A Historical Firearm.

Stephen Hayward of Deer Park,
Boone county, has in his possession a
musket of great historical value. 1t
was captured from a British officer in
Concord, Mass, on April l, 1775. Most
of the British soldiers had left the viii
laee in haste, followed by Americans.
From the window of one of the houses
a fire was kept up on the Americans
by British officer and two soldiers
who had locked themselves in the
room. Mr.. Hayward's great-grand-
father, Hope Brown, and a neighbor
forced the door and entered the room
killing the sold 'ers and capturing the
officer, who proved to be q second
lieutenant. The neighbor secured the
sword and scabbard and Mr.. Brown his
musket.
The musket, being that OF an officer,
is lighter than others of that period
The barrel is 40 inches long, the total
length 56.inches, and weight pounds
ounces. Stamped on the metal is the
name of the srmory where it was made,
Cation, and the year 1862. On a brass
piece near the grip is the Roman num-
eral III, and near the trigger is the
crown with the initials G. r. Stamp

The Jersey Mosquito.

The Jersey mosquito has at all times

that section are never quite sure OF
immunity.
