The 4th at Harrisonburg.
The great and glorious Fourth of July
was celebrated at Harrisonburg on a big
scale. The exercises were under the au:
spices of the volunteer fire department,
and everything was most admirably
msnaged. Excursion trains from Wood
stock and Staunton “arrived packed to
the platforms while the regular trains
brought many more. The decorations
were extensiye and beautiful, almost every
house being resplendent with flags, ban
ners and mottos, and beautifully trimmed
archos crossed the streets at different
points, while enormous national flags
floated trom ropes stretched across tLe
streets at frequent intervals. The stree:
parade was a grand affair. It comprised
the Harrisonburg Guards, the Hook and
Ladder company with their large truck,
and the three hose companies with their
reels beautifully trimmed, a long line of
wheelmen, and a number of ad floats.
Five bands were in the line, one being
the handsomely uniformed Harrisville
band from Shenandoah. The fire laddies
were in bright and showy uniforms and
made a very fine appearance.
At Assembly Park where the great
crowd congregated, Gen. Thomas L. Ros
ser delivered an oration. This was fol
lowed by an exciting tournament in
which a number of knights contended for
the prize. Target shooting by the mili
tary, dancing and many other minor at
tractions filled up a program that seemed
to please every one. Although the ad
mission fee to the Park was only fifteen
cents the gate receipts amounted to $550,
and the crowd was estimated a’ fully five
thousand.

Very little disorder was noticable, while
the accommodations were very good. The
firemen and the citizens of Harrisonburg
generally did themselves proud.
