Can YOU tell me why the Confederacy
adopted gray as the color OF it's uniforms?
Was IL taken from the Seventh New York
Regiment on is visit to Richmond in
1902 Please ans Ner in next Sundays
paper, and oblige "a regular subscriber.
G.. y. j.
we have never seen any special reason
given why the Confederacy adopted gray
as the uniform of its armies. but presume
that controlling reason was that it was
a desire TO have it different from the blue
OF tho United States Army. We have no
idea that the uniform OF the Seventh New
York Regiment was thought OF as a. rca-
son for adopting toe gray. The cadets
at West Point and the cadets Of the Vir-
giuia Military Institute at Lexington had
worn the gray uniform FOR many years.
A writer In the September number OF
Dixie Land claims that both the Confed-
crate flag and the uniform were Invented
by Mr.. Nichola Marshall. now living in
Louisville. and that it was done al the
request of Mrs. Napoleon Lockett. of Ma
rion. Ala
a letter is published from Mr.. Marschan
giving his account Of the matter. and
saying that tho stray uniform was sus-
sested TO him from having seen in Verona
party of Austrian sharpshooters dressed
in beautiful gray uniform.
We are skeptical about this whole story.

SO to give us further lght on the subject.
