I posing tho 4th Regiment, together with
abput fifteen military conipaiiies from
Various parts of Michigan will participate. Tlie whole is to be under command of General TSugeno Robinson.
Ladies will be admitted free to the
park where the drill is to take place, if
accompanied by gentlemen, who will
be expected te pay 2o cents each. Four
companies of British troops, from
Windsor, Ontario, will also be present,
and participate in the parade.
Free, Free.
To all persons who have attained the
age of fifty years, who have no natural
likeness of themselves, if they cut this
out aud present it at my studio, I will
