Robert w. P. Muse, President of the

all the Volunteer Firemen Of this State
to be present on that occasion.
Here is the closing part of his address.
lie says, the citizens and Fire Depart
ment Of Dayton are making preparations
for the event in a spirit Of unbounded
generosity and patriotism; and l take
pleasure in assuringthe Firemen through
out the State, that nothing will be lack
ing on their part to make it a most grand
and interesting affair, and that they will
receive the most cheering, enthusiastic,
and warm hearted welcome. Let US all
be there, and show item that W fully
appreciate their generous hospitality.
| am authorized TO state that the Ex-
ecutiye Committee have secured the al
tendance Of able and eloquent orators.
This is to be a parade of the Volun-
teer Fire Companies. They are men
who nobly and promptly give their ser
vices to project the property of the citi
zens Of our State without reconpense,
and | trust that the Railroad Companies
of the State, all of whom are largely in
debtcd &c them for the protection Of their
property, will moi hesitate TO show their
liberalily, AMI tender 10 the delegates TO
the Parade free Hckets.
In conclusion. permit me to suggest
that The Firemen do not appear in uni
Corm-until on parade, and that they only
take such carriages and equipages as is
consistent with The safety OF The several
cities or towns from which they MAJ
come. ROBERT w. L. Muse.

ing dangerously i'll, application was
