ORDER AND PRECEDENCE OF
SPONSORS AT COMING
REUNION

Jacksonville. Fla, Arril 29.-All
question of the order and precedence
to which the official sponsors of the
United Confederate Veterans and
Sons of Veterans will be entitled at
the coming reunion in this city was
set at rest when the files of the cor
respondence in Chattanooga were
, looked up and it was seen that in
furnishing the official list Gen. Ben
nett HI. Young, the commander-in-
chief, had designated the order in
which they should come. This plan
will be followed here.
The multitude of sponsors and at
tendants, which has come about
through widespread adoption of the
name has caused much confusion. All
of this uncertainty, however, is i'm
mediately dissipated by grasping the
central fact that there are only forty
two official sponsors, and that for the
1914 parades, receptions, grand
marches and everything where there
is any question of precedence at all
the following applies:
Sponsors for Veterans.
Sponsor for the south and attend
ants.
Sponsors for Trans Mississippi de-
partment and attendants.
Sponsor for Texas division and at
tendants.
Sponsor for Arkansas division and

Sponsor for Missouri division and

Sponsor for Oklahoma division and

Sponsor for Pacific division and at
tendants.

partment and attendants.

The large attendance at the funeral
of the late Mrs. Fannie r. Gary, de-
spite the heavy rain, was another eVl-
dence of the deep impress her lire
had made upon the community.
Never before have We seen such a
wealth of floral offerings. 1t was lit

rest beneath a wilderness of flowers
and every flower was given In token
of love and affection,

She was a generous giver, and she

wall and placing a sill in a manner

like manner.
A plea of guilty was entered by the
two defendants and they were bound
over to await the action Of the grand
jury.
The charge Of larceny against
Mrs. NJ. l.. Johnson which was filed
by C. w. Buckner was not sustained

dismissed, for want of evidence.
Buckner flied the information charg-
in, that chickens to the value of SIS
