The resignation a Of Colonel George
Wayne Anderson. OF the seVentieth Vir-
glna Regiment. was yesterday officially
accepted by Governor Swanson though
the latter attempted to- persuade Colonel
y Anderson to Withdraw the resignation
4 In his letter to the Governor, Colonel

that the sacrifices which the position de-
mands have become too heavy and pur-
densome for him to devote the proper
time to this work and to his own prlyate
affairs He regrets very mnchg that maj
tiers have forced him to this issue put
says that 1t is the only course open TO
him. At tho same time he takes occa-
sion to compliment the regiment on 1ts
services and Its growth turing the last
few years. III 81 # !.
Colonel Anderson has been at the head
of the regiment for seventeen years, anG l
during that time he has accompanied
much toward increasing the ethclenoy
and the worth Of the regiment 70 me
State. He has been q faithful and ae-
gpendabie officer, and 1t Is with no little
regret that his brother officers w note

cally there seems to be 9 large sentllnsnt
