CAMP CUBA LIBRE, September L.
(Specal.)-It has been stated in print that
since the order for the mastering out OF
the Second Virginia Regiment the disclp-
| line of this organization has been greatly
relaxed, but such is certainly not the
case Indeed, the officers deny the state
ment in the most unqualified terms. and
have called my attention TO the following
order:
Headquarters

This regiment has not been mustered
out of the service, and until the last act
OF mastering out is accomplished the DIS
cipline of the regiment must and will be

and carry out the orders emanating from
these headquarters will be severely pun
ished Drills will be resumed tomorrow
(weather permitting as usual, and officers
and men will attend all drills and paraoes.
BY order of Colonel Baker
w. G. CAMPBELL,
Captain and Adiutant.
