The Granite monthly : a magazine of literature, history and state progress . Hopkins, others. island during the bombardment, andit was rare to find a tent without oneor more of them as dangerous, however, as itproved in one instance, when oneused as a candlestick exploded, kill-ing two and wounding several othersoldiers, a fragment flying in thedirection of a group of which thewriter was one, making them thinkfor the time being that euchre was awicked game, after all.
