The Re-Union, is matter of his tory. It was a complete success excepting the absence of Governor Winston who by reason of sick ness wss unable to come. There was excellent music and the eloquent address of Major Harding appealed strongly to the heart of every one. Col. Wilson Q. Lamb read a letter from General Hoke, which yon find in another column, and intro duced Major Harding, at the con clusion of whose address Col. Lamb read the history of the Sev enteenth Regiment. Mr. J. A. Hobbs then read the inscrip oa the N. C. Regimental History, the first at Bethel, farthest tp the front at Gettysburg and the last at Appomattox and showed that Martin County had a hero in each of these engagements and they were J. B. Cofield and Stanley Leggett and J. A. Whitley. North Carolina has a glorious war record and Martin County did ber full daty and the people of oar county are justly proud of her record. At a quarter past ten the band played in front of the Dennis Sim mons Lumber Company's office standing in front of the Confeder battle flap which formed a back ground. The marshals Mess. C. B. Hassell and E. H. Hardison then headed a line of march for the courthouse, the band came next in order and following them were the veterans about 300 strong. It waa a beautiful but sad picture to behold our fathers and grand fathers moving in an irregular manner with bent shoulders and halted tread some on canes and others on crutches but all msking an effort to keep time to Dixie and Battle blast. We saw tears in the eyes and hearts rise to the throats of many who beheld this picture and heard the music. It made the younger wish they had been of those days and the older thank God that they were. The whole body of veterans were seated in the bar, the jury box aud on the front seats of the court room. Prayer was offered by Rev Mr. Rose. Mr. S. T. Everett then iu a few worda welcomed the re-union and introduced Col. Lamb. At the conclusion of the speak ing, headed by the band the veterans marched to the Academy Grove, where a sumptious dinner bad been prepared. Owing to the absence of Governor Winston the exercises were concluded earlier than plann ed and the crowd reached the grove before the dinner was prepared. The wind was blowing the cloths and trays over the ground and the veterans were admitted to the tables before the barbecue was ready to be served, but it came in a few minutes and everybody, es pecially every veteran had all he could wish for. There were a few complaints but they were so few and so small compared with the management of such a crowd that we should take no time to mention them. The ropes were dropped a little too ear ly for the crowd after the veterans filed in but everybody had a plen ty, or it was their own fault. The management of this great mass of twenty-five hundred peo ple was as perfect as we could wish for. Veterans who have attended re-unions in Beaufort, Bertie, Edge combe and Halifax say this sur passed all in its arrangement and execution The veterans were giateful for the the day of pleasure given them and their words of praise were not stinted. Numbers said to your writer that it could never be improved while no one expressed any disappointment. This is very gratifying to these who have contributed to its success and it goes to prove what the peo pie of Williamston can do when they try. We hope to see .these re-unions repeated from year to year and looked for as much as Christmas or any holiday. v This article would not be com plete without mentioning the naines of tbose whose energies have made this re-union a possibility as a body we name the Daughters of The Con fed racy, as individuals, «we would name Dr. John D. Biggs, Col: Lamb, Mess. W. C. Manning, J. D. Leggett and J. A. Hobbs, Misses Hattie Thrower, Mayo Lamb and Anna Crawforl, Mes dames Dr. John D. Biggs and J. Paul Simpaon. !#The people of Wil liamston ltot their services and nosey contributions woe sought 1 only from citizens of the town and they did their full abate in every case, doing; all that waa asked. The re-union has passed, we are all happy at its success and grateful to everybody who assisted in making it a success. The decorations were elaborate. only one business house iu the towu did not make some effort to decorate its building snd windows, and all of it was done in harmony with the spirit of the occasion. The court room, where the speak ing was held, ¥ras beautiful, and we have never seen a more perfect picture than that presented by the white and red bunting and the battle flag with veterans surround ing them and Major Harding ad dressing the assembly. All the business houses closed for the speaking and dinner, the school, banks and county offices suspended business. Everybody did every thing possible to make the occa sion one of real joy and pride. It is a pleasure to take Dr. Dade's Little Liver Pills and enjoy their tonic effect on tha liver. Sold by S. R.
