The Headquarters Booth of the Bureau during tlie Encampment is on Boston Common, near the West Street entrance, so called. The Bureau has also a large corps of guides, detailed from the Soiis of Veterans, who will patrol the streets and give all information in their power. These guides will be dis- tinguished by ril)bon l^adges bearing the inscription "Bureau of Informatiox." The purpose of issuing this little book is to give in a concise form such general information as will be most lilvely to be sought ])y visiting comrades. It would be impO£i;?ible to give every thing that everybody might want to know. Absolute completeness is not claimed, and should not be expected; but the compilation lias been made as comprehensive and accurate as time and facili- ties would permit. It is not intended to be a "guide- book." That field is fully covered by the enterprising business firms of Boston, who have issued innumerable pamphlets which can be had for the asking. COMMITTEES.
