Camp No. 8, U. C. V., located at Chicago, Ill., has suffered many losses in the past year. Never a large band, it is yet intensely loyal to its Southern ideals and traditions, and by the unswerving patriotism and high sense of honor of its members it has won the respect and admiration of the Northern friends anong whom they are located. Within six months the following comrades have been called to the "great beyond": James D. Wallace, Morgan's Cavalry, died December 11, 1919; Ramsey H. Stewart, 12th Mississippi Infantry, December 16, 1919; Charles F. Gunther, Marines, Hinman's Brigade, February 10, 1920; John C. Slaughter, Morgan's Cavalry, March 30, 1920; Timothy J. Murphy, 30th Virginia Infantry, May 9, 1920.
