THE OLD OONFEDs.
Attend the Fair Thursday and Greet
Friends.

One Of the most appropriate recos'
nitions made by the Fair management
was their setting apart Of one day
Thursday-as Confederate Veterans
Day, during which all the old vet
erans We're admitted free of charge
About one hundred and twenty-five
attended, and although some .eS'
pressed surprise that there were not
more, it must be remembered that
the war began just about fifty years
ago, and boys who were only thirteen
years old then are now 60. Thinner
and thinner gets the gray line, but
upon most occasions the citizens OF
the present day are prepared to rec
ognize in them men of the first rank,
who were, not found wanting when
the test came.
Among the veterans who regis
tered some had entered the Confed-
crate army in Alabama and other
States; some entered with their
fathers as cooks-being too young
to fght-but were mustered in dur
ing the last months of the struggle.
Old acquaintances were renewed and
all Of the veterans enjoyed the day.
Arrangements had been made at
The Times and Democrats booth for
all old soldiers to register, also with
what company and regiment they
served during the war, but owing to
the fact that they were ali made to
register at the gate, there was some
confusion and only about forty gave
in their names. The names and the
companies with which they served
are:
