corted it through the town to the court
house, where hearty welcome was given
the visitors. The troop then marched
out to the Fair Grounds, where camp was
made.
At Leesburg the troop was received with
hospitality no less lavish than that
of Winchester. During the sojourn of
two days in Leesburg the command was
| regularly drilled, and series of games,
similar to those given at Winchester, was
witnessed by large audience From
Leesburg to Falls Church, the ueXt camping
place of the command, was the longest
march of the trip, the distance being close
onto thirty miles, which, however, the now
seasoned troopers, covered without appa-
rent fatigue.
ON THE ROAD TO WASHINGTON.
AT this place, the last camp OF their
eventful and successful march, the troopers
again slept in the open air, without tents or
other covering than an army blanket. It
was noon before the troop was in the
saddle and on the road TO Washington.
When it reached Fort Myer, the station of
four troops of u. s. Cavalry, Colonel Guy
V. Henry, the commanding officer, paid it
very graceful compliment by ordering out
Troop A, First U. S. Cavalry, to meet the
command and escort it through the military
reservation, an honor, rarely, if ever
before, paid to militia organization by the
regular army.
Washington and home was reached in
the afternoon, and, remarkably enough,
after so long march by comparatively
young cavalry troop, every man came back
in his saddle. No one was injured and no
one was i'll. The troopers We're decidedly

etc, in all of which the troop excelled in
wonderful feats of horsemanship
On Sunday afternoon camp was broken,
and the gallant troopers started on the
return journey via Round Hill and Lees
burg, leaving Winchester and its hospit-
able citizens with much regret.
The special correspondents of the New
York Herald and World and the Washing
ton Evening Star published full accounts
of the true and hearty old Virginia welcome
extended to the command Gen. Albert
Ordway, commanding the District of CO.
lumbia National Guard, and number of his
staff showed their interest in the under
taking OF the troop by visiting it at Win
chester for couple of days.
The command, at distance of twelve
miles from Winchester bivouaced in a
stubble field near the residence of the well
known pianist, Leo Wheat, in whose honor
the camp was named Here the boys
night air was chilly, and the horses that
had been turned louse roamed rather freely
among the sleeping men An early start
next morning brought the troop at 10
O'Clock to the Shenandoah river at Cas-
tlemau's Ferry.
The river was high, but experience was
to be gained, and Capt Barbour, disdain-
ing the rather clumsy ferry boat which is
navigated bv means Of a long rope and
tackle led the way, aud the troopers plunged
Into the water at the ford and pushed
steadily across. In some instances the
water reached the top of the saddles, aud
the efforts to keep the water out Of boots

SKIRMsHING ON THE MOUNTAIN.
The passage of the river was followed by
the passage Of the Blue Ridge mountains
The column passed through Suckers
Gap, marked during the war by the passage
of more than one army.
Going up the mountain the troop went
through a very pretty skirmish drill, and
the sharp crack of the carbiDes and clear
notes from the bugles caused a number of
peaceful citizens to take to the woods in
hot haste. The Inhabitants along the
mountain ridge were found TO be ofthe prim-
tive order, many of them subsisting prin-
cipally on the revenue incident to the manu-
facture OF what is locally known as ''pine
top" being whisky of certain order TO
which the revenue officer has not received
an Introduction.
About noon the command arrived at their
company ground at Round Hill, q small
town which has become quite a summer
resort. Here q pleasant reception was given
the Troopers, who, next day, were again
on the march for Leesburg.
Just before the column reached Hamilton,
distance OF six miles from Round Hill the
first platoon was sent forward dismounted,
and deployed as skrmishers in the woods on
the top of q hill at the entrance to the vii
lage. The second platoon then advanced,
were fired upon, and deploying, advanced
on the line and successfully drove the enemy
back
The noise Of the sham battle in progress
drew crowds of people to the sport, and the
engagement was witnessed with interest.

twenty minutes, after the wagons arrived
on the ground selected for camp, to unload
them, put up their tents, arrange camp, and
be ready for stable call. This was quick
work for young soldiers.
On the same day the country Travelled
over was interesting to the amateur sol
der, as during the war it fairly Bwarmed
with soldiers in blue and gray, and on
many spots sabers clashed and earbines
cracked
AT Danestown, a pretty little village
passed on the second days march, the
Ninth New York Cavalry camped for some
time during the early days of the war
On the third day, in the vicinity Of Knox
Vile and the pass through the mountains
made by the Potomac below Harper's
Ferry, Lieut.. Perry went ahead OF the
command With a platoon to represent the
enemy, so that the troop might receive
some praCt ical instruct tion in advance
guard and outpost duty and the method of
passing defile in an enemy's country
The remainder OF the command threw
out an advance guard, according to regu-
lations, and entered the pass with the
greatest caution.
Toward l o'clock a sudden fusillade
IN the front was an intimation that the
enemy had been encountered, and the troop
advanced some distance at q gallop, and
dismounted part of the command to fight
on foot.
These men deployed as skirmisheB on
each side OF the road, over rocks, through
brush aud brambles, taking advantage
of the shelter of trees, etc., and engaged
the enemy's outposts on a steep hillside.
A few minutes of rapid firing carried the
hill. The remainder of the command
charged as foTagers, sabred the enemys
outposts into little bits, figuratively speak
