companies broke camp yesterday and re-
turned to their armories Every minute
of each day with the exception Of the rainy
time was devoted to practical work and
when the last drill was held Governors
day the results were very satisfactory
There has been no show, but instead there
has been a lot Of hard company, battalion
and reglmental work that has given the
men knowledge of military life that will
be of great benefit to them. There has
been little sickness in camp this year, a
few minor accidents and no insubordina-
ton.
All duty was dispensed with yesterday
and soon after morning mess the tents
were struck and the companies prepared
to leave. Companies and l. left Fort
Ethan Allen shortly after 10 o'clock and
were soon followed by Companies T., +, II,

men for the attention to orders and con-
graduated them upon the success of their
efforts He announced that this might

that he might remain with the regiment.
