The Barnesville Gazette. Barnesville, Georgia, July 17, 1890

Concord, Ga., July 12, 1890.
Editor Gazette
Barnesville, Ga.,

Dear Sir: - I am authorized to say to the surviving members of No. S. 27th Regt.

Ga., Volt.; that they have agreed to meet each other in Concord, Ga. on the 23rd

inst. and be there on the 24 inst. to take part in the County Reunion. That will

take place on the day above mentioned. Each and every one of them are cordially 
invited to meet at Concord on the night of July 23rd and we hope as many as 
possible can, will meet us. And we hope as many of all the other commands as can

will meet [with us on] the above date mentioned. [Unreadable-page torn] that 
politics and everything of the kind will be left at home. We further hope that 
each one will be able to lay aside all prejudice, at least for the day. Let each

one come prepared to invest or take part in that particular love that only 
soldiers can feel for each other.

As this notice goes to the Gazette by request of one of the committee of 
arrangements of the old company above mentioned, I hope that Barnesville's old 
artillery men will be present on that occasion if he has been forced to wear his

old Grey Uniform.

Respectfully,
G.W. Strickland,
Concord, Ga.
