reunions Of the future. Gradually the
old soldiers are firing of the great gather
ings under national encampment auspices
as making too heavy a drain upon the
nerve force and pocket book as well: and
as the q. A. L. weakens and its gather
fngs are principally confined to State and
neighbolhoOd, the annual regimental re-
union is sure to be held in reserve as the
outing OF the year for the wearers of blue.
There are probably thirty five regimental
and battery associations of the civil war,
Maine troops, in condition to hold annual
reunions. Most of these have held gath
eTings this year, with an average attend
anCe of perhaps sixty. That would mean
that about 1000 Maine veterans have gath

season, or five times as large body as
