30 have them framed and hung up beside the twenty-five you have sent me which are already framed. Weather is quite cool for April; it snowed some this morning and is still cloudy, with wind from the northwest. Thermometer at 43 now at 1 o clock p. m; death on young cotton; hope you all may have a good time

We are anxiously awaiting your visit; hope you can come by to see us.

With a heartful of love, your old comrade and friend,

C. R.

Speeches of love and affection were made by Comrades Geer, Haliburt, Fletcher, Bell, Grayson, Mathews, Fontaine, Hogan, Bedford, Armstrong and other comrades. The secretary regrets he could not take them down for printing.

After fervent prayer and benediction by chaplain the meeting adjourned to meet at Little Rock, Ark., in 1911, at the meeting of the U. C. V., Grand Camp.

In the parade Comrade Hogan acted as color-bearer with Sponsor Mrs. Grayson and Maid of Honor, Miss Morgan, as color guards. The Six Hundred was cheered by all the old veterans and the populace as they passed in line.
