Maine Man owns Muskst That Wac
iced In Historic Conflict.

Alonzo Smith Of Skowhegan, Me-,
has an old gun. which was used In the
battle Of Bunker Hill, 1871 years ago.
Many who fought on the American
side on the 18th Of June afterward
went to Maine to settle, among them
Billy Smith, q private in the Second
New Hampshire regiment. Mr.. Smith.
the grsat-grandfather Of Alfonso Smith
Of Skowhegan. settled in Cornville In
1870. and his grave 10 In the orchard
on q farm near where his grandson,
Clark e. Smith, now lives. The mus.
ket which Billy Smith carried at Bun.
ker Hill was among his effects brought
to Cornville, and on his death passed
into the hands Of his son, David, and
was by him beQueathed to his grand
son, Sylvester Smith. A few years
ago, when Sylvester left for the west,
he gave the famous old musket to
Sylvester Smith Of Skodhegan, who
now treasures It as q family heirloom.
One remark made by Billy Smith In
relating his experiences at Bunker
Hill has been handed down to his de.
scendants, to the effect that he felt
some repugnance at FIRST in shooting
at the redcoats as they came up the
slope. but after the first few shots he
could as easily take aim at a British
omcer as he could at q partridge. The
gun itself Is in working order. barring
the loss of the flint, and could be
easily re-eQuipped for actual use.

'"Jingy." as the native term the evil
spirit, is constantly avoided and the
curious fact that the black never stops
in any one camp for more than three
days is based on the supposition that
the devil is always on his track hunt
ing him. The number Is the mystic fig
ure In the dull brains Of these natives.
Thus they stay In each bush camp
for three days. They dig three graves
for each dead native in order to fool
"Jingy." The body is placed in the
middle grave upon thick bed Of
leaves and the knees are tied up
against the breast with lashings OF
tree boughs and the arms are crossed
over the breast. rits
