Col. Hume's Announcement
One little incident that had a touch of
pathos occurred Sunday afternoon when
during. the regimental parade it is Gus
tomary for the colonel to dismiss his
majors after the completion of the pa
rade, and Colonel Hume took the occa-
sion to state that this would probably
be his last time he would dismiss them
as he will retire before another camp
unless in the event of war. II was with
great effort that he controlled his emo
tiohs, as he has regarded these men as
his closest friends, sharing with them
at times his condolences and trusting
them legally, and the greatest feeling
of fraternity springing from association
with them.
