he was he heard the call of his
country and in July, 1917, volunteered
his services. In October, following
he was enlisted. in the signal corps.
For several months he was in traih<
ing At Camp jackson, later, trans
ferred to Newport News, and on June
% he sailed for France.
Horace was a most excellent young
Christian gentleman. He was always
pleasant, polite, deservedly popular
and among the most promising young
men of the town. He was ever
thoughtful of his friends and loved
ones and during the time he was in the
training camps and in service in
France, his parents would receive let
tiers from him at short intervals. 1t
might be said as further testimony of
his true and loyal soldiery, that in all
the communications he has sent to his
parents, not one word of criticism did
he ever utter in regard to the treat
ment he received in the army or CON-
plain at the duties he had to perform.
In one of the last letters to his pa
rents, he explained that he was sleep
ing in a hay-pile in barn at
that time, but that he was faring
nicely.
Horace would have been 81 years of
age on the 18th of next February.
He was a member of the Carthage
Methodist church and a young man
admired by all who knew him, and his
hundreds of friends grieve with his
parents in their great loss. He IS
survived by his parents, tire young
sisters, WiIhelmenia, Mary Cornelia
and Mary Cornelia, one little brother,
and Margaret, one little brother, Will
liam, and his grand father, Mr.. H. Nj.
Hale, with whom his parents have
been residing for many years and for
whom Horace was named.
As a mark of respect the flag at
the Carthage High School building, Of
which institution Horace was a gradu-
ate, and the flag at the court house
were placed at half mast.

CARTHAGE BOYS RECEIVE
DECORATIONS FOR BRAVORY

The daily press of last Sunday car
ried the news that our own Bridges A.
Read. son of Mr.. and Mrs. T. B. Read,
and Theo. Boyd, formerly teacher in
the Carthage High School, had been
decorated by the French authorities
for conspicuous Bravery in action.
This, however, is not surprising to
those who knew anything about tho
mettle of these two fine young men,
and Smith county Is duly proud of
their records. It is understood that
Mr.. Boyd has recently been invalided
20 the United States.

SMITH COUNTY LOSES
FOUR MORE SOLDIERS

Smith county is bowed in sorrow
over the news, since the last issue of

of her valiant soldiers. They are
Horace Webb of Carthage; Ebert
Richardson Of Dixon Springs, w. B.
Neighbors of Hickman, and a Mr..
Marks of Rome. These splendid
young men made the supreme sacri-
fee, having given their lives at their
posts of duty in France, Smith coun-
ty can i'll afford TO lose such brave
young men, and we hope to soon see

proclaiming their deeds of valor with
the others of Smith county's dead
soldiers. We extend consolation and
sympathy 20 the families OF these
boys.
