from I2a. III. to I ?. III. Was
gazing on this moving mass OF
human beings. One very patri0
tic company from the State Of
Maine had among their com
mand the very identical OLD
mule shat Billy Sherman rode
on that memOra bic march from
Atlanta to the sea, mot - few
Of us remember this march, he
IL 81 years Old and is rcnarka
lily we'll preserved, OF course
he has graZed on the fat Of the
land ever since he brought his
rider so successfully through
that frey" line OF march with
ont = single Or even the smell
Of fire about his clothes. We
suppose this mule gets part Of
the pension money. Another
company had horse that was
captured from the "Rebs' in
the valley OF Virginia., Our
sister state Florida carried an
ensign Of Aligators entitled
Sherman Bummers;" now just
what they meant to infer was
not exactly understood by a
Boston reporter, he rather
thought it is meant for a burleS
que which Of course did not
set very we'll. Then came Texas
