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. s d ALL WEEK li ,,..,Ii uugi-' ~ u qt, THE WUERTH ALL WEEK . 1 - J ./ ° . r 11 _ r t tr'a j III iIe /44
