When the Sevepty-ninth New York
highlanders paraded ON June 1, 1861, to
depart for Washington, all the officers
and many of the men wore the kits,
while the rest Of the men were dressed
In handsome state jackets with red
facings, blue fatigue caps and Cameron
tartan pants. These, with the killed
officers and men made their appearance
quite picturesque, as may be readily
imagined. But by the time the regi-
ment marched TO the battlefield ''our
knapsacks containing our uniform
jackets and tartan pants were packed
up and left at camp, says the regi-
mental historian. III any of our men
wore other than the regulation dark
blue blouses and light blue pants dur
ing the campaign, 1t was the exception
and they were few" The costume Of
Duryee's corps was that of the Second
regiment Of the French zouaves, COM
posed of a blue jacket trimmed with
red and blue shirt trimmed with the
same. full scarlet trousers with leather
leggings and scarlet cap with blue tas-
sci, partly arranged In turban form
The famous Seventh New York march
ed to Washington dressed In gray. The
celebrated Sixth Massachusetts was
also dressed In gray when 1t marched
through Baltimore, while there were
some few corps dressed in green.
