What happens then to this hen-

Sixty eight years ago, in 1800,1
M. F. Miles was a student at the
University of Michigan and was
taken away from his educational
career by the Civil war, during
which he served in the Forty-
ninth Ohio Regiment in which hev
later reached the rank of colonel.-
Until a week ago, Colonel Miles
had not seen the Michigan campus
for forty-seven years which, ac-
cording to the colonel, is a long
time to be away from a place that
you love dearly.
The ninety-year old Civil war,
veteran who lives in Wayne, Ohio,
is still in perfect health, despite
his age and a slight deafness andI
traveled from his home to Toledo,
Ohio, alone. In Toledo he rwas
met by Prof. H. L. 4Caverly, of
the Economics department, who
accompanied him on his visit to
Ann Arbor. ColonelnMiles con-
stantly reminisced on the old
campus of Civil war days and re-
called the days when the north
and south wings of University
hall were the only buildings of
those which are still on the campus
today.
When interrupted in his studies
by the war, Colonel Miles intend-
ed 'to return and take up the
study of law but his plans never
materialized - and although he
visited the University several times
after 1861,. he has not been here in
the last forty-seven years.
