knowing that no one has any just
cause for unkind feelings towards
me. Kespectfully,
W. Preston Thompson.

Attest: 'L M. McLeod,
G. W. Tedder, Chairman
Secretary.
Gen. Lee's Anniversary.
The Elizabeth Harris Chapter. U.
D. C. entertained with a luncheon
the members of the Colquitt Camp
in honor of Gen. Lee's birthday and
the refreshments were lavishly
served iiy the ladies in the most
gracious manner. After this, A.
Livingston, Jr.. passed a box of fine
cigars to each and every guest pres
ent. By way of enteitainment, the lit
tle daughter of T. C.Smith gave one
of her inimitable recitations that
pleased eveiy one.
Comrade Wanton gave an ir.
icrtsiing chapter from his txpt-ii-ence
in the war, he having entered
the service when a nit re youth and
s.-rved t!irc? va::
Comrade Leslie alio gave u short
addicss t?'.;:t was well received and
Comrades Mirtin and Bradford
pleased the guests with their graii
ous speeches.
The Commander of the Camp, Mr.
Randell, e pressed the thanks ol
bis comrades for ihe thoughtful
kindness extended them by the
members of the U. D. C.
There were present 23 members
of the Camp, which was organized
in 1904 with forty members, after
wards increisiag its number to 60.
Since then a third of the number
have passed ever the river.
As the old soldiers filed in the
room a looker on exclaimed what a
host of memories this meetini,
arouses; she recalled the days in tin
early sixties when these men, now
old and feeble, went forth as splen
did specimens of physical manhood
to battle for their homes. She re-
inembered how enthusiastic they
were inspired with true patriotisn
and the South is grateful that the
world has conceded that the Con
federate soldier was the bravest
ever known.
These annual meetings where on
ly a remnant of a grand army sur
vive is pathetic und touching to
those who remember the past
Lvery day the church bell tolls
telling of the passing away of u
hero, who was oncp the hope und
the pride of the South. They tire
rapidly being mustered out by the
Grim Sergeant Death and a fewflcet
ing years and the last one of the
heroes will have answered "here"
and when that time comes. Will
the U. I). C. survive? Time will
show.
