The evening began with an escal- loped oyster supper, served at 7.45. The four color bearers of the Relief Corps, Gertrude Johnson, Elena Les- ter, Annie L, Rawson and Lena Pukal- lus, made an arch at the door of the banquet room under which the com- pany marched to the tables, while Geer's orchestra played one of the old wartime tunes, and when all were at their places the color bearers made an escort for those who were to sit at the head table.

She asked him to stand so that all right see him and he was_given much applause as he rose and acknowledged the greeting in a few words. Later he told to some of his friends what he saw of the surrender. He was sergeant-major of the Tenth Connecti- cut, For three days, he said. the reg- iment had been doing forced marches in pursuit of the fleeing Confederates and on the night of the 8th of April, 1865, they marched all night and up 14 until 2 o'clock the next morning, when they halted and prepared to bivouac for a while. They had just about got their fires lighted when they heard firing off to the right and got orders to move on the double quick. When they had gone about a quarter of a mile they came upon Custer's cav- alry, which had digmounted, and was engaged with the Confederates. Mov- ing by the flank, the Tenth swung around to get Into position to attack the enemy, when Mr, Thornton said they heard more fring off to the right, firing that sounded different from what had gone before: and seemed to be into the air. Soon the word was passe dalong that Lee had sent in ask- ing for the terms of surrender and the attack the Union forces were about to male was halted. The location, said Mr. Thornton, into which the Comfederate army had been driven was a sort of depression, and as he looked around toward the hills in all directions he could see long lines of Union soldiers moving in from évery side. Soon after this the Union wagon train came up, the rebel army was given three davs’ rations, and the tired Connecticut Tenth was glad to drop o to sleep and know nothing more of what was going on for several hours.

Hartford, April 9.—The legislative committee’ on appropriations gave hearings Friday afternoon at the State capitol on bills providing for appro- priations in aid of the hospitals of the state. Senator Barnes and President Williams and Treasurer Woodward of ithe Willlam W. Backus hospital, Nor- wich, appeared in the interests of that institution, requesting a remewal of the annual appropriation of $5,000. The senator sald that for _several years the hospital had declined to ac- cept the regular appropriation of $ 000, and would not ask for it now if it were not necessary. He said they, do need the money, and that the com- mitte would believe him when he said so specially as he was not on the “Dishonor List” of the suffragettes. Mr. Woodward reiterated what the senator had said in regard to the act- ion of the trustees declining the state aid during a period of mistaken econ- omy, as the needed improvements in the institution had proven.. However, the state had saved some $60,000 by the transaction, and now the hospital trustees asked the customary $5,000 a year of state aid. He said that if any one hospital in the state was more de- serving of state aid than another, that one was the Backus hospital.
