An Appeal For the Old Soldiers Mr. Leak Asks that Every one Do All Possible To Make the Reunion a Success. Peter's Creek, Va., July 1. To iMy Old Confederate Comrades of Stokes County : The 3rd day of August, 1907, is the day set for our reunion, and I am quite anxious for avery true Codfederate soldier in the county to be on hand by 9 o'clock, A. M., on that day and let us use every effort to make that day one of the grandest days iu the history of the county. Aud now, to the good people of Stokes oounty, will you be as kind in the future as you have been in the past and lend us all the aid and assistance you can to make the day one long to be remem bered. I appeal especially to the young ladies and young men to do all you can to aid us in our reunion by lending your presence aud bring ing a big basket of good thing* for the old soldiers to eat. Now in order to procure the service of a good brass band for the occasion, I hope the people generally, whoareable and willing, will aid us in the way of a small contribution to compensate the band for their services ; and I want to say to the young ladies and young men who feel an interest in our reunion to go to work and see how much each one can raise for the purposo of paying the band, and report the amount oollected every week to the Reporter, in order that we may know whether to get the band or nut. lam sure whenever the ladies and young men become interested, there can be no failure. Now, in conclusion, i will say that I am willing to do all I can for the occasion, and I dare say others will do the same. There is no class of men living that 1 esteem higher than a true Veteran, and I am willing to do almost anything in my power for their comfort and pleasure. So let us all unite and make it a gala day for the old war worn and battle-scarred soldiers, as we will soon cross over the river, and may God bless them and the good people comfort them what little time they may remain on earth. We will also have speaking on that day by some able speaker, and we dom't want any other amusements on that day only a good old Con federate reunion. I hope to meet a big crowd—a sober crowd, and have a good time generally. Respectfully, JAMES A. LEAK. FRANCISCO. Francisco, June 28.—We are having lots of sickness in this neighborhood.
