cord OF its doings, is able to furnish nara

Camp King, to its return and final discharge
from service at Camp Berry, including the
thrilling stories of such battle-felds as Freder-
icksburg, Charlottesville, Gettysburg, the
Wilderness and Spotsylvania, as well as many
sketches of the picturesque life of the soldier
in his camps and marches. In an appendix
will be given the Roster of all officers com
missioned in the 18th Maine by the Governor,
during It's term Of service, Biographical sketch
es OF officers who have been killed or died in
service, and other matters of interest. seaR
The book. cannot be published unless sui-
ficient number Of subscriptions are received to
pay the expenses of printing, and it is hoped
that the friends of the regiment and all who
wish to see the work published, viii assist in

venience, in order that the publication may
not be delayed 5a <. 81
