Fall In, Co. G.
A letter from Gardner Cox OF Holyoke,
Mass, TO Comrade Clifford of West Hart
ford, VT, reads as follows:-
"Yes, i expect TO be there, and / intend
to invite every member Of Company G,that
is present, to dine with me at my expense.
wish you would scatter the news among
the boys, post il on the guideboard, write
1t on the moon, put 1t in the newspapers.
You say that 81 OF the company are dead, a
little over half OF the original number. A
man that is go years of age is expected to
live nine years longer, so there will not be
many more reunions of the old soldiers.
Let us take kindly look at each other
once more. Bring along your death list
and let us talk 1t over. "Fall in, Company
G ~ II is time to call the roll, to take on
to make a charge on beans,
TO look at each others grizzly boards and
faces, and to take ride on the
beautiful waters of Silver Lake. No place
on earth so charms me as those green hills;
what memories they awaken; how easily
they bring the homesick tear; think OF
what our forefathers wrought upon them
100 miles of roads and 400 miles OF stone
wall in Barnard alone. Think of the crash
of the 100000 trees they felled; think of all
those silent graves and then think of how
much love lies buried there. Yes, ! will be
there August 18th.
Yours Sincerely,
GARDNER Cox, Orderly.
