CAPTAIN A. o. SCOTT.

Camp Bobleter, Fort Smelling, ST.
Paul, Mimi, June 29.-The men and
officers of Company H have been so
busy since we arrived at the camp,
that it is impossible to do much in
the line of correspondence so that
letter in the home papers will no
doubt be appreciated.
While en- route / received a tele-
gram from w. HI. Anderson that the
two flags on the engine were to be
the. property of Company H, when
we reached st. Paul. We Immediate
ly arranged for detail to look after
them, and now have the flags in
camp, where they are very much adj
mired by the men and officers. We
were somewhat delayed in the yards
of st. Paul and arrived at our camp
at about 80 p. m. In comparison
to the old transport wagons, the very
large auto trucks were revelation
in the handling of baggage and sup
plies. Everything is transported in
auto trucks, and this simplifies the
handling to the minimum. After ar
irving at our particular company
street, the men stacked arms, and
proceeded to pitch tents, that had
been provided for them by the regi.
mental quartermaster. This was
done with dispatch, and the men
made comfortable for the night, our
regular camp routine starting the
next morning, The weather has been
ideal and the men are enjoying the
camp. Company H has developed
some very good singers and in mo-
ments of recreation, our company
street is not unlike grand opera at
times, the men furnish anything from
Tipperary up, not emitting rag-tiIne.
The different regiments on the
grounds are nicely distributed, and
at the same time all are easily ac-
cessable for visitors. We have been
fortunate in having quite "a number
of Mankato and former Mankato
people visit our company. and want
to assure the good people of Mankato
that; they are always welcome Our
men were treated to their first in
oculation of typhoid antitoxin yes
terday afternoon, some of them have
sore arms this morning, but none
of them are sick. do not know Of
anyone being in the hospital as yet
/ received the welcome telegram
from Commissioner A. G.. Lack, i'm
mediately on our arrival in camp, that
the armory debt had been liquidated.
This was received with cheers from
the Mankato men, and deeply APP
preciated. 1t certainly shows that
we have our home town back of us
in our effort to protect their flag
and our flag. 81.
L want to suggest that we would
like to have those four cancelled
notes, sent us for incineration in our
company street. lat some arranged
time. and in all probability. there
will be quite a number Of Mankato
people here Sunday, and it occurs to
me that Sunday afternoon would be
an admirable date to celebrate. that
important event, with some of our
good citizens present l will leave
it to them. and request that yop noti-
fy- them through the press. will
