It anything was needed to solidify the friendship between the North and the South that the Civil War temporj rlly severed, the recent reunion of survivors of the two armies on the site of the historic battle of Gettysburg- furnished the substance, say re turning: veterans. The first members of the Oregon party to return were J. B. Rand am T, B. Rand, brothers, who fought with the Second Wisconsin Regriment, which with the Sixth Wisconsin, Seventh Wisconsin, Twenty-fourth Michigan and Nineteenth Indiana, formed the famous Iron Brigade, one of the most remarkable fighting- organisations pro duced by the war. "We got into a good many argu ments back there about certain de tails of the war," said T. B. Rand yesterday, "but when the big reunions came there was no distinction be tween Yanks and Johnnies. We were all like brothers. We bunked to gether, messed together, marched to gether and gathered around the camp fires together. We talked over the war and all were agreed that it ended Just right." - - Iron Brigade Drairs Attention. Survivors of the Iron -Brigade were the objects of special attention at the reunion. Colonel O'Conner, who was attached to Battery B, included with the brigade during the war, was host to all his comrades who fought with him. He Is a wealthy Chicago drug gist now. He had erected at Gettys burg a big tent, accommodating, 1200 men, and hired a band. Every sur vivor of the brigade was invited to meet there every day. Members of the North Carolina regiments against which the Iron Brigade fought a num ber of severe engagements, also were the guests of Colonel O'Conner. "Thousands of people gathered around our tent every day," said Mr. Rand. "One day when the old bugler of Battery B was telling the story of our fight at Gainesville, a Johnnie in the rear of the tent Jumped up and shouted: "That ain't so.1 "Three Johnnies told him to get out and threatened to put him out. This fellow was an old hot head." Mr. Rand says he was able to de termine the exact location of his reg iment on the Gettysburg field and locate the' ground over which he had fought. Jennie Wade's Story Recalled. An object of much Interest to all the veterans at Gettysburg was the house In which Jennie Wade, "the heroine of Gettysburg," was shot. -. The ., story of Jennie Wade is not , a part of ordinary history, yet . it 'is linked inseparably with the three days' fighting around Gettysburg. .. Mrs. Georgia Wade McClellan, a sister of Jennie Wade, was at the old home and talked to all the visitors. Mrs. McClellan's husband was In the Union Army. She and Jennie lived In the little cottage at Gettysburg. On June 26, 1S63, Mrs. McClellan's oldest son was born in that house. That was the day that the Confederates, un der General Early, first entered Gettysburg. Most of the women and children in the village fled. But Jennie Wade and her mother bad to stay with her sick sister and her baby. During the early skirmishing some of the wounded sol diers were brought into their yard, and Jennie, in danger of being struck by stray bullets, gave them water. On the morning of the second day of the real battle a number of soldiers came to the door of the Wade home and asked for something to eat. The Wades had nothing to give them, but there was flour in the house. Jennie started to bake bread for the soldiers. As she was kneading the dough a bullet crashed through the front door of the house and pierced Jennie Wade's heart. Jennie Wade was 20 years old the preceding May. She was engaged to be married to Johnston Skelly, a ser geant in the Eighty-seventh Pennsyl vania Regiment. He was wounded and captured at Winchester, Va., dying nine days after his sweetheart was killed.
