tee Of the Grand Army. encampment.
The first call for payment Of the
pledges that We're made some time ago
nobly. The response is hearty and
there has been no delay. The encamp-
ment is less than month away and it
has been found necessary to call in the
pledges to meet the expense of prepa-
ration for the great event,
The generosity Of Minneapolis has
been subject to other calls beside the
encampment, but, the fund, it is be-
lieved, will be ample for all needs. Not
who We're able TO do so returned the
pledges to the committee, but the "nev-
er-give-up' policy of the committee is
still in force, and negligent interests
that have failed to reply will receive
an urgent demand from the committee,
