At a recent meeting of the association it was determined to have another re- union, to take place in New Orleans on Monday next, March 4th, which promises now to be grander than that of last year. Capt. W.T. Ratliff, of Raymond, who commanded a battery under the late Gen. Wirt Adams, has been specially invited to participate in the ceremonies, and will likely do so. Others there are in Hinds County who shed glory on the cause they espoused. These should attend also, and help make the occasion not only a grand but memorable one.
