Libby Prison Bread In DeerIne

To the Editor of the Press:
Noticing your item in today's PRESS that
Mr.. Bonney's bareback was the last ration
served to him Tin the Southern prison pre-
sume) in 1865. reminds me of another stale
piece of coarse bread now in the possession
Of DIR. Parker Of MorrilPs Corner, which he
showed me few years ago. DR.. Parker was
assistant surgeon of the Second Maine Cav
airy, and was attending wounded Union SOL
diers on the field of battle, when he was taken
prisoner, after the battle, by rowing squad
Of rebel cavalry, and immured In Libby
Prison. This piece of bread he saved from
to of his captivity and treatment. / pre-
sumo the doctor still has this relic of a ra-
ton, which was far from rational.

THE MONTGOMERY VETERANS
Co to Long Island and Enjoy a
clam Bake.
The Weather Rad But a Good Time
Enjoyed.

When the Montgomery Guards and their
guests, the Montgomery Veterans, awoke
yesterday morning, the same weeping skies
greeted the eyes that closed on them the
night previous. 1t was hoped the weather
would change so that the exercises of the
flag raising at Kavanagh school could
take place, but the floods descended
and they were postponed until the first
fair day.
AT loa. m. ranks were formed, and headed
ny the Salem Cadet Band, the companies
marched to the wharf where the steamer
Emita was taken for Long Island for the
clam bake. The rain did not dampen the
spirits Of the gay party that did justice to
the regular Maine clam bake and enjoyed
felicitous post.prandial exercises. The bake
was a fine one and the hole the boys made in
1t demonstrated the fact that if fog and rain
does nothing else it sharpens appetites.
Capt. Hartnett presided over the social
exercises and they were exceedingly inter-
esting. Col. John j. Lynch, Mr.. Jas. A.

and Col. Mcnamara and Col. Doherty were
