Reception of Civil War Troops
Reception of Troops
In June, 1865, anticipating the early return of troops from the field, a meeting of citizens was held in Detroit, when measures were taken to arrange for a proper reception at that place of the returning regiments, and to provide such refreshments as they might stand in need of. With this in view, the following committees were selected and appointed:
Committee of Reception. —Ladies—Mesdames Brent, T. K. Adams, Silas Holmes, Walter Ingersoll, John Palmer, J. S. Farrand, L. B. Willard, Jabez Holmes, L. S. Trowbridge, Slocum, and A. 0. McGraw. Gentlemen—Rev. George Taylor, Messrs. J. W. Farrell, Ed. Wetmore, W. S. Penfield, F. Wet-more, T. K. Adams, George W. Hudson, Jabez Holmes, E. C. Walker, Geo. Sheley, and H. M. Wright.
