At the conclusion of the usual number of rounds, it was ascertained that Sergt. D. A. Tyree had made the three best shots, and was, therefore, entitled, not only to the Company's medal, but to the silver goblet, both of which were presented to him with the usual ceremonies.

Thus far both officers and men have been very prompt in their attendance of drills, and if they continue so, the corps must succeed.
