Samuel Jessup, D.D., of Beruit, Syria, late Chaplain of the Post, was read by his brother, Adjutant H.C. Jessup.

Conrad, Esq., of Glenwood, and Hon. G.R. Resseguie, of South Gibson, were present and made remarks, the latter stating that he was at the surrender of Gen. Lee at Appomattox. This called out the fact that some other Comrades present were also there, after which there was a general talk, which was kept up until a late hour before adjournment.
Lenox - Saturday's thunderstorm was quite severe for the first of the season. Lightening struck a tree in W. Jeffers’ sugar camp and made a hole through the bottom of a tin bucket hanging on the tree as large as a good sized pea.
