MILITARY EXCEPTIONS BY THE BOARD OF EX-
ENPTI0NS.


To the Editor Of the Whis:
It has been with shame and mortfoation that the
writer Of this paragraph has peen printed daily In the
public Journals the list Of military exemptions made by
the Board of Exemption now sitting in this city.
Comparatively speaking, young men-Ousiness men
and others-men who have been, are now, and would
be found for years to come in time of peace, prose-
cutting the Gbors Of their calling profession with all
the zes aud energy Of woodworking from early morn
until IL, H. and even O'Clock at night-are at this
time wheh their country Is calling upon her sons old
and young to come the rescue Of all that makes the
life cf freeuea dear to hem--Lb:rIy, wife, children
mother sister, snd lastly life s,lf-crOwding this court
of exemption and putting pleas Of excuse that would
raise The nge Of shame upon the cheeks of ali true
patriots.
Shame aud confusion Of face to all such.
lis hoped that the papers will not conne themselves
to simple publication Of these eIemps but that they
VII keep their name heiOrs the pubic in lasting re
membIAncS.
The writer this although upwards Of 81 years old
and for the last Is years Of his life has been su ring on
bronchial neurigie snd rheumatic diseases combI ed
does consider himself subject Of exemption but
on the contrary believes be shoot down the base In
vaders of ou rights aud liberty with unerring aim
and certainty any young man OF 25 years grouh.
