THE KE UXIOX
The First Day n Grand Success-
The heavy rain of Tuesday and the
threatening clouds of yesterday gave
little promise of a successful opening
Many had come in during the night
and went to camp while the morning
trains brought crowds from every di
rection Early in the day the clouds
broke away and as delegation after
delegation reported and as hour by
hour the throng rapidly increased it
became evident that the first grand
re union of the veteran soldiers in
northern Missouri would prove a suc
cess despite the prophecy of croakers
and the ill concealed desire of a few
mossbacks whose tender susceptihili
ties are even yet shocked by the sight
of the old flag or the uniform of our
bojs in blue y noon the camp was
alive with thousands while a steady
throng still poured into the town
They arc here from more than a score
of counties in Missouri while our
sister states of Iowa and Illinois have
their representatives with us Many
have come with their wives and little
ones long distances in wagons over
muddy roads to be with us
YESTERDAY AFIKRNOOV

following which came the
ADDKhSS
of welcome by Gen lien M Prentiss
who said
Tho present wa but the first of a
series of reunions which would tend to
buildup in this state ft spirit of pride
and gratitude for the citizen soldier
To day tliey were not soldiers but citi
7ons the citizens of the gieat and
glorious republic they bad to
uphold beneath whose flag they were
met to say thai thw their eoinmon
county should remain undivided to the
end On behalf of Adair county he wel
comed the soldier citiens and other
guests Kirksville would do her n l to
make heir stay within her 1 orders a
plea ant one Allwit there might come
over the occasion a shade of sadness a
the audience reflected on the honored
dead to whom and to tho sc before
him the nation owed iti
existence to day Even as he spoke the
shades of the dead might bo hovering
listening in their midst and he desired
thai they bear to Heaven the grand
iiiithein of praise that roa from grate
ful hearts as tho e before him swore to
day to uphold in all its purity and
strength tlio flag of the country for
which the dead had died As the car
ly dew revives the beauty of the flower
so he hopes the memories of the pist
would rouse among the titrens
that would snstain the flair
and promote jieace and hannnny all
over the countiy How proudly and
grandly they ouyht till to feel hoi- wil
lingly should ihey sink all rival dif
ference in the common reflection that
they had Wed pcrmittu d
by a kind piovidcnte to
achieve tne freedom of the grandest
nation on earth Let each man do hU
pait to continue flic fruits of his sol
dier labor and at the cud the irreat com
mander of all armies and world should
say as he once more said now welcome
For which oratorical effort the speak
er ot three rousing cheers in addition
to the appau e fhat greeted sundry
sentences during its delivery The sol
dier boys were in the mood to appreci
ate anything that had the true union
riny as they sat and listened while
lloatim over the camp tents they saw
the colors they had
earned to victory in the
years of civil strife Tlie net speaker
proved a text that made all their throats
hoarse He was none other than
Gen David Moore of the 24th Mo
and he told how that regiment went
into the fight at Shiloh only to be in
terrupted by Gen Prentiss who said
he would repeat the message sent to
him by Gen Moore after he had gone
out in the early morning with five com
panies and met a foe numbering o
00 men That message was Gen
eral I have met the enemy Send
me my other five companies and Ill
lick em Tremendous applause
and cheers
Other responses to the addresses
of welcome were made by Captain
Hutchinson of Sullivan and Capt
D II Foster of Macon The singers
gave the familiar song Tenting on
the old Cam Ground and Miss
Nellie Dais of Illinois recited Sheri

The second day of the re nnion
opened auspiciously An night long
people had been coming by railroad
in wagons buggies and on horse back-
liy noonstreets alleys roads and camp
ground were teeming with people and
yet they continued to come An ac
tual count of the wagons alone from
the post office north and west amount
ed to 5908 which with an average of
six to each wagon would give fully
1 lltRI -V l Vi THOUSAND
to say nothing of those who came by
other conveyances
There were people here from as far
east as Indiana noith as Minnesota
and south as Arkansas
tIE CROWD
was all day remarkable for its good
humor its orderly character and the
absence of complaints and fault find
funding The greeting of old com
rades was in some cases most touch
ing
THE MORNING rROCKrIHNCS
at camp were limited to the presenta
tion to the representitives of the differ
ent Missouri regimcntsjthe banners car
ried by them during the war The
Twenty first had three so presented to
its representative Gen David Moore
The blood stained banner of the Eigh
teenth to Capt Hrantner its original
bearer who told hou he had carried it
at Lookout Mountain through the bat
tles around Atlanta where five men
standing within arms length of him
were shot at his side and along with
Sherman in his march to the sea
The flag of the Tenth Missouri was
presented to Col London of that
coqis who in behalf of the remnant
present accepted the sacred pledge
andgaethe flags hisory at Shiloh
Corinth Virksliurg the first to enter
that city In concluding the colonel
remarked that officially the soldier w is
apt to be somewhat forgotten in these
degenerate days The people elected
too many sutlers and camp followers
forgetting that the country was safest
in the hand of those who preserved it
Cheers
The flag of flic seventh known as
the Jilaek JIawk cavalry was to have
been presented l Jlnj A Sliiigerland
but he was toosiek to take part
Other flags were pre ented and Gov
J S Phelps was presented to the audi
ence and received with cheer
The Glee Club sing rallv round the
flag bays and Miss Xellie Davis the
elocutionist gave a recitation of Whit
tiers Harbara Fritchie
After dinner Governor J S Phelps
delivered ifn addres much of it good
but some of it scarcely pertinent to the
occasion The Governor thought the
time might not be far distant when the
southern limit of the republic should bo
the Isthmus of Panama and its north
ern border the Frigid Zone He spoke
feelingh of the dead soldiers who had
under providence fought to save f he
ol some fifteen hundred soldiers by
Gov Phelps and in the evening a num
ber of infonnsl soldiers- meetings were
held on tho ground
learn that Gov Phelps was free
to admit afler witne sing fho days
