A few cases of sickness were reported from Co. E., but the general health of the company was very good. Thanks to Commissary John Zeigler and cooks Al. Kamerer and J as. Jamison, the boys had an abundance ol well cooked grub, and on that account the company cook tent was the popular resort of our many and Very welcome visitors. The visitors were a feature of this camp. It is not often that the annual outing is beid near enough to Butler to permit many ot the boy's lriends to see them as soldiers, so this opportunity was seized upon by very many. All were welcomo and all Edemed well pleased. H. D. Stover. Co. E's comedian, had the camp roaring with laughter at his quaintly humorous speeches. When his voice was heard all others were silent, and nearly the whole regiment would gather around him to enjoy the fun. One even ing be was carried bv his comrades into several of the company streets and forceil to spread his humor abroad. Hen. holds a warm place in the hearts of all his comrades. When the company returned to the Armory. Cap't McJunkin and Orderly Sergenl Scott made short commendatory addresses.
