Arrangements Are Baking for Reunion of the 87th Regiment.

Col. Edwin P. Hammond, of Lafayette, met a number of the members of the 87th Indiana volunteers in Rensselaer Saturday and started arrangements for the annual reunion of the regiment, which will be held this year on Sept. 22nd and 23rd in Rensselaer. Thos. Crockett was made chairman of the arrangements committee, C. P. Wright, chairman of the program committee, and Shelby Grant, chairman of the reception committee. The committees will meet with Mr. Wright at his office Tuesday night, at which time the program will be discussed and probably completed. The invitations, or rather, the cards of reminder, will be sent out within a few days, 200 being printed. They will be mailed to every surviving comrade of whom the secretary, D. H. Yeoman, has the address. It is hoped to make the reunion one of the best in recent years.
