Teresa and list, For those of you with people who are listed in the index on p. 30, I'm posting the page now in it's entirety. For many of you, this will be the *only* mention of a particular surname in the whole book, so please read this page so I don't have to repeat it over and over. Please check the index of names and page numbers in my original posting to the list on this subject and include the page numbers in your lookup requests (email direct to me, please). Also, please take a look at my replies to individual requests, as I'm receiving requests for pages I've already posted to the list in reply to a request, but that may include several other surnames. Thanks.

The survivors of the 6th Tennessee Cavalry held their 6th reunion at the Laughlin Springs where the regiment was encamped and organized in August of 1862. The day was pleasant, and there was a large attendance. J.J. SWAIN was master of ceremonies, and the exercises were opened by prayer by H.D. MAXEDON. The Montzuma band discoursed good music during the day. By the way this band has improved so that now it is [a] real good band in any county. They are a nice lot of young men of which we are all proud. At the special request of the veterans, J.W. PURVIANCE delivered the welcome address which was responded to by Horry HODGES in his usual felicitous manner. Dinner was announced, and an hour and a half was spend [sic] in everyone filling to the brim on the many magnificent spreads to which all had welcome access. To the family of William PIGGOTT, at least all of the Selmer contingent of orators and others are under gratitude for one of the most bountiful and complete spreads they ever faced. Terry ABERNATHY was the first speaker after dinner. He as usual, delivered an interesting and able historical address on the wars in which American soldiers were so victoriously engaged. The young people of the Liberty School sang a song which did credit to each and was cheered by the throng. Honorable P.H. THRASHER was the next speaker and gave in his usual earnest style many incidents of the war and some of the evils which now exist in the land and the remedies. By special request, J.W. PURVIANCE closed in a brief speech to the courting boys and girls. He gave them some wholesome advice on when to marry and whom to sellect. He sharply critized [sic] the young and giddy puppy love marriage which seldom prove happy and wise. The following is a list of veterans both home and visiting: Company A: J.W. Swain, W. A. Laughlin, E.W. Hester, J.L. Robinson, W.J.N. Rose, J.W. Hester, H.C. Moore, H.V. Flower, J.R. Wilson, S.W. Fish. Company B: J.T. Gage, J.F. Floyd, E.S. Bassham, W.W. Kerby, J.C. Maxwell, J.D.
