Of things, and who can set forth
what he sees with such wealth and

three lively Shriners' Days. I visited
the old battle grounds for the first
time since l was carried off,
wounded, July 21st, 1864; then I
ran out to Senoia and Harrison to
visit those kind people who took care
of me after I was wounded, ntil uJuly
