The Weekly Constitution, Atlanta, Ga. March 30, 1903
Albany, Ga., March 29 -- Military day of the Georgia Chautauqua.  
Tuesday, April 28, will witness the gathering of about twenty-five military 
companies in this city.  The number may reach thirty.  Last year there were 
twenty-six companies in line, and the display was one of the most imposing ever 
witnessed in the state.

Some idea of the size of the military parade may be obtained from the fact that 
no less than ninety horses will be required for the officers' mounts.  Of this 
number fifty will be for the governor's staff, which will be in line fifty 
strong.  It will be the first appearance of Governor Terrell's aides in their 
gorgeous new uniforms, and their coming is anticipated with a good deal of 
interest.
