Amazon Guards to Hold Reunion.

Amazon Guards to Hold Reunion.
A well known lady married with
several children well grown, suggests
that there be reunion of the ANA
Zon Guards of Grand Junction.
Not one-fifth of the people in this
city now, have any knowledge of the
organization of young girls in this
city of nearly twenty years ago, who
composed a regular military com
pany, under the command of former
Brigadier General Thomas b. Craw-
ford. of the national guard of the
state.
A great many of the social features
of this city could be laid at the door
of the armory of the Amazon Guards, |
as they were a jolly company of
handsome young girls identified with !
the early history of Grand Junction.
The Sentinel seconds the sugges-
ton that 1t would indeed be a very
pleasant reunion for all of them and
hopes that the proposal will reach the |
right spot and that the organization
may meet for a reunion.
