News From Sumter's Sol
diers.
Various News Notes Prom
Compaoy M?L"
Chickamauga Park,
S L. I Quarters, July 4. '98.
This ?8 a day of rest with the sol?
diers, not even a drill being partici
paled in Most of the boys have
taken advantage of the time, and are
busily .engagedjn washing their soil
ed articles oYclotbing, which goes
without saying, can stand a consider
ab;e amount of Uncle Sam's turpen?
tine soap, and an equal amount of
"elbow grease " Think some of the
boys contemplate opening np a laun?
dry-on their return to Sumter No
doubt they would make a success, if
experience has anvthing to do with
it
Uncle S sin's "pay master7' dropped
something like thirty thousand dol
lars in the S C Regiment on ratur
day Consequently the boys all
wear a broad smile to day Any one
in passing through the camp would
natara!!? suppose that the boys had
monty to burn, and "did not care
bow cora sold *' About the only
thing ihs.t worries some of them is
the manner in which to get rid of it
the quickest, for it being such an un*
natural feeling to have the pockets
wadded with the "shining stuff'' that
it is hard foi* them to become accus?
tomed to it. No doubt, if they get
a chance to go to Chattanooga, which
is only twelve miles eff they would
find little trouble in freeing them
Ives of the borden
A. movement-which ?B a good one
-.was on foot soon after the boys had
received their pay for each member
who felt so disposed to contribute the
laaU sum cf twenty five cents to be
used for the; benefit of the sick in the
company, in buying such delicacies
as they could relish The pUn was
readily agreed to by pretty near the
whole company, and each contributed
the amount asked for
The YMCA was not forgot
ten, either, for a great many, as soon
as they got their money, contributed
very liberally toward it
'1 he sick are ail getting on very
nicely. Several cases of measles
have appeared in Company M. The
unfortunates are now occupying tents
in an isola'ed pnrt cf tb? park, and
no further spreadiof rhe disease is
expected \
The boys of Company M were glad
that the committee in charge of the
money saw fit to return it lo be dis
tributed' by one of the uoo'cotomiou
ed officers The money was received
by Sergt Miller yesterday and will
be distributed by h:m to day.
Some of the members of Company
M are trying to get furloughs so that
"?bey can go borne once more before
heaving for "Cuby ,Jr So far none
bave succeeded The railroads have
offered reduced rates to the soldiers,
and a great many will take advantage
of it, provided they can get the
proper document with which to paes
the sentinel lines.
If the 8. C Regiment is still here
daring the Confederate reu ion at At?
lanta a great many of the Sumter
boys expect to attend
The 1 canteens'7 have all run dry
sice "pay day *' Seems to be a hard
matter to keep it supplied with beer,
that being the only drink dispensed
Company M had an addition to the
bill of fare to day-peach pie and
biscaits. Chief Cook Jones under
stands his business With the as
sistauce of Privates Brailsford and
Hancock be can get up as good
meal as any man C
