Red Cross Seeks ..
Relatives of f..
Thomas, Soldier

A letter from Red Cross base hos
pital in France, addressed to "Rela-
tiyes of Private r. Thomas, 121
Church street. Bismarck" was turned
over to Mrs. F. l.. Conklin, secretary
of the Burleigh county Red Cross
chapter today by the local postoffice
authorities. There is no Church
street in Bismarck, and the postoffice
has been unsuccessful in its efforts to
locate reatives of p. Thomas. The
communication may be one of imnort-
ance, probably telling Of the wounding
of r. Thomas, and Mrs. Conklin is
anxious to hear from anyone who has
any knowledge of the young man.
There are no records among Burleigh
county volunteers in the national
guard, the regular army and the navy,
nor among the select service men who
have gone from this county which
would assist in identifying Mr.,
Thomas -..- ...r
