The old church bell that was used to call the
Perote Guards to gatherings and ultimately to
go to war has been placed in a permanent stand
in the cemetery there at Perote; I was up there
a couple of weeks back, very impressive.

Alan....Lt Dawson did not last with the 53d
Cav either; he returned to the Perote area
and organized Dawson's Co, State Reserve Cav;
may have been a part of Barbiere's Bn.
