ed to be hr Id at ilie armory tomorrow
nigh, by Lieutenant Hszeiborft and
, at that time the first arrangements
will be made for the reception of the

It ia the intention ol the people of
Macon to give the boys a* hearty a
welcome as ever has been extended to
any of the returning soldiers and after
the appointment of the committees
the whole town will take,hold of the
movement.
There will be no difficulty in getting

The Macon Volunteers will be joined
In this movement by the other oompa*
niea in the city.
1 Just what form the reception will
’ take has not yet been decided. Much
1 will depend upon the time of the ar~
' rival of the regiment. Influence will
1 be brought to bear, however, to bring
them bare during the day time and it
is more than probable that the effort
to do It will be successful.
Lieutenant Hazlehurst hopes that
every member of the Macon Volun
teers will be present at the meeting
tomorrow night. It is not meant that
only the younger members of the
company be there but that the old
