The Program.

The program as given, though of
considerable length, was one of most
unusual interest to all who were pres
ent. The addresses made by the va
rious members of the post and visitors
were most interesting. and contained
much of personal Renaissance, much
of the awfulness of the struggle, of
the terrible conflicts, of the deaths and
suffering caused thereby, and of the
rent caused between the people of
the north and the south. which is be-
ing slowly and surely healed by the
soothing hand of time. Commander
H. L. Waterman was in charge of the
campfire. After song by the audi
ence, "Tenting on the Old Camp
Ground" and the opening prayer by
the chaplain, A. H. Hamilton, the pro-
gram was given consisting of an open
ing address given by the commander,
II. l.. Waterman, followed by num-
Der of speeches given by different
members of the post. among whom
were Capt. w. H. G. Jaques, J. CMitch-
ell, l. H. Riggs, Caut. J. G. Hutchison
and Captain S. H. Harper. These were
interspersed with several musical
numbers, one rendered by Messrs.
