Soldier's Encampment.
At East Towanda, Tuesday, Wennesday and
Thursday, October 11,12 and 13, 1881.
{Circular.]
The time is drawing near for the annual
encampment of the Grand Army and the sol
diers and sailors of this and adjoining coun
ties, it being October 11th, 12th and 13th.
The commander wishes to inform the
comrades that every effort on his part, is be
ing put forth to make it a success and lie
wishes the co-operation of every soldier in
the county.
Unlooked for delays in making announce- j
ments have occurred and could not be avoi- i
ded. But at last we have almost completed i
arrangements for one of the best speakers in
the country, and many of the prominent gen- j
erals of the late war have been invited, and
|
it is believed from the favorable replies that j
a large number of them wili be present.
Capt. Olmstead's Battery L., 7th division,
N. G. of N. Y., of Bingbamton, with fifty
men two pieces and a band of music, are de
sirous of attending the encampment, and the
arrangements are so far advanced that there
is hardly a doubt that they will lie fully com
pleted, and the battery join us during the en
campment.
The Owego Zouaves have been invited and
will no doubt be on hand.
The Franklin Guards, of Athens, are also
expected to attend.
Each Post in the county is making strong
efforts to turn out in large numbers and un
der good discipline.
It is now believed that this encampment
will be the largest gathering of the kind ever
eld in Towand a.
Full announcements will be given next
week. Let everybody prepare for a good
time.
