[LITTLE ROCK] ARKANSAS TRUE DEMOCRAT, August 27, 1862, p. 1, c. 7
Musicians Wanted.
Twelve Players are wanted immediately in Col. Sweet's Regiment. Having the best of instruments, liberal wages will be paid to those who are good Musicians. The leader will receive [illegible] per month in addition to the allowance established by army regulations. Those who wish a place in the band will come to the encampment at once, near Austin, Prairie county, Ark.

(Sweet's regiment was the 15th Texas Cavalry Dismounted)
