Hair Growing on a Bullet.

Henry Matthews, of POttsville, who was
a member of Company ii, Forty-eighth
Pennsylvania Volunteers, was wounded
i'm the head at Cold HarbOr in 1864. The
ball entered the back part OF the head and
and was taken out little above the fore
head on top of the head. His skull was
pretty badly fractured, but the man re-
covered. The bullet was retained by Mr..
Matthews, and is perhaps one of the most
wonderful curiosities in existence. 1t has
the appearance of age, and somewhat re-
sembles a clam shell: At the back end oil
tbe hall a bunch of black>hair has been
growing for wears. At one time the hair
had attained a growth of fully one inch.
The relic was exhibited at the Philadel-
phia and Reading depot recently by
George Rain, a clerk in Mr.. Smiths Office.
Mr.. Matthews, who is employed by the
Reading Company at POttsville, was Of
fered 500 for the ball, but refused to ac-
