the most seriously iojured soldiers of east
ern Maine W no came out OF the war alive,
with the exception of Eben Smith, who
lost leg at the hip joint.
Those terrible wounds were received
while be was carrying his comrade, Samuel
A. Bragdon, in his arms from the field of
battle, and this same bali that wounded
MIR. Butler In the right arm and left hand
mortalIy wounded Mr.. Bragdon, and he
died the next day.
