Gen. Ordway states that he notes with
satisfaction the largely increased percent
age of attendance over 1893.
The seven organizations parading every
man are commended as models in this re-
spect for the remainder of the brigade.
The next ten companies, with over 81 per
cent present, are also entitled to common
dation, says the general, and 1t is expected
that the organizations parading under 80
per cent will strive at the coming inspec-
ton and muster, to improve their records
