Among the troops now in this town from Ok.

were preparing to march last week taking leave

dozen more to 60"
The sons Of such q mother will receive no

A lady in this village remarked that she felt
as tcenly as mother could the absence of her
son, who had gone soldier to the Aroostook,
but with all her anxiety she would rather he
would be shot than to have him return disgra
