Now aa to our representative:
most important qnsatlona that I cat
now see that are most likely to aris<
wherein Beaufort county will be dl

MOSBY'S MEN BOLD dP:;
THEIR REUNION 1
In
l Groveton, Va., Aug, 29.?The tr0
Porty-thlrd Battalion, Virginia Cav- tlu
airy, Army of Northern Virginia, ar<
better known as "Mosby's men,'' who ma
won fame during the civil war 1111
through their raids on the Federal w'
outposts and lines of communication, 1)61
held their nineteenth annual reunion
today oh the field where the second evl
f battle of Bull Run was fought lust I
I fifty years ago. The stirring stories
of the war were retold, songs were thl
B aung and speeches were made by the nl1
f old comrades. An old-fashioned din- 'nl
_ ner was served the veterans by the Kc
a liull Run Chapter of the United co'
f Daughter sof the Confederacy.
e The members of Mosby's battalion, al)
r once numerous in this soctlom of Vir- be
f ginla, count now little more than a an
n handful, but the survivors express pr
their determination to hold their reunions
as long as a single one la left. VI
It is not generally known that this '
battalion of cavalry was the last body
of Confederate troops in Virginia to
B lay down arms. It was not until
three weeks after Lee had surrendered
that Col. Mosby disbanded the
troopers who had followed his for- de
tunes. Of late years Col. Mosby has VI
nevisr attended a reunion of bis men,
owing to his antipathy to public gath- ^
n erings of every kind.
