On account of confined limits of the parade ground of the Loyal Associated Corps of Volunteer Infantry, it was found necessary to lock the door, during the time of drill, to prevent the crowd interfering with the evolutions of the Corps, - this circumstance has given rise to the following song. Blackett's field: a song. Tune, "John Anderson my Joe.".
