In the battle of Roanoke Island was a private named Earle, belonging to one of the Rhode Island regiments. The night before going into battle, he sat up till twelve or one o'clock, reading aloud to his fellows Conway's Rejected Stone. When he engaged in the fight next morning, he had the book in his breast-pocket. During the engagement, a rifle-ball struck him full in the breast, and would have made short work of him but for the Rejected Stone, which turned the ball and saved his life.--Boston Transcript, April 5.
