Members of the First Cavalry Pass
Resolutions Thanking People For
Their Entertainment.
THANKS FOR THE LOCAL POST.
Old Comrades Show Gratitude to Com
rades Lyman and Hale for Man
agement of the Reunion.

Resolutions adopted at the hnal
meeting of the First Wisconsin Cav
| airy Association in Kenosha on'Thurs-
day evening, Oct, 3rd. 1901.
Whereas the First Wisconsin Cava1-
ry Association in this the 10th year of
regimenta1 history has finally accom-
p1ished a long cherished purpose Of
holding a reunion in the City of Keno
sha and is now about to bring the
same to a close, therefore be it
Resolved, That we deem it to DE
most fitting to place in permanent
form on our records an expression of
Our grateful appreciation of the cordial
invitation which brought us again to
this former and now kindly ember-
ed regimenta1 home.
Resolved, That we have been made
to realize to our great pleasure and
satisfaction that our recollection of
the hospitality and patriotism of the
Kenosha people is not mere splendid
dream which owes it's lustre chiefly to
that brightness which the passing
years bestow upon all happy expert
ences, but that the new generations
which occupy this favored spot are
mostly sons and daughters of the peo-
pie whom we so loved and hOnored for
ty years ago.
Resolved, That while we are unable,
except in general and comprehensive
terms to indicate all the people and or
CARNATIONS that have put us in deep
and lasting Indebtedness for the
abundant opportunities which have
been provided to make this a most in
teresting and successful reunion, yet
we cannot avoid mention of the re-.
mar1zaD1e generosity of tire Com 1.o-4
Council and of citizens, which showed
itself in many ways, and especially in
the splendid reception and entertain
ment provided for us at the Opera
House last evening; nor of the frater-
nal greetings and attention of Fred S.
Lowell Post, and of other resident vet
Grams, nor Esha11 we ever forget the un-
firing and bountifu1 labor Of the ladies
of the Relief Corps in supplying daily
repasts, every one of which was a ban
quet, nor their generosity in contribut-
ing a substantial money offering for
our absent 9and suffering Comrade,
Steve Nicholas, nor can we justly fail
to specify the earnest and we'll direct
ed work of Comrades F. H. Lyman
and Geo. Hale which has contributed
so largely to the perfect observation of
our anniversary; nor shall we fOrg ct
ackn ow1edgment of the abundant
space given our coming and staying
by the city press.
Nor can we overlook the solicitous
attentions of the local artists who
with kindly but mistaken zeal have in
sisted on making sun copies of the
features and forms frol1 which the
beauty of four decades ago has long
since departed; nor would we ungra-
ciously forget the handsome young
musician, Emil Lech, who has brought
back so wildly the days and nights of
yore by hisSmagnifcent use of the bu-
gle.
We areysconstraineda also to mention
with gratitude the members of the
Simmons band, who through their
courteous manager Mr.. Edward Allie
man, volunteered their services for es-
cort duty. Nor can we-but it is
useless effort to cover the whole ground
in this way. We are bankrupt under
innumerab1e obligations and can only
say, each and every one of us to you
Kenosha peop1e-thank you, one and
all. We shall never forget you, God
bless and keep you.
