JAMES LAFAYETTE

James Lafayette, aged 96, now living in this city, the oldest veteran of them all, a pensioner of the War of 1812, will be at the Reunion. He is quite nimble for a man of his years. He is related to General Lafayette, who came from France to render our country valuable service during the Revolution.
