LOCAL WAR ITEMS
[...]

Two camps have been formed on the Darby road, nearly opposite the depot of the Darby Passenger Railroad, below Gray's lane. Col. Gregory's camp, named in honor of Secretary Chase, occupies a very near and imposing plot of ground, the sentries being set and daily drilled. The other camp is near Mount Moriah Cemetery. It is yet a small affair.
