DRUMMER STILES BEATS ASSEMBLY.
Charles B. Stiles, of this city, the drummer of Company A, composed chiefly of Elgin men, played his drum at an upper window in the city hall and at II o'clock the veterans assembled for their meeting. Major George D. Sherman, of Elgin, president of the society, called the meeting to order and for several minutes letters of regret from comrades living at too great a distance to attend were read.
