Scobell, O.C. 5 Adjt. Meath, Chaplain Clarke, Paymaster McLean, Quartermaster James and Medical Officer Clark, marching in their places. The soldiers carried the regular equipment for active service, including rifles, etc. Behind Behind the soldiers were twelve teams with the tents and other baggage, and two field kitchens--one a gift from Cobourg and Port Hope. The soldiers marched to the drill shed grounds where, in an incredibly short time a tempting dinner put in an appearance from within the Battalion's own resources, but much of it disappeared again--within the Battalion's own resources. resources. The many visitors to the camp were impressed by the quality and quantity quantity alike of the food, and the very evident desire that the soldiers should be comfortable. comfortable.
