of it, it is rather ridiculous that a mis-

ton, commanded by Vermont officers
and getting ten dollars month extra
pay from the state The Vermont reg

full war strength, $500, long before this,
to make good the depletion caused by
its earlier, if ill-advised division by the

preciate the chance to serve in Yer
mont organization under Vermont Off

their revolutionary ancestors still lives,
that the present generation does not
