 It but expresses it mildly to say that this kind and generous deed was appreciated beyond conception. It was an act of consideration and kindness which should, and we have no doubt will be, cherished in the hearts and minds of the recipients as long as life lasts. It was trl- bute of love for the cause for which We old veterans fought, a cause, though lost, can never be forgotten, though dead, yet speaks. And in the name of the party, l, a mem Der, tender heartfelt thanks to each and every one of the contributors.
 On the journey there and back, and during our stay in the city ot Houston, "it warmed the cookies of our heart" to note the pleasure and difference with which the old gray uniforms of the South were greeted from all classes and individuals, both young and old. From the time we left home until our return, this re- gard and esteem as impressed up on us.
 At Wynne, where some of the party breakfasted when they went to pay the ticket, the proprietor ot the restaurant came forward and had the cashier. discount the price at least one third.
 After a wearisome though pleas ant journey of two days and one night, we arrived safe, sound and Tn the best of spirits at the place Of our destination-Houston, Tex, the queen city of the state and the coming metropolis of the South west.
