  The Excursionists arrived in time and were received by CAPTAIN ARMSTRONG of the Crescent Hotel, who escorted them to his house, where the evening was pleasantly spent, the band of music, which accompanied the command improvising a concert, upon which followed a much enjoyed Ball.

 

  At an early hour Sunday morning the command started to the rear of the town where the target practice took place.

 

  We subjoin the results:

 

  Capt. Snyder of Company K succeeded in placing three balls nearest the company's bull's eye, their aggregate distance being 29 1/8 inches.

 

  Mr. William A. Bozens made the next best shot; his three distances measuring 33 3/4 inches, and is entitled to the distinction of being the best shot in the Company.

 

  The prize offered to members of the Legion was won by Lieutenant Behan of Company R;, his three shots measuring 17 1/2 inches.

 

  Mr. William Lynd of Company A succeeded in placing three bullets in the board with an aggregate distance of 18 1/ 8 inches from the bull's eye.

 

  The shooting was altogether very fine and proved the Crescent Rifles to be excellent shots.  The prizes were presented by Lieut. Stewart.  Capt. S. P. Snyder received the first prize, a gold badge, and Lieut. Behan the other prize consisting of a silver medal.

 

  The Crescent Rifles returned to the city on the 5:30 P.M. train greatly satisfied with their trip and its pleasant incidents.  (VF - MJS VI00481)
