not soon be forgotten by them. It was an unfar-

hasty as to deprive most Of Us Of the opportunity
of giving the final hand-shske to our friends. Il
was our own fault, however. We should hsye
been at the depot half an hour earlier.
Our ride to Brattleboro was pleasant one. We

get into line parallel with the barracks (tcn in

time appeared to be the only way in which any
kird Of parallelisn could be established between
the two. The companies are composed for the
most part, however. OF men who will learn quick,
and few days OF steady drill viii tell another
story. We broke ranks just at dark, received our
blankets, wooden and india-rubber, selected our
hunks and then marched Of to supper, which was
abundant and good enough for anybody, sauccd as
it was with a hearty appetite.

out clapbOards or battens, within which wooden
hunks are ranged for the men, in double tiers. 1
