N. Bensou and the presentation 06 the portraits of the ex-colonels of the First Regiment. This year Major General Nelson A. Miles, the commander-in-chief of the t'nited States army, will be thrt special guest of the corps, and much Interest is manifested in his visit because lie is a volunteer officer and has a special liking for the National Guard organizations of the country. The history of the Veteran Corps Is a most interesting one, and probably no other organization contained in the ranks so many men who are now prominent in almost every profession in our city and who at some time did service in the First Regiment.

There are three requisites for active membership In the corps. The first requires service in the Seventh Regiment, Pennsylvania Militia, In lHt2 or Thirty-second Regiment, Pennsylvania Militia, in 1803. Secondly, a membership In the First Itcgiment with service in the One Hundred and Nineteenth Regiment, Pennsylvania Volunteers, this being the regiment which was recruited and officered by the First Regiment and known at that time as the Grey Reserves. Thirdly, an active service of five years or more in the present First Regiment, with an honorable discharge therefrom. The officers of the Corps are Commander Theo.

E. Wiedersheim, cashier of the Independence National Bank, and who joined the regiment in served as a corporal in the campaign of a captain of Company in the round house during the Pittsburg riots of 3K77, and colonel of the regiment from 1ST8 to 18M7; Senior Vice Commander It. Dale Benson, president Pennsylvania Fire Insurance Company and vice president Union League, whose record as a soldier from the time tie accepted a commission as second lieutenant in Colonel Coliis' regiment to the close of the war was a most brilliant one, receiving special mention for gallantry at Gettysburg. He Is also an cx-colonel of the First Regi ment and chairman of the war library com mittee of the Loyal Legion. The Junior Vice Commander Is Colonel Sylvester Bon-naffon, who enlisted as a private at 17 years of age in the Ninety-ninth Pennsylvania Volunteers and rose to the rank of lieutenant colonel.

Was recommended for promotion by General Meade, and served with great distinction on the staff of General de Trobriand, and was specially mentioned in order by General Birney. He was severely wounded at the battle of Boydton Plank Koad, October 27, 18G4. At the close of the war he was offered a commission in the regular army, but he preferred to return to private life. Iu 1877 In thirty-six hours he organized and had ready for the field the Twentieth Regiment, which did such valuable service in the coal regions, etc. Ho received the medal of honor from Congress for distinguished gallantry In action at Boydton Plank Road.
