FIFTIETH REUNION IS LAST

Seven Connecticut War Veterans Anewer Roll Call and Disband for All Time. Hartford, Conn.—Seven sturdy old men, survivors of Company E, Twentysecond regiment of Connecticut volunteers of 1861, held their fiftieth and last reunion and then disbanded. The regiment, which saw some of the hardest fighting of the final campaign of the war, was recruited for the most part from Hartford and vicinity. For the last few years not more than a handful has been mustered at the reunions, deaths, illness and feeble health making steady inroads on the roll call. Those at the final reunion were: W. O. Buckley. Windsor; EL Warren Waters, Brooklyn, N. Y.; Thomas J. Nawton, New Haven; James Boyle, Noroton; Henry H. Cornwall, Roxbury, Mass.; Walter Mason, Meriden, and Hector W. Storrs, North Haven.
