for work, and there is nothing that
can now be done to change matters in
bmqte go. OrjrMuft uniforms are
unfit to be seen a't?d we have no other
now
“ Our men are greatly dUappoinggM
but 1 am douuly kw
on the trip and ■■

in our preparations w *en the box of

prospects. 'Tam sorry all over but

keenly the missing of our chance.
“Sincerely yours,
