Famous quotes containing the word march:
“One of the most interesting and affecting things [on a difficult return march from a raid into Virginia] is the train of contrabands, old and young, male and female—one hundred to two hundred—toiling uncomplainingly along after and with the army.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
