Reed Pays Tribuse 10 Governor.
That the officers and men OF the

Governor Townsend has taken in
them is evident from the following
statemenf made by Colonel Reed

particularly good singing
The pathetic scenes grew In numbers
during the afternoon, and 10 was not
unusual 10 see mothers. sisters and
sweethearts sobbing as they kissed
their loved ones goodbye.
AS the soldiers hiked into New Castle
during the afternoon many girls ran
/ into the ranks and caught brother or
sweetheart by the arm and marched
along with him until they reached the
train. Mothers fondly clasped sons In
: their arms and chung TO them while
they gave vent 60 their tears. Even
fathers ard brothers kissed the soldiers
lbood-bye and were not ashamed OF the
tears that dlmmed their eyes. Girls
