Hundreds of Civil War veterans gathered for the 39th annual reunion of the 52d Ohio and 98th O.V. regiments at Smithfield, with business sessions and a campfire program. They recounted the retreat from Louisville to Frankfort, praising Col. Dan McCook and the regiment’s endurance during a grueling 170 mile, 28 hour night march and siege actions. The gathering influenced plans to meet again in Uhrichsville on the third Thursday in October 1916.
