat in
definite as TO just how many pallbearers
il was desired should be chosen.
The Savannah Cadets held a special
meeting 20 consider the matter of the com
pany's attendance upon the funeral and
compliance with Bishop Capers' request
that they should fire the salute over the
grave There was a large attendance I'm
the company rom at the armory of the
First Regiment, although many of the
men had been hurriedly summoned and
found il difficult to be on hand at such
short notice. With many of them il was
impossible In the absence of Capt. West
who is in Thomasville Lieut.. Tyson pre-
sided over the meeting
Col. Brooks was present and read to the
command the telegram that he had re-
ceived from Bishop Capers. 1t has already
