The tents being * pitched the boys then got ready for some "hard tacks’’ and coifee, which just sitetl a hungry crowd. We are certainly enjoying ourselves. So far we have not had to drill any, on account of the rain, but the prospects are that we will drill this afternoon, (Sunday) or at leas? will have dress parade.
