Dear folks: ---------- Stumbling along looking for something else to excite the gray matter between my ears...I found an old beat up copy of a book that had five seperate rubber stamps inside including my local library. -------------------- It was compiled by Paul L. ROY of Gettysburg, PA in 1950. It was published and distributed by THE BOOK MART, Gettysburg, PA. ------------------------------ Page 52 banner says "The Last Reunion of the Blue and Gray" and next on page 53 the banner states "Tented City". ---------------------------------------- They took great pains to notify all of those who attended the 50th reunion in 1913 to make reservations to the 1938 gathering. Needless to say the number of responses were appropriate due to the fact that time has stretched its arm out to call them home. -------------------------------------------------- The GEORGIA attendees are listed on page 52 and 53. Note that the organization is listed as U-Union and C-Confederate. The upper page that lists some FLORIDA soldiers were already torn from page. Sad commentary. ------------------------------------------------------------ The soldiers responding and attending the 75th reunion were: C-BRASWELL, Jacob Green of 502 Giles Street, Macon, GA.
