GOVERNMENT SOLDIERS PASS THROUGH
hartford.

Two companies of Unitcd States light
artillery passed through Bel Air recently.
The first was on Wednesday of last week.
The men had camped at Wilson's Mill,
near Darlington, on Tuesday night and
broke camp about seven O'Clock, reach
ing Bel Air about 1870. The soldiers
were mostly young men-several looking
scarcely more than boys. However, i'll
the ranks were few grizzled veterans
who doubtless had seen service" The
horses were not quite up to Uncle Sam
usual standard. In fact some of them
looked like the outfit was a gypsy train
rather than a branch of the standing
army of the greatest nation on earth.
Those who use horses for heavy haul
ing could get pointers from the steel col.
lars that were adopted exclusively by the
Government sometime ago. It's claimed
BILE, and less liable to gall the shoulders
when drawing a heavy load.
The company included about - men
and over 100 horses They carried tour
light field rifles and were Ell route for
Fort Myer, having been engaged in rifle
practice at Mt. Gretna, Pa. Captain
Foote was the commanding officer A
halt was made in Bel Air while proven
der for both man and beast was obtained.
During the wait, large number of peo-
pie were attracted by the soldier boys.
The most striking sight was when the
order of march was given. The bugle's
first call brought the men to attention,
and the springs of the steel collars. which
had been loosened during the resting
period, could be heard to click all along
the line. The next blast brought every
man to his post, either in the saddle or
on the gun wagons, and a final command
started the company towards its winter
home.
The second company came through on
Monday, but did not stop.
