hope they will never get Dayton

More pleasing. however. TO me

even # IL had been deserved, at pub

among the reviewing party. Colonel
Johnston naturally felt Inundated and
exercised his right 20 resign his com
maud. The forty-odd officers Of the
18th, however. who sent in their res
ignations in sympathy with the feeling
of their colonel, used bad judgment IN
so doing.
while IL is claimed .here was no
collision in having the designations
sent in all together, the officers never
theless laid themselves open TO a
charge Of conspiracy. To accept their
designations would break up the regl-
ment. Colonel Johnston's hasty reslg-
nation deprived him Of the advantage
