Dear Comrade: The “Old Eighth Ohio, McKinley’s Own” will hold its Annual Reunion in Canton, Ohio, the home of our Commander-in-Chief William McKinley, on Sunday, August 31st and Monday, September 1st, (Labor Day) and we hope to see every man who served in the regiment who is living on this occasion, and for those who have passed to the great beyond, a Memorial Service will be conducted by our old Chaplain, J. O. Campbell. This service will be Sunday P. M. at the McKinley Monument.
Headquarters will be at the Hotel Courtland where you will please report to register.
A fine program is being arranged for Monday, but we assure you you will not be bored by long speeches. An old-time “talkfest” and get-together meeting and Company reunions. Please sign and mail the enclosed card whether you can be with us or not, as we want the address of all comrades. Try and arrange to be with us of possible, if you cannot, send a word of greeting on the card.
- “Come on buddy, Let’s Go.”
