ATTENTION, COMRADES!


It has been determined that we will send a copy of the pro- ceedings of our last reunion to each surviving comrade whose ad- dress we have. And we hope that those who have not already paid membership fees of dues, will remit said dues of one dollar, or send twenty-five cents, the cost of said pamphlet, to the undersigned treasurer of the association at Algona, low. All who signed our by-laws and became members of our association, whose names ap- pen on page to of this book, are entitled to a copy free of charge.


We are anxious that all who can will become members of our society, and if you will send one dollar to the treasurer and direct him to do so, he will inscribe your name on the roll making you a member, and you will be entitled to this book without additional cost. Unless this is done we hope you will send the 25 cents fie Stas Comrades let as not forget each other. Help a little in the good work. If you know of any conmade who served in our regiment whose name does not appear on our book, or whose address is changed, be kind enough to send his name and address to Capt. E. B. Soper, Em- metsburg, lowa.


By order of Executive Committee.


JAMES BARR, Treasurer, Algona, Kossuth Co. lowa.

EXPLANATORY_


In the preparation of this pamphlet, the Committee have labored under many disadvantages, all of which have had a tendency to delay its issue.


Those who have not had the trial, know but little of the annoyance and immense labor required in the preparation of a pamphlet of proceedings of any deliberative body, in the absence of matter which should have been prepared and kept at the time of meeting.


Many of the speeches were extemporaneous, and our Secretary not being able, with all his other duties, to keep ac- curate minutes of the proceedings, and there being no short hand reporter provided, the Committee found themselves almost entirely without the proper data from which to make up this pamphlet.


They were therefore compelled to commence a system of correspondence with the comrades who favored the Associa- tion with impromptu remarks, asking them to furnish as near- ly as possible what they said, so as to enable us to prepare something worthy of publication. Some replied, sending us the required matter, for which we take this opportunity to ex- press our sincere thanks, others replied, saying that it was im- possible for them to recollect what they said upon various sub- jects; others, that owing to important and pressing business engagements, it was impossible for them to comply; and others for some reason unknown to us did not reply at all.


We regret exceedingly, not only on our own account, but on account of all the comrades and all the readers of this pam- phlet, that we have been unable to procure some matter that we have considered almost indispensable, notably among which was the excellent address of welcome by our late Gov- ernor, the Hon. B. R. Sherman.
