My Dear Comrade s;-We have past
through a very severe winter, many Of
the veterans have heard the call t" the
roll call on the other side, We realize
that the time is not far distant when We
too, will have to obey its su mmons.
the Lord has been SO good to us we
should reciprocate it by doing good for
others. 1t seems as but yesterday when
we were in reunion at Nash Vile; and
now we are preparing the way to attend
another Ito many of us the last one)
which meets in Louisville Ky. Owing
to the severe weathe, our Camp has not
metifegularly at stated meetings. March
the 25 was our last regular day, but
few were present, we transacted what
business we could and adjourned to
meet again April the % at which time
we hope to have full attendance. To
this end was requested TO write this
notice. No DOUBT you have been read
ing with delight of the great preparati-
ons that are being made at Louisville to
give us a grand reception I feel that
it would not be good taste to make
light of it by staying at home" Let us
not be engrossed in the pursuits Of
wealth, that We can not find time to at
tend our camp meetings, as well as An
nual meetings of the u. G. Y. We
are not going, to get honors; hut be-
cause we have the honor Of being one
OF them. Let me urge you not to for
get the % day of April. We want to
consumate our plans for the General
Reunion, also perfect As to place where
we will have our County Camping
Place this Summer, aud other business
that must be attended to.

that we see in the way. That is
the necessity Of making a new con-
tract, and the danger that without
the effects Of competitive bidding.
the County may be unable to &C.

We beg our Court to look carefully
into llB situation aud, if it be
practicable, make the change,
which we believe will be agreeable
to all the people.
