savannah will make a good showing in
H the parade of to-day, a large proportion
of the membership of both of the camps
of veterans and a creditable number of
the Sons being on hand, who will take
n part in the ceremonies. The Confederate
4 Veterans Association will carry its own
4 banner, While the Sons will bear one of
4 the old battle flags that have survived the
shot and shell of the carnage through
4 which they passed in the battles of che
civil war.
1t is probable that other of the veterans
who have not yet gone over will leave
during to-day and tomorrow and will
spend at least twenty-four hours in see
ing the sights of Charleston and taking
H part in the stirring ceremonies of the
n reunion There will be no lack of elo-
quent addresses to make interesting the
sessions of the convention and of pleasant
social entertainments to while away the
hours when the brain becomes tired and
the sightseekers can find time to enjoy
and leisure to appreciate the receptions,
dances and boating parties that are to
be given in honor of the veterans their
sponsors and their maids of honor.
