Former Local Boy
May Be Victim of
Battle IL, France

That Franz Sorensen, aged "a,
young Dane who was employed here five
years ago in the Strub bakery. may be
filing a soldiers grave somewhere IN
France. was learned today In the ar
rival here of Sorensen's brother, Carl
Sorensen Miller, of Eldora- Miller,
who also formerly lived here, was on
his way to Des Moines to report for
assignment in the marines.
| Miller has just received letter
from his mother, Mrs. E. Sorensen, and
another from his sister Augusta, at
Copenhagen, Denmark, the family
home of the Sorensens, telling OF the
wounding Of Franz Sorensen. Word
from the front, received from Danish
consul in France, said that Franz was
in the Anglo American hospital at
! WimereuX In the letter from his
mother Miller was informed that his
Bother was suffering from fractured
arm. Miss Sorensen wrote, however,
that her brother was fatally injured,
and that his right arm was torn away
at the shoulder Miller thinks that the
seriousness of his brothers wounds has
been kept from his mother. AS the
| letters were written SIX weeks ago,
Miller thinks that it was probably
three months ago. or in the big spring
drive, that Franz was wounded, and
| that now either he fills a soldiers
grave, or is convalescent.
| Franz Sorensen was serving with
Canadian regiment, but which one, or
when and where he enlisted, Is UNI
known to the Eldora brother, who has
not known anything of his brother
Franz for a year. 1t has been this
,ong also since the mother and sister
at Copenhagen have heard from their
son and brother, believing him to be
| in this country.
Mrs. Sorensen has three sons in the
service, and an unusual fact in con-
nection with their enlistments is that
each one was not a citizen Of the
country where he enlisted. The other
son is Christian Sorensen, aged 70,
who. when last heard from, was serv-
ing with an English contingent IN
England. Carl Miller who is 80, en-
listed a year ago in Chicago in Bat
terry D. First Illinois field artillery, and
served on the Mexican border. He re-
Gently asked, and was granted. trans
fer to the marines, and has been or
dered to report at the marine recruit
Ing station, Des Moines, today.

stein without any cause whatever, just

Carl Miller. who changed his name
when he came to this country thir-
teen years ago, came here twelve
years ago to work for Peter Nelson,

p!oyed as a press feeder for H. B.
