From tho Philadelphia Press
All along the route the natives lined the
road, and ga2ed with astOnishment at the
spectacle of these sCiOus of Philadelphia
aristOcracy riding under the burning sun,
aud weighted with OverCOats in front and
blankets behind aud cATbinos at the sides,
In the nose bags for the horses were carried
the oats. Perhaps the seVerest trial OF the
troopers march was encountered between
Coatesvlllo and Lancaster, when an Old
cavalryman, att:aCtel by familiar bugIe
call rushed out of his house aud presented
Captain Grubb with a slip cut out of
newspaper dated 1913. GA ono side was
a poem written for tho First CITY Troop
Of Philadelphia cavalry, 10y Saul Allen, To
the air Of Tho Glasses sparkle" On
tho other side was an obituary of Robert
Fulton, tho Hudson river steamboat pio
ueer. The last worse of this poem, which
has not seen tho light for many years,
runs
Then do not spurn your guards, yo fair,
Nor slightly mold their name,
4 prouicr office mono can bear,
since angels do the same.
That eye that speaks, those blushtng checks,
Shall al our cases DeguiIo

Captain Grubb brought his command Of
