IL. Before seyering his connection with
the officers and men who have during the
past several weeks been under his COM
mand and who are now ordered to re-
turn to their homes, the commanding
officer begs leave to testify that he has
none but words of praise for them while
IN camp on the State Capitol grounds, in
the Armory and while serving on especial
duty. They have been under admiral
control and for the service for which
National Guard troops are usually en-
ployed-the dispersion of riotous mobs,
etc.--he believes they will ever be found
most effective.
IL. 1t is not often that National Guards
men are placed in the position that the
State troops located in Sacramento found
themselves in when called upon for
active service in the crisis now so hap
PLY passed. All of them were called
upon to face as enemies their friends,
relatives and neighbors, and many of
them who were members of the Ameri-
can Railway Union found themselves
pledged to two sacred yet opposing obli-
cations; one to their trade organization
and the other to their State. To their
credit, it can be said. they promptly
realized that the obligation to their State
was paramount and they. stood ready 10
sacrifice, if need be, their lives IN order
to show their loyalty to the Common
wealth.
I3. The Commander takes pleasure in
compImenting all the troops in his com
mand, which, in addition to the Sacra-
mento companies, includes Companies A
and b OF the Sixth Infantry, Third Bri-
gade. located in Stockton, for the
splendid service rendered by them in
the hazardous undertaking of protecting
trains and threatened points along the
railway lines.
IA. Let me express the hope that the
military experience gained by this COM
mand during the recent service will
prove OF great value; that the efficiency
now acquired will continue to be main
tanned; that the Commander may never
IL, &l,o
now formed of the loyalty and fidelity of
his troops, and that they may ever con-
duct themselves as National Guardsmen
so as to merit and retain the respect and
confidence of the people. By command of
BRIGADIER- GENERAL L. w. SHEEHAN.
G. II. HUBBARD, Lieutenant-Colonel
and A. A. q.
Colonel Guthrie will accompany the
Auburn and Grass Valley companies TO
Truckee, where they will relieve the two
companies from San Francisco now do
ing duty there.
