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.
