From the Richmond Examiner, 9/19/1862

CAMP MARYLAND. – Three companies of Marylanders, Captains Herbert's, McAlear's and Torsche's companies, are now quartered at Camp Maryland, which is contiguous to Camp Winder. The companies embrace in the aggregate over three hundred men of the "old line" State's most select material. Yesterday afternoon a grand turn out of all the companies occurred in honour of the day. The companies looked exceedingly well on parade, and their proficiency in the drill is the praise and comment of all the regular and militia officers who have been brought in contact with them. They march towards the border soon.
