 The priyates are, as a rule, more modest than the colonels, but that is no reason why they should not be given proper representation. The fact that at New Orleans there was no private from Alabama, or no private who could be named to serve on a committee, should not be repeated at future reunions.

Many of them have been honored by their fel- low countrymen, and in the next re- union there should be a revival of in- terest in the rank and fine of the Con- federate army.
