f all these, beside myself, I believe that only two survive: Junius Hardaway, of Crewe, Va., and James Farley, of Blackstone, Va. Having been asked the question as to myself, will say: I enlisted in my company in March, 1862, at the age of 17, was in 26 battles and surrendered at Appomattox April 9th, 1865. Mr. Clay, who by occupation is a collector and clerk, has resided in Baltimore since 1868 and lives with his family at 666 West Fayette street. Mr. and Mrs. Clay were married in Petersburg, Va., in 1866. Of their 11 children 6 survive. Virginians should proudly erect statues to the three fearless and gallant generals who led their brigades—less than 5,000 strong—in the world-famous charge of Pickett's Division at Gettysburg: Garnett, killed on the enemy's line; Armistead, mortally wounded, with his hand on a captured cannon; and Kemper, left for dead, but rescued from the grave by a Sister of Charity, to become Governor of Virginia, and spread on enduring canvas, the battl

Returned Confederate States' flags. [special to the times-dispatch, October 28, 1905.] Intensely interesting exercises that closed the Eighteenth Annual reunion of the Grand camp of the Confederate Veterans of Virginia. Address of Hon. John Lamb. The custody of unidentified flags to be the Confederate Memorial literary Society, Richmond, Va. Petersburg, Va., October 27, 1905.—The crowning event of the Eighteenth Annual Reunion of the Grand Camp, Confederate Veterans of Virginia, was the closing scene to-night—the ceremony of receiving from the Commonwealth the captured Virginia flags that by Act of Congress had been returned to the State by the United States Government. The ceremony was purely sentimental and figurative, but it was glorious. It was the act of turning over to the keeping of the men who fought under them, the battle flags of Virginia's brave companies, battalions and regiments. The committee appointed by the camp at the morning session to go to

Field of blood was the Crater. From the times-dispatch, Nov. 12, 1905. Address delivered at reunion of Mahone's men in Petersburg.
