Sixth Annual Reunion in Session Here to-day

As we go to press, the Seventy-fourth Indiana Infantry is in the midst of its sixth annual reunion, the attendance being quite fair. The headquarters were fixed at the Hotel Hays, where provisions have been made to take care of every surviving member of the regiment who may be here during the two days' reunion. The Seventy-fourth Indiana was organized in the autumn of 1862, and crossed over the Ohio at Louisville, just about the time that General Buel, at the head of the Army of the Cumberland, arrived at that place on his celebrated retreat in that year. The regiment was attached to the Army of the Cumberland and participated in nearly all the battles, skirmishes and raids of that great army, from the time it reached the command until the close of the war. It suffered greatly in the disastrous battle of Chickamauga, but the next year, under the command of General Sherman, it did its full duty in the memorable "hundred days under fire," known as the Atlanta campaign. After the capture of that place, it went on the March to the Sea, was in all the battles that followed the capture of Atlanta, and participated in that grandest of all the military pageants of modern times - the Grand Review at Washington City. This is only a hurried glance at the salient points in the history of the command as we have neither time nor space to go into details as to the record of the regiment. Suffice it to say that the regiment did its duty at all times and under all circumstances, and was one of the 154 regiments sent out by the old Hoosier State, not one of whom ever showed the "white feather" in the face of the enemy. Those who are in attendance are beginning to show grizzled looks as reminders that we are getting farther and farther away from the exciting days of the war period, but we earnestly hope that every veteran present will bully enjoy the reunion, and the commingling once more together, and in a renewal of the ties that are known to no other people in such a way as it is among the men who marched, bivouacked, hungered, fought, and were wounded together, and who buried their dead comrades on many distant fields. There will be many renewals of old friendships to-day and to-morrow, and every one wishes for the "old vets" a pleasant time.


The Survivors of the Seventy-fourth Indiana Enjoying Themselves.

All of yesterday was taken up in the receiving the Veterans of the Seventy-fourth Indiana Infantry, as they arrived in this place preparatory to celebrating their Sixth Annual Reunion. Men could be seen shaking hands with comrades whom they had not seen since the final muster-out, and, many enjoyed talking over old times, recalling reminiscences of the exciting period, which they had met to celebrate. Nearly every train brought additions to the number, and as soon as they arrived, the committee for that purpose had their names registered, issued tickets to each, and provided them with a badge of the regiment. The following comprises a list of those present, the names, of course, being confined to the Seventy-fourth regiment, although there were ex-Soldiers from other Commands present, also:

During the day an informal meeting was held in the rooms of Henry Post, G.A.R., but the first gathering, as fixed on the program, was at 7 o'clock p.m. at which hour the Veterans met at the Hotel Hays, and, escorted by Bass's Juvenile Drum Corps, marched to Lakeside Park, the point fixed for holding the Camp Fire. Arriving the designated place, the gathering was called to order by the President, Nicholas P. Cook, prayer being offered by the Rev. J.Q. hall, of the Presbyterian church, of this city. The quartette of vocalist, to the deep regret of the managers of the Reunion, for some reason, utterly disappointed them, and as a consequence, the boys had to do their own singing, which, after a break or two, they did very well. Comrade Dawson was called to the chair to officiate as manipulator of the program, and after a few remarks of a telling nature, introduced Mayor Royse, who had bee selected to make the Address of Welcome, and splendidly, eloquently and patheticly did he fulfill his part, as he always does. His address was at times most touching, and in many faces we saw the starting tear, as the Mayor, in his deep-toned, impassioned manner, touched upon the "unreturning braves" whose unknown graves are scattered all over the South. Following Mayor Royce, Comrade Rich delivered quite an address in place of the speakers, who at the last moment disappointed the management also, and he again was followed by several others, whose names we could not get. The Camp Fire broke up at a late hour, all having had a very pleasant time. At 8 o'clock this morning, under the lead of Bass's Drum Corp, the survivors of the Seventy-fourth wended their way to Lakeside Park, where they were to attend to the business features of the Reunion, the election of officers, and fixing upon a place for the next Reunion. This afternoon they will be the guests of the Beyer Brothers, at Spring Fountain Park, and will be shown the Cyclorama of Lookout Mountain and Missionary Ridge. The boys have apparently has a very pleasant time at their Sixth Annual Reunion, and were loud in their praises of the hospitality extended them by the people of Warsaw.

Reunion Notes.

Jerry Kuder, known to every one, was greeted most cordially by his old comrades. Jerry is among the few Indiana boys who received a Congressional Medal-an emblem which he is now wearing.

At about 4 o'clock all the members of the Regiment present were assembled in front of the Court-house and had their photographs taken. This will be quite a souvenir of the Warsaw meeting in after years.

S. B. Gay, of Etna Green, attended the Reunion of his regiment, of course, and also gave this office a call. While here he ordered a copy of The Indianian Republican sent to a friend in Ohio - an example that other could follow to advantage.

Joseph Kelly made quite an improvement in registering the names of the member of the regiment, as they arrived, taking down their names in alphabetical order and designating a department in his book for each company and for the field and staff, making it a very convenient arrangement.

Elias Popham, of Minneapolis, Kansas, came back to his old home in this county to attend the reunion of the Seventy-fourth - his old regiment. Mr. Popham was wounded at Chickamauga , and also carried off the field of Jonesboro, Ga., receiving his second wound at that place. He was glad to be once more with is old comrades.

A large number of the survivors of the Seventy-fourth gave this office a call during their visit to the city. We are always glad to meet any one who, unlike Daniel W. Voorhees, was true to the country when that country needed their services. Dan spouts a good deal now about being a friend to the soldier, but then it was dangerous for the gentleman to ride on the same train with soldiers - owing to a difference of opinion on a very important question.
