An elaborate system of registration was worked out by three government experts whereby the old soldiers, upon arriving in Wash ington were placed in immediate touch with those who marched and camped with them half a century ago. No matter how widely they may have been separated during the years that have passed since the close of the war. they thus were able to set to- gethed and renew acquaintances as soon as they reached the Encamp- ment.
