Notes and Comments
Notes and Comments

The Second Regiment is anxious tc
be a part of the invading army OF the
Philippines. and Governor Russell has
told Col. Burgwyn that he will make
an effort to get them assigned to a
Manila expedition. Col. Burgwyn, Ma
jors Dixon, Cotton. Wilder and the other
regimental officers feel that they have a
regiment that will make name for it
self at the front if the opportunity is
offered to go to the front, and some OF
these officers seem to think that with
the inevitable fail of Santiago, there
will be but few, if any, opportunities
left in Cuba to demonstrate the valor,
courage and fighting qualities of the
Second regiment, and therefore they are
hoping that they may help to invade
the Isle of the Pacific. The Governor
will do what he can TO bring this about
but whether the regiment will be as
signed to Manila invading force cannot
vet be stated.
The Second regiment is in fine condi
ton. 1t lacks only about thirty mer
of being fully recruited. and it is rapidly
being completely equipped. At the dress
parade yesterday afternoon it made Il
magnificent showing. The band ha:
learned to play Dixie and as il
marched in front of the regimental col
umn yesterday, playing this stirring hi
shouts went up from hundreds of thu
camp visitors.

Dixon yesterday, and he meant it.
