CONFEDERATE REUNION
Three Thousa nd People Attend Meet

Especial Dispatch to The Tlmeso
SOUTH BOSTON. July S0.-A reunion
of the Confederates of Halifax was held
in Hodges Grove here to-day, and, a
crowd estimated at three thousand at
Tended the exercises. They came from
all parts of the county, and some OF
them commenced to arrive yesterday eve
ming to be in time for the great occa-
sion.
A platform had been erected for the
speakers, and Mr.. w, /. Jordan, presided.
After a very touching prayer by Rev.
Mr. Crews, Colonel Henry Easley made
an eloquent address of welcome to the
veterans and others who had come to
join in the exercises and to partake
Of the hospitality of the people Of South
Boston. This was responded to by Mr..
D. B. Easley, of Scottsburg, in a most
enjoyable address, which, as is usual
with him, was replete with humor and
tender illusions to the Lost Cause.
He was followed by the principal orator
of the day, Captain Ilenry Edmunds, Of
Houston. who, on account of his youth
fitness during the civil war, was called
the Boy Captain His address was
chaste and eloquent, interpersed with hui
NOR and pathos. After the conclusion
of his remarks eStemnoraneous addresses
were made by Mr. JOSEPH Stebbins Mr..
H. A. Edmondson and otilers, who were
called for by the audience.
At O'Clock, the dinner. which was
furnished by the people of South Boston,
was served by the ladies of the town,
one of the principal features of which
was an old-fashoned Brunswick stew
which was prepared and cooked on the
grounds.
Halifax has a record, of which any
county might be proud. for soldiers fur
nished for the Confederacy during the
civil war. the number furnished being
thirty-three companies, while the state
ment was made by one of the speakers
that she furnished a greater number of
soldiers than any other county in the
State
One OF the objects of this particular
reunion was to successfully launch a.
movement for the erection of a monu-
ment at some point in the comfy. to the
Confederate soldiers and it is likely that
in the not far distant future Halifax will
be able to boast a monument which will
compare favorably with that of any other
county in Virginia. This is a, question
which has been under discussion for a
long time, but has never been properly
presented to the people, but it is now
in the hands of a competent committee,
with Captain Henry Edmunds at the
head of it. and will doubtless be pushed
forward without further delay
