Muster Roll of Heroes.
In February, 1901, the muster roll
of Capt, Charles Miles’ company of
Concord Minute Men, engaged at the
North bridge, April 10, 1775, was sold
at auction in Boston for $275. This list
of men was the only complete list of
the Concord men in this particular en-
gagement, though the names of nearly
all of them appear in the town's rec
ords scattered through several pages
as they were pald by the town treas

however, are not so arranged as to
