The first annual meeting of the survivors of Campanies G and H, Sixth Regiment, S. C. V., was held in the Town hall, at Winnsboro, S. C., at 121 o'clock, on the 11th day of April, 1878. The meeting was called to order by the President, Capt. R. C. Clowney, who delivered the following address: Comard -.I feel it my duty to-day '. somc remarks, as the objer m'eeting does not seem to ' ",;hly understood. Seventeen yo:,. you tore your selves away from weeping mothers and those that were near and dear to you, and took up arms in defence of your country. In confidence you marched forward with a determined spirit and firm step to meet her enemy. For four years you strug gled amidst hardships, toil, trial and dangers, for her rights. Your struggling was in vain, but you have the consolation of knowing that you did your duty. Victory should be valued by the efforts made to accomplish it-defeat should be respected according to the efforts made to prevent it. Your defeat was not caused by any dereliction of duty on your part ; for I say to.-day, without any fear of contradiction, that you never gave up the field to the enemy intil ordered to do so, It is not my intention to recall any of the bloody scenes that you passed through, or to boast of anything you did, or to claim that you were the only regi ment that did their duty, but to tell you that your work is not yet completed, nor can it be until we make out a complete record of the Sixth Regiment. We must let the world know that we are not ashamed of the part we took in that great struggle. You took up arms in obedience to a call of your country; you fought her battles upon the principle that you vere her sub jects, let her be right or wrong; and to day, my comrades, if she should call. upon you, you would unfurl her banner to the breeze and march forward wherever she said for you to go. Our object is to get up a complete record of the Sixth South Carolina Regiment. Tis is our last and sacred duty ; it is a duty we owe to our country, to ourselves and to onir families, but especially to our dead comrades --those of our number who rest, I trust, in peace beyond the river ; wvho gave their all to their country, who sealed their devotions with their life's blood. Shall we allow their names to be trampled upon, to be handed down to their descend. ants as rebels against their country ? No, my comrades, you who stood by your flag ainidst scenes of danger and death until you were ordered to surrender, will stand by their principles to-day and forever. Their memories must be chierished, their names perpetuated. Let us then press forward this organiza tion until wve have gotten up a complete history of our Regiment, so that we may read it, bathe it in tears, and hand it down to our children as a sacred trust. Teach them to respect the memories of our fallen comrades, and the priciples for wvhich they died. Teach them that we were worthy the name of gallant soldiers, although wo fou:.;iht for a ".Lost Cause." The minutes of Tie last regular meeting were read and confirmed. The Committee on Statistics made partial reports, which were re ceived as information. On motion of Mr. W. F. Jackson, Co. 0, the corresponding secretary was instructed to extend special invitations from Companies 0 and H to Generals R. H. Anderson and C. W. Fields to attend the Reunion of the Sixth Regiment, S. C. V., to be held in Chester, S. 0., on the, 8th day of August next. Mr. S. 1R. Johnston, Co. 0, moved that the President's address, and the proceedings of all meetings of this association be published in our county paper. The president appointed on the Executive Committee S.RB. Johnston, Co. 0, and Calvin Brice, Co. H. On motion of Mr. Jas. A. Brice, the Reunion adjourned, to meet again in Winnsboro, 5. 0.., at 11 o'clock, a. mn., on the 11th day of July, 1878. J. W.
