Gideon's Band
Company D, 124th Penna. Volunteers
'Gideon’s Band. – The Sheriff of Delaware County, Norris L. Yarnall, is now at the head of over one hundred young men who have volunteered at the call of their country to go forth to endure the privations of camp-life, the toils of the march, and the perils of the battle field, to protect us in our property and our homes. In the roll which we annex, our readers will recognize the names of the sons of our best citizens, who have left the comforts of easy homes, and the career of prosperous business for the duty to which their country calls them, and to which their manly patriotism so generously and freely responds. We congratulate them and their friends on having a gentleman so capable as Sheriff Yarnall for their Captain, one whose military knowledge peculiarly fits him for the position he has assumed. We predict for him entire success in his patriotic efforts to serve his country.
