AMOS H. KENNISTON, of Lovell. At Sharpsburg, the boys ran out of tobacco and of money as well; the chewers and smokers were uneasy and in misery for want of the "weed. " One evening "Ame, " as he was called, invited some of his mates to go over to the Massa- chusetts sutler, promising to obtain some tobacco. Over they went and presented a squad at the tent of their victim, the sutler, when "Ame" promptly inquired if he had tobacco to sell. The sutler re- plied that he had, produced a plug of "N...avy" and stated the price. "Ame, ' said he would take it and then called for some cheese. It was brought to the spot where "Ame" had stood, but he was not there. "Here is your cheese, " said the sutler. There was a painful silence. "Where is that man who got the cheese?" roared the irate sutler. No one pretended to know but the bystanders grinned at his discom- fiture. The sutler took it philosophically and attributed his loss to "a trick of the 16th Maine, " while the accessories wended their ways to camp in time to share and enjoy their ill gotten gain.
