This is, OF course. not a complete
list. 1t is all that could be found up
to the year 1893. There are doubtless
many others. But few are left to an
swer to any earthly roll call. While it
will be seen that the men came from
various companies, regiments ana
states, there was a nucleus OF co. p.
Sd Maine, more from that company ana
regiment than from any other. But
one living ex-commander, Harvey X.
Gatchell, is still living.
It is interesting to note the rise OF
the custom of decorating soldiers
graves in Hallowell. The soldiers mon
,,ment that is our pride was dedicated
July q, 1869. and that year the graves
we're first publicly decorated. At first
before there was a G. A. r. post, the
duty was entrusted to committee OF
ex-soldiers. For some years the date
was later than May 80, because OF the
scarcity Of flowers. Gradually the
work became systematized and IN
charge Of the G. A. r. post on Memorial
Day. OF late years Gen. c. w. Tiloen
Camp Sons Of Veterans. has oeen In
charge of the duties OF the day.
