“It must have been a pretty sight to witness Thomas and his splendid army walking into Hood and his followers before Nashville. But a much prettier sight can be witnessed every day at Barnum’s Museum. . . .A very appropriate panorama for the holidays has just been added to the attractions at this establishment. . . .There will be an immense rush to this place during the festive season.”
