D). W. PATTY, Secretary,
MY DEAR COMRADE :-- Present my sincere regrets to our comrades for my absence at our reunion, which I have looked forward to with a sincere desire and expectation of attending. But as you know I am a delegate to the National Encamp- ment and can not get leave to attend both meetings. While my inclination is to attend our own Association's reunions it is duty that I should attend the G. A. R. Encampment be- cause I have the honor of representing the third district as a delegate.
Well Patty, I want you and comrades Morris and Dun- can to tell the comrades all about the grand turnout of our regiment on their last march behind the dear, old flag of the 5th Indiana Cavalry, that we all followed during the long. dark night of the Civil War and how we four carried it back and restored it to its last resting place, perhaps never more to pass in grand review. Indeed it was a great privilege to have seen with your own eyes the grand stand after the deposit of the flags, festooned as it was with the old, battle-scarred flags, surrounded by tens of thousands of upturned faces with moist eyes, in memory of the loved ones who followed those sacred

colors. That scene has given me new hope in the patriotista of the masses of the people.
Well dear comrade, I hope this reunion will be the best and numerously attended of any in all the years gone by, there are enough living members of the dear old regiment to make it so. Tell all the boys and girls present howdy for me (they never get old in my eyes). And may God in his mercy shower you all with his blessings is the prayer of your comrade
R. P. FINNEY.

D. W. PATTY,
DEAR SIR AND COMRADE :-- Notice of the reunion of the old boys of the 5th Cavalry received yesterday 3rd inst. I regret very much my inability to be with the boys on this oc- casion, but be sure that my heart will be there, life size. Will you kindly give all the boys my best regards and if the good Lord spares my life the coming year I will try to be with you at the next reunion.
. Yours,
M. H. SOPER. LILLY ILLS., Sept. 12, 1902.
DEAR COMRADES :- Again I find myself unable to meet with you this fall, have not been well since the ist of June. I would love to meet with you all once more, give my love to all the boys, if we should never meet here on earth again I hope we will meet in the sweet by and byc

D. W. PATTY, Secretary 5th Ind. Cavalry Association:
MY DEAR COMRADE :- I am in receipt of the invitation to attend the reunion of the old 5th Ind. Cav. at Greenfield, Ind. on the 16-17, inst. It brings most vividly to my mind the last reunion I attended before leaving for California, which was held at Greenfield. It makes my heart thrill yet to think of the open handed hospitality with which we were received by the old comrades of Co. G. and of the good citi- zens of Greenfield, I have seen nothing to exceed it unless it

was the marvelous capacity of the boys to stow away the good things set before them in their baraacks. It would warm up my old heart again to meet with you and greet my old com rades again. On the appointed day I will be with you in thought and in spirit and hope you will have the time of your lives. Say, Dave, that invitation you got up was not only novel but worthy of its author. Remember me most kindly to all the visiting comrades and assure them that I would be most happy to take them by the hands, the distance is too great and my business pressing so I will not be with you.
Very truly, J. K. HAUGH. NEODESHA, KAN.
The report of the 19th Annual Reunion at hand, I am always glad to hear of the old boys meeting and having a good time, I am too old to try to meet with you any more. On the Ist of May 1864 at Camp Nelson my horse fell with me and injured my back, which has troubled me ever since. Am drawing a pension for wounds received at Henderson's Mills, Oct. 11, 1863. Wishing you all many more happy re- unions
I am faithfully yours, A. J. JOHNSON, Co. F. OAK VALLEY, KAN., Sept. 10, 1902.
D. W. PATTY,
DEAR COMRADE :- Your invitation to the 20th Annual Reunion at hand, thanks for former reports of the meetings of our Association. CHESTER S. WILLIAMS, Co. I. POLLOCK, MO.
DEAR COMRADE: - Your cordial invitation to meet you in reunion at Greenfield on the 16th and 17th inst. to call in me- morial the days of battle strife and war's turmoil is to hand. I am sorely sorry that circumstances are such that I cannot be with you in person, but in spirit of true patriotism I am with you all. My extreme old age and ill health renders it impossible to meet with you. Give my sincere regards to all and fervent wishes for the welfare and happiness of all the survivors of the old 5th. JOHN D. SMART.

DEAR COMRADE: The 19th Annual Report of our Regi- imental Association received, please accept my thanks. It would give me great pleasure to mect with you once more. but 1 am afraid it will never be. I am with you in spirit however if 1 cannot be in person. With greetings to all
I am yours,
H. C. VEACH, Co. C. ZURICH, KAN., Sept. 8, 1902. DEAR OLD COMRADES :- It would be a great pleasure to incet with you and talk over the battles, skirmishes and scouts through which we were engaged together and alas the month> that we spent in those horrid prison pens of the South, which ruined the health and made life so unpleasant for so many of our brave comrades. Please excuse me from answering al roll call on the 16th inst. My health is poor and the dis- tance so great, being one thousand miles, makes it impossible to be there. 1 still hope to meet you in reunion again and sit around the camp fire and call to mind the stirring scenes and incidents of the days of yore. Please send me report.
C. H. GRAHAM, Co. F. Regards to all.
PARIS, FRANCE, October 25, 1902. MR. DAVID PATTY, Carmel, Indiana.
DEAR SIR AND COMRADE :- 1 did not receive your letter in time to answer before the reunion. I cabled you that day, which I hope you received, and that the reunion was a great success. It gives me pleasure to enclose herewith $5.00 for the expense fund. Hoping I may soon receive the annual re- port, and with best wishes, I am
Yours in F. C. and L., Joux K. Gowny.

CONCLUSION.
DEAR COMRADES .- We forward you this Report of our Twentieth Annual Reunion, hoping that you will pardon the delay in getting it out, which delay has been owing to the poor health of the Secretary, who has been ill the greater portion of the winter. Our next meeting will be held in the city of Portland, Ind., October 14 and 15, 1903, your attend- ance is earnestly requested. We fully expect Col. Butler to be with us on the occasion. Comrade Lou Bruner writes that the citizens of Portland are greatly pleased to have us meet there this year and assures free entertainment to all members of the Association who may attend; that more per- sons have asked to entertain comrades than therc will be comrades present.
We again call your attention to our Roster which contains a number of names of comrades without P. O. address. There are doubtless other names on the Roster of comrades who are deceased as we do not hear from them. Now com- rades we again urge you to carefully go over the rolls and where there is a mistake in spelling, name or l'. O. address omitted, or the comrade deceased, please notify the Secretary giving the necessary correction.
Comrade, as a member of the Association, you are entitled to a copy of this Report which is sent to all the members, and as the cost of getting up and mailing these Reports, notify- ing the comrades of the time of meeting, together with other incidental expenses, costs the Association about $100 per year, and these expenses are borne by a comparatively few members, and as the reports are for all the members of the

FIFTH INDIANA CAVALRY ASSOCIATION.
Association and are surely interesting to all the comrades. we do deem it right to call on you for a small contribution from 20c to $1.00 as you may feel able. If, however, you were present at the last Rennion and contributed or done so by letter, you are not asked for anything. If you have not attended the recent meetings or written the Secretary, please acknowledge the receipt of the Report so that we may know that we have your correct address.
Hoping to meet you at Portland next October, we are Yours in F. L. C. D. W. PATTY, Secretary. W. W. ANGEL, President.
HOMESICK
BY EZRA B. NEWCOMB
I was born in Indiany -an' I'm pinin' to git back From these prairie-winds 'at howl, an' snarl, an' moan around my shack; From this empty, endless wideness, stretchin' fur as ye can see, 'An' my heart's a purt' nigh breakin' fer the sight o' jest one tree.
I was raised in Indiany-an' I'm wishin' I was back Where the shiftin', shinin' Wabash cuts its twistin', trailin' track,
Plowin' through the rus'lin' corn-fields, loafin' un- der hangin' boughs,
Where they's pools to hide the fishes, an' they's shade to cool the cows.
My old home's in Indiany-an' I'm heartsick to git back!
Them cricks an' woods hes got a tongue these lone- some prairies lack;
Fer they's nothin' here but silence-'cept the never- endin' cry
O' the winds, 'at moan an' mourn ontel ye think ye'll shorely die.
An' ye hain't no wish fer livin', an' the dearest thing ye crave
Is to die, an' hev it over-ef they'll only make yer grave Back there in Indiany where the Wabash twists an' turns,
Where the sun fics utes te-shine on,-and -ike autumn color burns;
-
Where the sycamore's crook'd branches shows the way the river goes,
An' across the yallerin' corn-fields ye can hear the cry o' crows; While the leaves is drappin' sof'ly-Nachur's tears fer days 'at's dead-
An' 'mongst the hick'ry's trimblin' boughs the squirrel perks his head;
Where the oak an' maple colors make the woods a kind o' hint
O' the land yer lookin' fer at last, an' seem to ketch a glint O' the glory streamin' down'ards through a break in Heaven's wall
An' in the whisp'r'n' silences ye hear the angels call !
Indiany's purt' nigh Heaven ! An' I'm wishin' I was home.
If they's them 'at's thinkin' dif'er'nt, they've got license fer to roam; .. .. . . .
