This meeting closed at five o'clock P.M., to give way for a legal town-meeting to be held in the same place. At the close of this meeting, whieli had been ad- journed to the Saturday following, after remarks by several persons present, the following resolutions were offered by David L. Cowell, which were adopted by the meeting :
" Resolved, That the citizens of North Bridgewater, in fur- nishing their quota of the three hundred thousand volunteers for three years, and the additional quota for nine months, have neither exhausted their means nor their patriotism, hut that they are ready to respond to another call, and still another, if necessary, to put down treason and rebellion.
" Resolved, That the present rebellion is an insurrection of political slaveholders against republican institutions, and there- fore the power of slavery should henceforth be turned to the use of freedom ; that the slaves of rebels should be liberated, and as many of them as are willing armed ; and, while we have unwa- vering confidence in the honesty and patriotism of the Presi- dent, we earnestly implore him to have faith in the people, and go ahead.
" Resolved, That, without detraeting from the merit of thoso who have gone hefore, the alacrity with which our young men come forward in response to the call for nine months' men em- inently entitles them, under the peculiar circumstances of the ease, to he called volunteers."
The number that had enlisted up to the close of the meeting was seventy, each of whom generously offered to relinquish fifty dollars of their bounty of one hundred and fifty dollars, as voted by the town to be paid to each volunteer.
From Aug. 25 to Dee. 9, 1862, the following per- sons enlisted in the nine months' serviee, as appears on the rolls of the various companies from North Bridgewater :

One Hundred Days' Men .- Again in July, 1864, the enemy having marched to within a few miles of the capital, and the Governors of several States feeling desirous to aid in the defense of the same, at their earnest solicitation, they were per- mitted to call for troops to serve for one hundred days. An order was issued by Gen. William Schou- ler, from the headquarters at Boston, July 8, 1864, calling for four thousand men to do garrison duty in the forts in and around Washington, to be raised immediately. In response to the above call, forty- two companies were in camp at Readville in less than ten days after the order was issued. Again did North Bridgewater come up nobly to the work of fill- ing up the ranks. A company of a hundred and one, rank and file. was recruited. and left the town under the command of Capt. Uriah Macoy, July 13, 1864. The company left town in the morning train of cars for Readville. A large concourse of the friends of the company assembled at the depot to witness their departure, and to bestow their parting good wishes.
