Review: New York Herald, 01 August 1865, 8.

     “The two regiments . . . assembled yesterday morning at Centre Market Armory, at about nine o’clock to be escorted through the streets to the point where the formal reception was to take place. . . .  The police, to the number of about nine hundred, including the off platoons of the Brooklyn force, were drawn up in Mulberry street, at the front of the Police Headquarters, when the veterans arrived, headed by a full band discoursing martial music as they marched… [The] order of procession: Dodworth’s Band . . . Robertson’s band of forty six pieces . . . Band. . . .

     After the disposition of the forces there was music by the band.”
