best efforts in the next Congress to get Micah French a pension—and he'll do it.
The new field officers were called upon the stand and introduced to the regiment. Each made a pleasant response, promising their best efforts to make the next re-union successful in all its detail. After a couple of songs by the quartette, the Association adjourned.
The re-union of '86 was a very pleasant and successful one. The comrades in Nevada aimed to make it such, and succeeded. Its pleasant memories will go with the Vets until next year, when the boys of our shiretown will surpass themselves.
