Murray Mack as commander, Captain George W. Potts as vice commander, and Lieutenant Arthur C. Little as adjutant. The dinner was presided over by Lieutenant Colonel Thomas B. Spratt and was attended by a number of the prominent members of the late company. Guests of the company were Major Lindsay McFadden, Lieutenant J.C. Dozier, Lieutenant Hiram Hutchison, and Lieutenant B. Jennings White, of Rock Hill, all of whom made short addresses. The affair was one of unusual pleasure as each guest was required to give some of his experiences overseas and, as the company saw some of the hardest fighting in France, a number of the men being more or less severly wounded, the stories were of unusual interest.
