160th I. V. I. Reunion.

Thursday was reunion day for the 160th Indiana regiment of volunteers. The boys were here 600 strong the keys of our beautiful city had been turned over to them. They had the right of way and ave plainly the guests of honor. They beg anarrivingWednesday and every incoming train has brought delegations. Early in the morning every company was well represent ed and the happy greetings, swapping of experiences of the past year, stories of the old days and promises for the future have been going on all day. The Huntington and Geneva bands, two of the best musical associations in this part of the state kept the air filled with inspiring music all day, both having arrived early that morning. C npany Bof this city acted as the reception committee and made every train. The biggest delegation arrived over the Clover Leaf shortly before noon, inoluling boys from Marion, Ellwood, Tipton, Lafayette, Logansport, M) ntpelier and other cities. They were met at the station by the bands and the comrades already here and escorted down street. The reunion is a grand success and everyone is praising the work of Presiding Colonel Frank Gessinger, on whose shoulders rested the responsibility of showing the visitors a good time. The day’s events will close with the camp fire, to bo given a t the court house, at which time an interesting program was given, and which is given complete on this page. Colonel Gunder, of Marion, with several hundred comrades from that city, and other Gas belt towns, arrived at 11:37 and were cheered as they marched gallantly down Winchester and Second streets to the court house. The business session was held at the court house at one o’clock, the principal matter of in terest being the selection of a meeting place for next year.

RECORD OF THE 160TH. The 160th regiment have an h< nGrable record and while they engaged in no’battles. no comrade felt the sting of bullet or the piercing wound from a bayonet, their bravery is undisputed. For just one year the boys in blue lived in camps all over the south, eat hard tack and army rations, eagerly awaiting the call that would lead them against the enemy. The 160th boys were true Americans. God bless them, and no braver regiment ever marched behind the flag of any nation of the globe. It is right that they should meet in annual reunion and it is right that our citizens extend to them the hand of genuine welcome. The regiment of which Company B, of thi- city was a part was composed of Company A, of Marion, B, Decatur. C, Lafayette; D, Wabash; E‘ Bluffton; F, Ossian and Montpelier G. Columbia City; I, Tipton; K. Huntington; L. Anderson; M, Logansport; with Colonel Gander, of Marion, in charge. Company B, of this city, was in charge of Captain El P. Miller, who shortly after the muster in was made a major and John M Lenhart was appointed captain. The 160th received orders April 26, IS9S, to report at Indianapolis at once, prepared to do duty in the Spanish American war. The following day found every man there anxious to be sent on at once. Three weeks were necessary to weed out those [physically unfitted; fiaually on May 16th the regiment was sent to Chickmauga. Then followed several months of camp life,tedious and monotonous to say the least, and when the order came for the 160th with other regiments to proceed to Newport News. Va., and from there to Porto Rico ,it was good tidings. At Newport however they were halted and finally sent to Lexington, Ky. a disappointed lot of soldiers. Admiral Schley had sunk Cervera's ships wev had captured Manilla, and the vftSfcy at San Juan practically decided the war. The boys expected daily to be sent home, but the next order took them to Columbus, Go., and early in January 1899 they were taken to Ma tanzas, Cuba, to do garrison duty. In the later part of March they were sent to Savannah, Ga., where they were mustered out April 25, 1899, Company B arriving home April 27th. just year to the very day from the time they left. The boys were warmly greeted and their wed

come home will be remembered by all our readers. The reunion of the 160th Indiana regiment is a matter of history, the visiting boys have Come an t g me, the greeting of old c imrades . is ovnr tor another year and the event w.*.* an entire success. The day was a perfect one for the occasion and the program was carried out, just as announced. It was noon before all the visiting delegaions arrived and consequently the business session was postponed from nine until one o’clock. At that hour the boys met at the court room and were called to order by Charles Peterson, of Columbia City, who acted in place of Colonel Frank Gessinger, who is on the sick list. Mr. Peterson performed his duties nicely and deserves the compliments he received for his executive ability. Carl Bonham, of Bluffton, permanent secretary of the organization, presided at the desk. Mayor D. D. Coffee delivered an address of welcome, turning the city over to our friends, the boys in blue. His remarks were happy and suitable for the occasion. The secretary read the minutes of the previous meeting, which were appro veil. The roll call was next in order and showed 300 members present, while many were here who did not register. A committee on resolutions was appointed, consisting of Captain Bender, of Company M. Dart Sewell, Company A. and Dillon Meyers Company E., who reported as follows: “We the committee on resolutions, submit rhe following: Whereas the members of Company B and citizens of Decatur have royally entertained the members of the Indiana Volunteer association, be it Resolved, that we the members of said association in meeting assembled do hereby extend to Company B and the citizens of Decatur our heartfelt thanks and due appreciation of their efforts in our behalf.” The resolutions was unanimously adopted A committee consisting of Colonel Gander, Marion, C. D. Scheverell, Warsaw, 1 and Jacob Britt, Bluffton, was appointed to .'an ange for ways and means for a future trip to Chicamauga park. A committee of one member from each company was then appointed to select the meeting place for 1905. They reported in a few moments, unanimously choosing Lafayette. Montpelier was second choice and will probably land the 1906 meeting. The election of officers was'the next matter of busi ness and resulted as follows: Charles Workoft, Lafayette.colonel, and following lieutenant colonels: Company A, Ollie Darter: B, Fred Vaughn, C, Fred Walch, D, Fred Martin: E. Ralph Thomas; F, Lew Wilson G, John Fulk; H, Walter H. Brubaker; Clarence Law; K, Milton Kitt; L, Robert O Connel; M, Wise Ayers; Jack Doyle of Company C was chosen quarter master. A resolution was proposed by Edgar M. Baldwin of the Farmount News, and was adopted: “Beit resolved that the colonel of this association be impowered to appniot a legislative committee of three whose duty it shall be to suggest and consider all measures as shall properly come before the Indiana state legislature relative to the benefit and welfare of the honorably discharged soldiers of the Spanish-American war.” Mr. Baldwin says his purpose is to secure if possible the passage of a measure whereby these ex-soldiers should have the preference in various appointments where physical strength is necessary and where civil veterans are unable to serve, the latter, however, to have first choice in all such appointments. The committee appointed included Edgar M. Baldwin, of Fairmount, chairman: Frank J. Wa’sh, Lafayette, and Dillon Meyers, of Bluffton THE DEATH PEN ALTY A little thing that sometimes results in death. Thus a mere scratch, insignificant cuts or puny boils have paid the death penalty. It is wise to have Bucklen’s Arnica Salve ever handy. It’s the best salve on earth and will prevent fata llity when burns, sores, ulcers and piles threaten.
