The day was quiet one throughout during the
parade, which may be accounted for from the fact
that the people early IN the day became aware Of
what strength the escort would be able to show,

superintendent Kelso drew out . line OF parade
which could not have been better chosen TO prevent
disorder and disturbance OF any kind. In concln-

than the Orangemen, that is II they care anything
for appearances or military regulations.
