    VOL. LXXXII.
PROPOSE RISTURY OF REGIMENT 43,
The Washington A tevolalion of the Bar.
vivors of the Regimsat Have Matters
in Charge,
The 45th Regiment Pa. Vol. Inf., al.
though not entirely a Centre Ceunty
Regiment, was composed very largely of
men from this county. Companies A.
D and E were practically entirely 0. E
was largely so. No other county in the
state, therefore, was or is so greatly in-
terested in this Regiment ae Centre, Its
number was the first after the Pennsyl-
vania Reserve Corps.
Authority for its recruiting was given
both by the Secretary of War and the
governor of the state before the three
months’ men were mustered out of ser.
vice, To a very considerable extent,
men who had been in service for the
three months re-enlisted in the 45th.
Its colonel, Thomas Welsh, was Lieu-
tenant Colonel of the 2nd Regiment in
the three months’ service, the arrange-
ment for the organization of the 45th
having been made by him and Lieut.
Beaver of H Company in that Regiment,
who became the Par Colonel of
the 45th. Col. Welsh, being placed in
command of Camp Curtin by Gov.
Curtin, was prevented from. giving his
personal attention to the recruiting of
the Regiment, but as commander of
Camp Curtin he had special advantages
in the selection of companies to compose
it. To this circumstance is no doubt
largely due the exceptional character of
the make up of the Regiment as to its
personnel. The Regiment had a re-
markable career in many respects,
particularly in the territorial extent of
its service, the number and variety of
its campaigns and the brilliant record
which it made in all of them
An effort is now being made by the
Washington, D. C., Association of the
Survivors of the 45th Pennsylvania
Volunteer Infantry to prepare and have
ublished a history of the Regiment.
Vith commendable energy, care and
diligence, this little Association, com-
psed of less than a half dozen survivors,
pe R. C. Cheeseman and Nelson
Lucas, of this county being of the num-
ber (vajor Cheeseman being the Presi-
dent of the Association), has prepared a
complete roster of the survivors as a
oreliminary to the preparation of the
Pe itself. This roster, of course, is
not perfect. The names of men
who are dead are included therein and a
number who are living are 1 luded
for various reasons. The Association,
however, is revising the list and will
ublish a new edition in the
sSOIne
re
inaoia
near future.
I'he surprising thing about the roster is
that it gives the names of nearly 500
survivors out of 1960 men who were “at
different times in the Regiment. How
ing for the inclusion of men who no
longer living and the exclusion of men
who ought to be included in this roster,
there are doubtless 450 surv
much as the state of Per
400 copies of each regime history
certified by the governor, the Adjutant
General and Auditor Geperal as being
worthy of the name, at a price not ex-
ceeding $2.00 per volume, it is easy to
see that there will be no difficulty in
publishing and disposing of an edition of
at least 1000. Several of the comrades
have already sub-cribed for a number of
volumes each, running from two to
twelve.
The character of the volume is not
yet determined, If a suitable person
can be secured to write the history from
the material which will be furnished by
the survivors, that plan may be adopted,
or a general editor may be chosen who
will revise the manuscripts submitted
by the survivors, so as to preserve the
characteristics of the different writers.
There will probably be a reunion of
the survivors in the month of Septem
ber and the Washington Association ex-
pects to have its plans in such shape
that they may be submitted to the sur.
vivors at this reunion for definite adop-
tion, and it is hoped that a committee
will there be named who will give im-
mediate and careful attention to the de-
tails of the preparation of the history.
We very heartily commend to the
survivors of the Regiment this enter-
prise, which ought to appeal to everyone
who was in any way connected with or
interested in it. From the interest
which has been manifested by the sur-
vivors in Centre county, there is no
doubt whatever as to doing their full
share in the preparation of the material
for the history and of taking the num-
ber of copies when published which
would seem to be their proportion of the
edition, whatever it may be.
We hope the splendid beginning made
by the Washington Association will be
continued and will find hearty encour-
agement and co-operation on the part
of all the survivers of the Regiment.

ANOTHER SUICIDE,
Merrill Hoy Ends His Life With a Ballet
at Pera Station,
During the quiet hours of Friday
morning Merrill Hoy ended his life
by a shot from a revolver whilesitting
ina buggy at Peru Station, west of
Pleasant Gap. He was found early in
the morning by Farmer W. E. Crust,
who lives nearby. Mr. Crust saw a
‘horse hitohed to a buggy grazing near
the station, and a form he took to be
that of a man sitting in the buggy.
The peculiar conditions aroused his
curiosity, and suspecting something
was wroog, he set out to investigate
He was, however, shocked to find that
the occupant of the buggy was dead,
and that it was the son of his neigh-
bor, Harvey Hoy. It only required =»
bit of investigation to reveal that
either a murder had been committed,
or the man nad taken his own life, as
the wound on the right side of his
head sbove the ear was plainly visible
The man was leaning
his head between the
buggy top.

Although but twenty-two years of
sage, Merrill Hoy, to some extent at
least, led a somewhat checkered career,
A short time previous to committing
the rash deed noted sbove, he forged a
check on his brother William. The
check was for $150, and waa presented
to Sim Baum, ia Bellefonte in pay-
ment of a small bill for clothing The
difference was paid to Hoy in cash,
and Baum passed the check to the
bank, where Willismn Hoy's credit
was enough to cover the amount,
Later the check was declared a forgery,
sud in the meantime the forger dis
appeared. It appears he went to New
York, the family having bad a card
from him while in that state,
Thursday afternoon prior to the sui-
cide, Hoy esme up from Spring Mills,
where he had been staying for seversl
days with Samuel Stover on the
Grenoble farm, on the L. & T. railroad,
to Centre Hall, and went to the Old
Fort hotel. From there he telephoned
to Liveryman Boozer for a horse and
buggy, saying he wished to go to Le-
mont. He was questioned why he
bad not taken the train, and gave
some evasive answer. He represented
as being Harry Peters, a salesman.
From the Oid Fort he walked to Cen-
tre Hall, secured the horse and buggy

road.
It appears Hoy went from here to

The consensus of opinion in the
community is that rendered by the
coroner's inqaest, viz, that Hoy com-
mitted suicide.

The Grange Eacampment,
The prospects for the Urange En-
campment and Fair, at Centre Hall,
during the week of Beptember 13th, ls
unusually bright. A number of im-
provements on the grounds have been
going on for the past three months
which will tend to better serve the
publie,
Last year every tent on the grounds
was occupled, and the applicants were
not all accommodated, and this con-
dition led the management to secure
additional tents this year. Camping is
one of the most pleasant features of
this gathering. The tents are twelve
by twelve feet, with 4-foot walls, fl vored
and are furnished with table, bunk
and camp seats, leaving nothing for
the tenter to take with hifa except bed
clothing. A number of stoves are also
conveniently located over the camp-
ing section of the grounds, which are
for the free use of campers. The rental
for tents is three dollars, with no ex-
tra charges for any of the other
accommodations furnished by the
management,
The exhibits of machinery, farm im-
plements, ete, will be larger than
ever this year, and the display of the
products of the field, orchard and
vineyard, will, as heretofore, be larger
and finer than is found at most county
fairs,
