Captain Finlay was the first commander of the G. A. R. in this county and he is now bivouaoed in that farther camping ground. One of the exhibits at the recent re-union was a set of stirrups -- a present from General Tom Henderson at the close of the war to Chas. Mc- Comsey, the well known soldier and pioneer who recenly "went to the new frontier."

Fraternal Spirit and Orders

Scotts Bluff county has not been slow in the matter of' fraternals. It has seemed to the laymen that the fraternal spirit has run riot in the county to such an extent that all one needs to do is to propose to organize something and immediately the something will be organized. Some have been inclined to intimate that this is because we have so many "easy marks" but I am inclined to think that it is because the generous spirit of Scotts Bluff county people is looking for an outlet at all times.
