Bullet Into Eye
Coughed Up So
Years Afterwards

Kelso, Washington. Sept. 1-P. j.
Knapp, a Civil War veteran, after IS
years, has traced the course of a
bullet he fired at the siege of vicks-
burg.
Some time ago Mr.. Knapp read a
news dispatch saying that w. v.
Meadows, a Confederate veteran of
Lanott, Alabama, had coughed up a
bullet which was shot into his eye at
Nicksburg. Mr.. Meadows, the ac-
count said, was a member Of the 37th
Alabama regiment, and Mr.. Knapp
recalled an incident at the siege,
when he and three other members of
the 5th Iowa Volunteers were called
upon to silence a Confederate sharp
shooter who was firing through a
small hole in a sheet of boiler plate.
After Mr.. Knapp fired, the sharp
shooters shots were discontinued, and
it was surmised that he had been shot
in the eye.
When Mr.. Knapp wrote to Mr..
Meadows. the latter said that he was
the man behind the boiler plate and
, that the bullet entered his right eye
Mr.. Knapp received a photograph of
the bullet and of Mr.. Meadows. The
two veterans have enjoyed a consid
cradle correspondence over the Incl
dent.

the Governors office was proper
place in which to hang the pictures
of some of the men of former gem
eratlons who were prominent in the
early history Of Maine.
In the corridors of the State House
were several very interesting por-
traits so hung as to be almost hidden
from public view. Among these were
old portraits of General Knox, Gov
ernor Pownall and Sir William
Pepperell, painted in the old style
with the scarlet military coats and
with the stock ties of more than a
century ago. Governor Baxter re-
arranged the pictures and had these
placed on the walls so that there is
now An atmosphere of history in the
Governors office.
After these pictures were hung one
place was left and the Governor
searched the walls of the state House
to find an appropriate picture. It
seemed fitting to him that a portrait
of General Neal Dow should be in the
Governors Office, as he was the
father of the Maine law and as he
laid the foundation of what has since
resulted in national prohibition. This
portrait has been taken from the OBJ
scure place in the lower corridor and
placed on the walls of the Governors
office as a symbol of Names pioneer
work in the great movement for
world wide temperance.

highway bonds be used exclusively
for State aid roads.
First: The proposed amendment Is
so loosely drawn that in the opinion
of many able lawyers. it conflicts with
other sections of the Constitution, and
the courts would probably find that
bonds could not be constitutionally

STATE OF MAINE
Proclamation by the Governor.
LAFAYETTE MARINE DAY.

The fate of Europe and of the world
hung in the balance at the Battle of
the Marine. The bayonets of Germany
were about to pierce the heart OF our
sister Republic of France. Providence
interviewed. and France was saved.
Perhaps it was more than a coincl-
dence that this great battle was fought
and Won on the anniversary of the
birth of Lafayette.
The memory of Lafayette and the
record of his unselfish service to the
cause of American independence will
forever bind together the great re-
publics of the United states and
France. The American soldiers Of
1917-191S responded to the call of
France just as the soldiers of France
more than a century ago, under La
fayette, rallied TO our cause.
1t is fitting that september Sixth
day on which both of these great re-
publics pledged anew their faith in
the cause of Liberty. Equality and
Fraternity the world over.
NOW THEREFORE,, l, Percival P:
Baxter, Governor of the state of
Maine, do hereby designate
TUESDAY. SEPTEMBER. 9Th. 1921,
LAFAYETTE MARINE DAY in the
STATE OF MAINE,
and / urge the citizens of Maine to
observe this day by appropriate excr-
cises recalling the life of Lafayette
and the stirring events of the Great
World War. 1t is only by instilling
the lessons of history into the minds
of our people that we can profit by
these lessons and use them for the
guidance of this nation in the years
to come.
Given in the Office of the Gov
ernor at Augusta. and sealed
