To Hereafter Admit Only Battlefield
Soldiers.

Hancock Regiment. No. L. Union Veterans
Union, held an interesting meeting last
night. Col Frank T. Howe in the chair
and DIR. C. V. Pettys acting as adjutant.
1t was decided that hereafter only battle
field soldiers should be eligible for mus
ter, and that the sons and grandsons Of
veterans should be eliminated. Those who
are already in the regiment in good stand
ing will be retained as honorary members,
but in the future only veterans of the
war Of the rebellion who have participated
in battle shall be eligible for membership.
During the debate on this resolut on re-
marks were made by Col. John Middle
ton, Gen. H l.. Dearn. Capt. b. F. Chase,
DR.. C. V. Pettys, Judge S. c. Mills and DR..
Frank T. Howe. All expressed the belief
that a return to the original principles of

merly been members but whose interest
had waned during the last few years.
A resolution was adopted thanking the
commissioner of pensions and the medical
referee for the appointment on the medical
examining board of DR.. C. V. Pettys.
