Veterans in Reunion
Survivors of One Hundred and Fourteenth

Utica Saturday Globe, September 1916
George W. Payne
1845 - 1928
Norwich [Chenango Co., NY]: Of the 120 survivors of the One Hundred and Fourteenth Regiment who left Norwich in the summer of '61 a thousand strong, about 80 members were present at the reunion here recently. The success of the 44th annual gathering was due very largely to the efforts of Comrade George W. Payne, who was unanimously chosen treasurer for another year.
Capt. Charles W. Underhill, of Hamilton, was re-elected President; Orson M. Snow, of Norwich, Color Bearer; William O. Nash, of Guilford, Secretary. The company vice presidents are: A.D.W. Tyler, B.C.A Sumner, C.J.W. Sherwood, D.W.H. Williamson, E. Zenas Tarbell, F. Charles L. Williams, G. Burton Brown, H. Wheaton J. Race, Harvey Stearns and K. George J. Billings.
