COX DISCLAIMS BEING OLDEST OFFICER Mr. Commander and Comrades: : In order that justice may be done to many ex-knf ederate officers who I am satisfied are still living, I wish to make the following statement and ask that it become a record of our Camp. A correspondent of the Tampa Tri bune in a letter from Lakeland re cently stated that I was the oldest commissioned officer of the Confeder acy now living. This is a' mistake. ' It is true that I held a commission ia tie state troops for nearly, two years prior to the secession of Mis sissippimy native state, but my frst commission in the Confederate army, signed by President Davis, was rtot senE me until September 1861. Had my friend in his letter to the Tribune said that I claimed to be the oldest active F. and A. Mason In Florida, I would have heartily agreed with him. . Yours for the right. J. . A. COX.
