Mr.. LYMAN Clarke and family left for
Chambersburg this morning, after a five
weeks absence from home. Mr. Clarke
was Connecticut boy who went to
Cbambersburg and started in law. He
saws that at the time of his admission to
the bar he had just thirty-seven cents in
his pocket after treating the judge and
attorneys. During the war he opened his
house to wounded Massachusetts soldiers,
making a hospital OF It: Later he was
bprned out entirely with the rest OF the
town. After the fire he rebuilt again on
the old site, and has since done thriving
business. His war stories, and the expe-
riences they had with rebels, slaves
cholera and distress of all kinds, are most
interesting To hear.
