' THE SHOW"
First lets start at the beginning so;

is within a huge stone building; thej
watts of which arc about IP to IS inch-.

plank just as many a building' of yore
in the States. Hut within our iittlc
billet here are only fifteen * of the:
dough boys which represent five ?ify
. i
foi'cnt states of our great nation, and
fair representatives they arc too, - T
think. From South Carolina there*
are onlv three, and ail of which hap- '
hen 10 '6e Lexingtonians, (II. O L.:nd-1

reviilec; which is nothing- more nor
less than.that of the timekeeper's
check on his men in the mornings asj
they enter the shops for the days'
work, just so we had all -been checked
upon and all found to be present, I
when the highest non-commissioned J
i
officer of the company, (First Searg??nt)
announced that there would be
a regimental horse show about twelve
or fifteen killoes distant on that date,
and all that wished to go may do so.
Just at this time the rain was fail
ing freely wih the clouds thickening
and all indications of still a more!
heavy rain to follow.
; Very soon all but a comparatively
few had given up all hopes of going to
the show on account f. the inclement
'weather;'when we larnd that the show
had been called off until the next day.
