aid when Col. Ellsworth brought his
famous Zouaves to New York, and we
saw them every day. They were the
best drilled body Of soldiers In the
world at that time. A funny paper

bed on a floor covered broken glass, In
dicating that they we're proof against
anything. The following item from
the Sioux city Tribune Is responsible
for this comment:
"Do you old boys recall the famous
Ellsworth ZOuaves touring I he coun-
try In 1860 with chips on shoulders
daring any other company TO compete
In drill with them? And they were OF
the first to volunteer a year later when
Beauregard trained guns on Sum-
ter. And Ellsworth, then colonel, was
shot to death by a Vlrgintan while
taking down a rebel flag. Well,
eight Rrizzled survivors of that famous
company sat At table together In Chi
cago and had their last reunion this
week. The youngest IS 60 and a boy
of 81 presided"
