his stock of goods and was engaged as a teacher of penman- ship in the town schools until 1836. During that year he began the study of medicine with Dr. Nathaniel Pease, of Bridgton, and after three years graduated in the medi- cal department of Bowdoin College, in the class of 1839. Previous to his graduation he had taken a three-months' term in hospital practice at McLean Hospital, Boston.
In 1839 he began the practice of medicine at Kenne- bunkport. After one year he went to Lyman, where he remained for three years, and after three years more prac-

tice in the northern part of the town of Kennebunk, he removed to the village of Kennebunk in 1846, where he resides in 1879, having spent the whole of this time in the practice of his profession. In 1877, by over-exertion and exposure, he became prostrated by a bilious fever, which left his nervous system considerably impaired and unfitted him for the duties of his profession. He is a man of strong temperanee proclivities; never used tobacco or liquor. He has taken such strong ground on the temperance question that his influence in his own family has resulted in strictly temperate habits in his children. Dr. Ross was formerly identified with the Whig party, and joined the Republican party upon its organization. Dr. Ross has been known in his profession as a judicious and skillful physician, and as a man of striet integrity in all business relations.
He married, Oet. 14, 1840, Elizabeth, daughter of Daniel and Sarah (Walker ) Holden, of Sweden, Me. She was born in Otisfield, Cumberland Co., Me., May 14, 1817. They had seven children, two of whom died in infancy. Those living are Annette, wife of S. T. Fuller, a civil engi- neer of Philadelphia, Pa. ; Isabel, wife of H. B. Thompson, of Kennebunk ; Orren S., a civil engineer in Philadelphia, Pa .; Frank M., a graduate of Jefferson Medical College, Philadelphia, Pa., in the class of 1873, and practicing medicine in Kennebunk ; and Florence H., wife of James K. Cross, a bank official in Philadelphia, Pa.

WAR OF THE REBELLION.
York County Soldiers in Different Regiments -Twenty-seventh Regiment-Record of Officers-Bonnties-Military Record of York County by Towos.
THE military records hereunto appended show that York County was represented in a large number of regiments during the late war of the Rebellion. The place of general rendezvous, and largely of enlistments for volunteers from this county, was the city of Portland, where nearly all regi- ments into which York County men entered, as well as those from the western part of the State generally, were made up and sent forward to the seat of war. The fires of patriotism burned as ardently here as in any other portion of the great North at the outbreak of the war and during its continuance ; the people of this county felt as keenly the insult offered to the flag of our common country, when it was traitorously shot away by rebel guns from the ram- parts of Fort Sumter; the great crime of attempting to break up the Union was as indignantly execrated by the loyal people of this portion of Maine as by those of any other seetion of New England ; and when the call came for volunteers to maintain the integrity of the government and preserve the priceless treasures of our free institutions, the response from the people was equal to the demands of the occasion. The citizens rallied at the call of the President, and, with an alacrity and dispatch never equaled in the raising of an army, enlisted, equipped, and sent forward their respective quotas. This county had her soldiers in the fol- lowing regiments : the 5th, 8th, 9th, 12th, 13th, 14th,
15tb, 16th, 17th, 18th, 20th, 25th, 27th, 30th, 31st, and 32d Regiments Maine Infantry, extending from the begin- ning to near the close of the war; in the 7th Battery of Mounted Artillery, the 1st and 2d Cavalry, the Ist Regi- ment of Veteran Infantry, the 29th unassigned, and largely in the United States Army and Navy, besides many who enlisted in New Hampshire and other States. We have aimed to give as complete a list as possible, ineluding the foreign enlistments, so far as it has been practicable to obtain the names from the Adjutant-General's reports and other sources.
THE TWENTY-SEVENTH REGIMENT MAINE VOLUNTEER INFANTRY
is that which may be specially denominated the York County Regiment, as it was made up, with but very few exceptions, of enlistments from the different towns of the county. This regiment was organized at Portland, Sept. 30, 1862, with the following field-, staff-, and line-officers :
Rufus P. Tapley, Colonel, Saco.
Mark F. Wentworth, Lieutenant-Colonel, Kittery. James M. Stone, Major, Kennebunk. Edward M. Rand, Adjutant, Portland. Lewis O'Brien, Quartermaster, Saco. John E. L. Kimball, Surgeon, Saco. Freeman Hall, Assistant Surgeon, North Berwick. Calvin L. Hayes, Sergeant-Major, Kittery. John Hall, Quartermaster Sergeant, North Berwick. William H. Tapley, Commissary Sergeant, Saco. Ivory M. Hodsdon, Hospital Steward, Saco. Charles E. York, Drum-Major, Biddeford.
The 27th Regiment was organized to serve for nine months. It left Portland, Oet. 20, 1862, for Washington, and arrived in that city on the 22d, where it remained till the 26th, and then marched to Camp Chase, on Arlington Heights, Va. On the 28th the regiment removed to Camp Seward, where they were engaged in picket duty until the 12th of December, when they marched to Camp Vermont, south of Hunting Creek, Va., and there guarded a picket line eight miles in length, extending from the Potomac near Mount Vernon to the Orange and Alexandria Railroad. They continued in that duty until the 24th of March, 1863, on which day they moved to Chantilly, Va., and eommenced picket duty on the outermost line of infantry in the defenses of Washington. On the 25th of June they returned to Arlington Heights.
The term of service of the regiment having expired, they were at liberty to return home ; but a large portion, at the request of the President and Secretary of War, volun- teered to serve a short time longer, to aid, if necessary, in defending the capital against the incursion of Gen. Lee, who had at that time commenced the invasion of Pennsyl- vania. On the 4th of July they left for Maine, and arrived in Portland on the 6th, where, on the 17th, they were mustered out of the United States service.
Company A .- George H. Ward, Saco, Captain ; Samuel H. Libby, Limerick, First Lieutenant ; Frank L. Harmon, Saco, Second Lieutenant.

ROSCOE G. DENNETT, M.D., was born in Bux- ton, Me., Feb. 10, 1835. His grandfather, Clement Dennett, born in Scarborough Jan. 10, 1763, settled as a farmer in Buxton December, 1786 ; died 1841, Aug. 10; married, Jan. 3, 1793, Mary, daughter of Samuel Leavitt, of Buxton. She died July 28, 1863, aged ninety-four years and fourteen days. His great-grandfather, David Dennett, a farmer, born in Portsmouth, N. H., March 15, 1727, moved to Scarborough Oct. 3, 1768, married Dolly Downing, of Newington, N. H. He enlisted in the Provincial service Jan. 18, 1776; left on foot with his gun for Boston, and never returned. Died in 1778.
His father, Daniel Dennett, of Buxton, was born May 31, 1807, and married Abigail Gilpatric, of Biddeford. He had six sons, viz. : Liberty B., now living in Deering, Me., with law-office in Portland; Roscoe G., second, now clerk of the courts in Cum- berland County; James C., died in 1865, aged eighteen years; Lora D., studied in Portland Medi- cal School; Samuel C., a farmer on the homestead in Buxton ; and Roscoe G., the subject of this sketch. The latter received his preparatory education in Limerick and Standish Academies; studied medicine with Dr. J. A. Berry, and graduated at Bowdoin Medical College in 1862. He began practice im-
mediately in Saco, where he continued an ornament to the profession till his decease, which occurred Dec. 14, 1878.
Dr. Dennett was city physician, 1868, alderman, 1873, member of the Board of Health, 1874, 1875, 1876, 1877 ; was a member of the Masonic Lodge, and Royal Arch Chapter, and president of the York Institute.
Dr. Dennett married, Sept. 1, 1863, Annie O., youngest daughter of Dr. Berry. She was born Feb. 19, 1839. By this marriage there were three children : James Vaughan, born Sept. 26, 1867; William Hartley, born Sept. 15, 1870; Bessie Greeley, born June 13, 1875; died Dec. 14, 1878. Dr. Dennett died July 3, 1877, after a long ill- ness.
We take the following extract from a notice of his death in the Saco paper :
"He was a man universally respected and es- teemed by all who had the honor and pleasure of his acquaintance. He was a gentleman in every sense, a thorough scholar, and in his profession eminently successful. He leaves a wife and three children, and a host of friends to mourn his death. Of him it can truly be said, 'none knew him but to love him.'"

GEN. WILLIAM M. MCARTIIUR.
GEN. WILLIAM M. MCARTHUR, of Limington, at the outbreak of the Rebellion, in April, 1861, raised a company at his own expense, which was disbanded in May. In Sep- ber, 1861, he raised another company, and was mustered into the United States service as captain of Company I, 8th Maine Volunteers, in the same month, and with his regiment formed part of the Port Royal expedition under General Sherman and Admiral Dupont. In the spring of 1862, at the reduction and capture of Fort Pulaski, Georgia, Capt. MeArthur had command of the entire detail from his regiment, and when a boat was sent by the general com- manding to accept the surrender of the fort, another boat was sent over with the regimental colors of the 8th Maine, under charge of Capt. MeArthur, in recognition of his ser- vices and those of his men in Battery Sigel. The general commanding, in his report to the Secretary of War, says, ---
"Capt. McArthur, of the Sth Maine Vols., being highly praised by different officers who witnessed his successful management of his men at the batteries, deserves my commendation."
In the summer and fall of 1863, Capt. McArthur was made provost-marshal of the important military post of Hilton Head, S. C., the base of operations against Charles- ton. In March, 1864, the regiment was ordered to Vir- ginia, and Capt. McArthur was commissioned major. Maj. McArthur commanded the regiment during the latter part of the battle of Drury's Bluff ( Col. Boynton having been wounded), also at Gill's Farm, and specially distinguished himself at Cold Harbor and before Petersburg, June 13, 16, 17, and 18, 1864. On the 18th of June, Maj. Mc- Arthur was severely wounded, but rejoined his regiment in August, before his wound was healed. He soon after was commissioned lieutenant-colonel. At the battle near the old Fair Oaks battle-ground, Lieut .- Col. McArthur was most conspicuous for his intrepid bravery. He had the charge of the skirmish line when nearly half of the line were killed or wounded. At Spring Hill, in December, 1864, he commanded the fort, and conducted its defense when it was surrendered by Longstreet's corps; was coul- missioned colonel in March, 1865, and after the taking of Richmond commanded the military post at Manchester, Va., until November, 1865 ; was then placed in command of the sub-district, Camp Hamilton and Hampton, Va., until his muster out of the United States service. On leaving the service Col. McArthur was brevetted brigadier- general upon the recommendation of Gen. Terry.
Gen. McArthur was slightly wounded in several actions with the enemy, but declined to report himself. He was also specially named in the official reports of many of the actions in which he was engaged, for his coolness and bravery.
CAPT. GEORGE A. DEERING.
Capt. George A. Deering, of Saco, received a recruiting commission from Governor Washburn in June, 1862, and at once proceeded to reeruit men for the new regiments then being raised. In August of that year he was mus- tered into the service at Augusta, by Maj. Gardiner, as second lieutenant of Co. F, 16th Maine Volunteers. He participated in the first battle of Fredericksburg, under

HISTORY OF YORK COUNTY, MAINE.
Gen. Burnside, on the 13th of December of that year, and for meritorious conduct on that occasion was promoted to first lieutenant. He also shared in all the battles of the Army of the Potomac up to the battle of Gettysburg. In that battle he had command of Companies F, D, and A, and late in the afternoon of the 1st of July, after the fall of his corps commander, Gen. Reynolds, he, together with his entire command, was captured by the enemy and marched through the Shenandoah Valley to Richmond, where he was confined in Libby prison for ten months. He was afterwards sent to Macon, Ga., thence to Savannah, and finally to Charleston, S. C., where, during the months of August and September, he, with other Union officers, was confined in the jail-yard, under the fire of the guns from Gen. Gillmore's batteries on Morris Island. He was then removed to Columbia, S. C., where he remained until Dec. 10, 1864, when, after having been subjected to ret el cruelty, imprisonment, and privation, he was so fortunate as to effect his escape by assuming the name of a commis- sary sergeant of an Ohio regiment who had died or was not present to answer to his name at roll-call. During his imprisonment he was promoted to the captaincy of his old company (F), but his health had become so much impaired by his confinement in Southern prisons that he did not re- join his regiment till May 1, 1865, and was mustered out of service at Washington in June following.
From the Bowdoin College roll of honor in the late war we take the following :
