Glover was hit, and was with him'at the tlme of his death. Co. C, 103d Infantry lost at -that time a firm friend and a trusty lleutenant. We all missed him. Would be glad to hear from your "post adjutant as to the doings of the | post and its members. 1 remain, ‘ A COMRADE, 1 BYRON A. KALLGUN, f Munson, Maine. Post Adjutant, Oral A.

The doors were thrown open at 7:30 and from that time until long after 11 o'clock a steady stteam of curious visitors In- spetted the various departments com- prising the three floors and basement of tha:store, extending their hearty wishes for the success of the new en- terprime. Mfr. Leland. the local member of the clothing firm, was remembefed by local and out-of-town friends with handsome floral pleces and messages of congratulntion. The flowers were conspicuously displayed. Representa- tives of firms with which the company deals throughout the country were either on hand personally to join In the first formal inspection, or cabled their regrets at being unable to be present. Store managers of the Besse System in other cities were also rep- resented as were members of some of the leading clothing and department store firms in New England. \ musical program was provided by Lynch's orchestra from the opening to the closing of the store. At 8:30 o'clock this morning the regnlar working schedule was put-into effect with more than 50 clerks on hand to take care of the day's business.
