call-to-arms

— Elisha Burnet, the veteran of the already mentioned veterans, took part in the battles of Chippewa and Lundy’s Lane, but escaped uninjured. He belongs to the ‘Brimfield dubs,’ and during the exercises was called upon to exhibit the beating of the drum upon the call-to-arms, during which he seemed to be carried back to the Wars again, beating his drum with an energy truly remarkable for one of his age.
