“The music of the evening was furnished by the regimental band, under the direction of Mr. Charles Rehm, and a band selected by Mr. Downing, formerly of the Ninth Regiment.” “The programme of music, both for dancing and promenade, was admirable, and unusually well executed, and embraced not only the hackneyed waltzes and galops of Strauss and Offenbach, but the less-known and happy compositions of Herman, Aronson, and Wiegand.”
