TEAL l. were busy last night making
their arrangements for going into camp at
Lynchburg next Monday. The men were
at their armory till a late hour getting their
uniforms, arms and accoutrements in order,

creditable appearance as any company in
the regiment. This company has always
reflected credit on Alexandria wherever it
has gone, and it is hoped that the merchants
of the city who have the members in their
employ will not only give them leave OF

urge them to go, that this city may be well
represented and the company may be thus
enabled to go with full ranks of good men
