Confederate BattIehags Commonly
Displayed Not Correct.
At the February meeting of the La
fayette McLaws Camp, U. c.. ", last
night, the matter of Confederate battle
flags was considered. A letter was
read calling attention to the fact that
the battlefag commonly displayed is
oblong in shape, whereas the original
battlef1ags were square.
Notification was given that a special
committee, composed of five of the
ranking officers of the Confederacy,
had been appointed to look into the
matter and report on the question at
The reunion in Nashville. All Confed-
crate veterans having in their possess
sion any information which may be of
use to the committee were asked to
communicate with some member of the
committee.
During the discussion of the matter
among the veterans, it developed that
there is an errer in the stars which
are placed in the bars on the flag. All
the flags now offered for sale have the
star which is placed at the point
where the bars cross, larger than
those along the other sections of the
bars. lIlS, dCCOIuiiS " the COuS6Il-
sus of opinion, is also an error. The
members of the camp were also unan-
in1ous in the statement that the bat
tlefags were square and not oblong.
short letter was read from Mrs
John B. Gordon, thanking the camp
for the tribute which it had paid to
her husband and for the sympathy
which had been extended to her in her
bereavement.
A letter from Gen. Clement A Ev-
ans was read, thanking the camp for
its action in making him life hon.
orary member.
During the reading of the official or
ders from headquarters, there was one
incident which was peculiarly sad. An
official announcement of the death of
Gen. Longstreet, signed by Gen. John
B. Gordon, was read by the adjutant,
and Immediately following this was
read Gen. Stephen Lees announce
nient of Gen. Gordon's death.
Commander Saussy read a letter
from Judge Calhoun asking him to
call the attention of the members of
the Savannah committee on securing
funds for the erection of a statue of
Gen. Gordon to the necessity of taking
some steps in the matter as soon as
possible The Savannah committee is
