The Carrollton community was, "filled with joyous pride when we think of the loyal and patriotic response that was made by the men of Co. H". "Within hours after the orders had been received people began gathering on the streets to see the boys start. A little past seven they came out from the Armory and the orders were given to march. The crowd fell in after them and hundreds followed them in the march. Others came in automobiles and buggies and the streetcar was crowded to its capacity.
