March 27, 1863 – Bangor Men Don’t Want Copperhead Rag

The Bangor Company D, 1st Me. Regiment Heavy Artillery, have sent from Fort Alexander resolutions denouncing the Bangor Democrat, a Copperhead sheet, which had recently been freely sent to them. They say :—

“We look upon that paper as more towards advancing treason than any one paper published in the South ; we would therefore request our friends to discontinue sending any more of them to us.—
