We regretted TO hear thai COL Bosrland's reei.
ment, formerly commanded by the late lamen ed
Col John G. Angel, will not turn out on the 9Th
OF January, as their uniforms are not ready. BY
theby, these uniforms, a sample OF which we saw
yes erdsy are remarkably tasteful, and will GER
tainy make splendid dis lay when the regiment
will turn ont on the 22d Of February. The whole
command is now completely armed with rifles OF
Shsrps improved pattern, and its absence in
the line will make quite gap. All those
who are acquainted with the history |
OF Louisiana since the beginning of 1874 will
remember that Dol. Boraud's regiment, under |
the name OF Louisiana Own. was OF the first,
under command OF Dol John G.. Angel, to enroll
under the banner OF Louisiana, to fight the |
usurper Kellogg, and that they have since doue
ysoman service in the cause OF liberation and |
Of the State. It's present field |
officers are Dol. l.. Borland, Lieut.. Dol. J. D !
Hill and Major l.. l.. Lincoln, all OF whom have
seen service during the war OF the Oonfederaoy,
and oan command their men under fire as well |
as In the evolutions OF parade.
