Failed to Get Notice In Time
To Go With BOYS.

John J. Hetzel, jr.. OF this city. who
las been working in Baltimore, ar
rived here this morning and immed-
lately reported to the local exemp.
ton board for military duty, and was
instructed to proceed TO Camp Green
leaf. Ca, to take his place with the
% men sent from this city on Tues
day.
Mr. Hetzel was the twenty.fourth
man in the contingent summoned
from Martinsburg, but the telegram
notifying him to report did not each
him until o'clock Tuesday night,
and he was therefore unable to get
here in time to accompany the boys.
He was not expecting TO be summon
ed at this time. and was one of the
seven additional men required to be
sent by the military authorities.
II was stated yesterday that Ben
jamin Lyeth had been placed in
charge of the contingent. This was a
mistake. as Marvin III, Peery was In
charge of the boys, having been
commissioned by the exemption
board for this duty.
