DETROIT VETERAN TALKS OF THE WAR
AND LEGACY 1T LEFT HIM.
When the Annual Reunion of the O..
A. t. is held, Michigan is always well
represented. Around the camp fires of
the encampment our boys tell of the
hardships they have gone through and
the listener who knows nothing of war
will wonder how they lived to tell the
tale. Few men, who followed old glory
and escaped the shot and shell, returned
home without some legacy as constant
reminder of their war days. Our repre-
sentative found veteran q. p. Newcomb
of Detroit at his place of residence, No.
237, Second street. Mr. Newcomb told
him how the little conqueror had rem
dered him invaluable service. We give
his account here and some words of
advice tersely told. He said:
"A lake about two acres in extent, con-
tanning the dead bodies of 20 mules, is
not tempting water to drink, but | was
one of the many who drank it, and all of
us would have done so if we had known
there was death in every swallow. This
illustrates but one of the many hardships
and privations passed through during the
Civil War, and it is no wonder that q. A.
r. men suffer from aches and pains, the
most prevalent of these being due to
kidney disorders. am pleased to note
that great many others who passed
through as trying ordeals, as |, have now
learned that these troubles can be miti-
gated. When / say Doan's Kidney Pills
will cure them | not only speak from
experience but from observation. To
all old soldiers or anyone suffering from
kidney complaint my advice is to try
that remedy"
