Regiment may well feel proud OF the record which

extremely large percentage OF the men on the rolls
appeared for duty last saturday, and the work
which they have done at Peekskill has been OF high

arriving in camp. His health has greatly improved

seeing the organization of which he is the head

Guard.
The week in camp beginning to-day will be an in

batteries do not get together often for field manOeu-

words, the expenses must he borne by the state. II
this done enough members promised TO go TO
