Waltons Daily says that in firing salute
on Wednesday afternoon on the Connecticut
election. two young men of that village were
shOckingly mangled by premature dis
charge of the gun. Peter Lemone lost
| both arms. one leg. and an eve. and died in
the evening. He was but recently mar
ried. Alexander Gingrais lost an arm. and
is badly wounded internally. Both young
men were experienced artillerists, having
served in that capacity in the army. 1t is

escaped rebel bullets on Southern soil. to
