When the band left here with the regiment this morning it ■was playing a departing inarch and many of those assembled about the place to see the boys away heard , the soft strains of music at it died /away in the distance/ / ’But all of the oid. Ninth Infantry members are not gone, for in the Thirty-seventh Infantry which arrived here last Friday are about 350 men who belonged to the old Ninth proper, and these will remain -here until called away—and that may be at any moment now with this country at war with Germany. The new Thirty-seventh has a good band, and 1n this, loo, are a number of the men who formerly belonged to the Ninth Infantry Band. «o in reality Laredo is only losing about one-third of the old-time Ninth Infantry regiment and band.
