A. it is necessary to elect a delegate from each camp to meet at Springfield on the second Tues­ day of January. This is going to be a large expense to the local camps as each has to pay their own expenses and as there will be no other business to come before the meeting but to elect one dele­ gate at large for the State and in each County to elect one delegate to every five hundred members or fraction there off, as a delegate to the head camp. Would it not be a good thing to send the delegates to Woodstock Jan. 3d and select thedelegates to represent the county and let those go to the meeting at Spring­ field, and save the camps of the county about one hundred and fifty ex prase.
