service in France. He saw active serv
ice in the Philippines and naturally
would like to go with his old com
rades.
A lieutenant colonel for the Sixth
regiment has not been chosen. Sug
gestion was made that Colonel Fred
J. Mack, formerly commander of the
old Second regiment, who was one ot
the first to oner his services to Gen
eral Hall, might be available. Colonel
Mack, formerly lived at Albion, but
now lives at St. Petersburg, Fla. He
was considered one of the most ef
ficient officers in the guard, a man well
liked and thoroughly military in every
respect. Colonel Mack resigned as
colonel of the Fifth, which succeeded
the Second, when he moved to Florida
two or three years ago and Colonel
Paul, who was then lieutenant colonel.
succeeded him.
