FALL IN, OLD SOLDIERS!

Aug. 14 there will be a reunion of the old soldiers of Sugar Creek twp., and the surrounding country, held at the Hickory Grove school-house four and a half miles southeast of Searsboro, on the Grinnell and Oskaloosa wagon road. All old soldiers, both federal and confederate, and all citizens are cordially invited. Come, one and all, and we will have a good time. Don't forget to bring your dinners and some for visitors. The old boys will entertain you well.
