Muskets and muster at North the Stars day
A Civil War era piece notes a flag raising and assembly in North the Stars with speeches by patriotic men. It mentions a muster-roll sent to headquarters, Plato company in Allingite ranks, guns fired in honor of the Union, and debate over muskets altered from flintlock to percussion and their readiness for use. It laments unfair treatment of state arms and suggests a master armorer could repair them. The letter from Ordinance in Dubuque Times accompanies subscription notes and humorous musings on Confederate rumors.
