Johnston Camp, No. 34, United Confederate Veterans, Dalton, Ga. There are doubtless few who know that Camp Joseph E. Johnston. No. 34, United Confederate Veterans, was the first camp ever organized in the South, but such is a fact. While the camp is designated No. 34, it is rreally entitled to first place. It came about in this way: The camp was organized August 18, 1891, and on January 11, 1892, together with thirty-three others at New Orleans, received its charter, or permit, from General John B. Gordon and the quotation, "The first shall be last" -was literally verified. The following were the first officers: A. P. Roberts, Commander: B. M. Thomas, Vice-commander; W. K. Moore, Vice-commander; J. A. Blanton, Adjutant; Fred Cappes, Treasurer. There were about thirty-five charter members, among them were: C. D. McCutchen. John R. Tarver, R. J. McCamy, L. H. Tinsley, J. W. Barrett, J. F. Denton, A. W. Lynn, Jesse A. Glenn, Judson C. Clements, John W. Brooker, W. H. Brooker, J. G. McAfee, C. P. Gordon, John Black, Geo. W. Anderson, James H. Hamilton, Geo. W. Hamilton, H. C. Hamilton, R. P. O'Neill, Thomas Jolley, Warren R. Davis, T. H. Pitner, W. H. Pruden, B. K. Hix, John Sansom, and T. H. Pitner. Captain A. P. Roberts was the initial organizer, and for years was the chief executive, and was untiring in his efforts to build up the camp. The selection of the name was a most happy one, and very appropriate, on account of Dalton having been headquarters, at one time, of General Johnston, the great strategist of the sixties.
