It was the editor's pleasure to attend the reunion of old Oonfeds at ? 1 mi wcoaiora on laat xiiuisuay?mo icuu* ion of Capt. Joel Knotts' Co. K 1st. South Carolina Volunteers, Maxcey Qreggs' regiment?the first soldiers to eater the serv.'ce at the beginning of that memorable struggle in 1861. It was one of the most p'e^sant meet- ings of t&S kind it has eyer been onr good fortune to attend. It was not only a meeting of old Veterans, but here the people of the entire community gathered to do honor to the men who woxte the grey, and everyone vied with eachother in an effort to make the occasion one long to be remembered. . A bountiful c inner was served by the ladies?a dinner sucli as only the good women of that section of Orangeburg and Lexington know how to prepare and serve?yea, a dinner ft for the gods. The rendition of a delightful programme of songs, etc., appropriate to fiie occasion, wa9 much enjoyed by everyone. All told, there were about thirty or forty old sold'eis present, many of whom came from a distance. It was a pleasure indeed to hear these old com rades recite the exciting and trying experiences of the days when thejs were lacing the enemy amid shot and shelVand many were the reminiscences told. There was throughout that feeling of warm fellowship wi. oh will continue to exist as long as life shail last, and when the last old soldier has answered the final summons, their deeds of valor and devot on to duty will ever be cherished by the sons and daughters, who will hold dear to their hearts the memory of their fathers.
