arrested in st. Adams on Monday by
Capt. Rolla Gleason, Provost Marshal, and

in charge of Capt. Gleason. Stone, says
the Burlington Times, was in Franklin
County about two years ago, when he pro-
voked loyal men greatly by his outspoken
treason. But few days since he made
his temperance in Berkshire, where his
