Cavalry Veterans Meet - Memories of the Armies of the James and Potomac were revived at the annual gathering last week of the survivors of the 11th Pennsylvania Volunteer Cavalry. The meeting was held at the home of Andrew Barr, at 768 North Twenty-third street, and a large number were present. Henry Billbrough, the regimental bugler, sounded all of the calls, from reveille to taps, on the old regimental bugle. Addresses were delivered by Captain Mc Birney, Regimental Surgeon Dr. H. Archibald and Comrade F. Heyburn, of the Sixty-Ninth New York Regiment, Cochrane's Brigade, after which the old soldiers enjoyed an excellent dinner. All voted the reunion a great success. After a duet by Comrade Andrew Barr and his wife, and singing "Auld Lang Syne" the veterans left for their homes. Those present were J.B. Simmons, S. Kent, Thomas Almond, Henry Billbrough, P.F. Campbell, N. Neff Huckelville, W.H. Quinn, C.F. Austin, A.F. Seeman, H. Myers, Alonzo R. Wright, J. Walton, W.N. George, Josiah P. Worst.
