The sons of veterans were particularly
strong in numbers and were reinforced
by a splendid drum crops.
The Eleventh regiment marched with
precision and grace and made an eX-
cellent appearance, but the real en-
thusiasm was accorded the Thirteenth
regiment and the boys who served in
Cuba and Porto Rico. Their appear
ance was the signal for applause from
every quarter and every company
marched with the ease and grace and
uuickness that easily distinguishes
them from the others.

appeared for the first time with spring
helmets. The line of march was down
Wyoming avenue to Lackawanna, 10
