LOCAL SOLDIERS
Die AT MEADE
Influenza Takes Its Toll of Garrett
COuntians-WOunded in Action

Several Garrett county homes have
been made sad in recent days by news
from Camp Meade and the battlefields
of Europe conveying the intelligence of
the deaths of three soldiers in the for
mer and the wounding severely of one
upon the latter.
Private Albert Enlow, Company G,
Seventy second Infantry, died at the
Maryland cantonment Monday of pneu-
monia, following an attack of influenza.
Private Enlow was aged twenty eight
years and was the eldest son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Reuben Enlow of near Hoyes, and
was one of the county's best known
educators prior to entering the service
during the summer just ended. He was
principal of the Deer Park public school
last winter and prior thereto had been
successful as teacher in other schools
of the county, especially at KitzmilIer,
where he endeared himself to both pu-
pills and patrons of the.school. Private
Elbows body arrived in Oakland this
morning and will be taken to Hoyes for
interment. His father and brother, the
latter in service at Meade. were at his
bedside when the end came.
Another death at Meade which cast
a distinct gloom over this immediate
community Monday was that of Private
Earl Reese Savedge of Battery E, Thir-
ty-third Field Artillery, which sad event
took place Sunday afternoon. Death
was due to pneumonia, superlnduced by
an attack of influenza with which he
had been suffering but few days. He
was the son of Mr.. and Mrs. Charles R.
Sayedge of Deer Park. and went into
service few months ago. He was
aged nearly twenty three years and was
highly esteemed tor his many kind traits
and splendid character. Private Saw
edges remains are not expected to ar
rive at Deer Park before tomorrow,
hence no funeral arrangements at this
time can be announced. When the end
came Private Savedge's father was at
his bedside and arrived home Monday
morning.
Private Grover Cleveland Lohr. Com
pany E, Eleventh Ammunition, Train was
the third local soldier to die at Meade
this week. his death having occurred on
Tuesday at three O'Clock and from the
same cause as that of his two comrades
above named. He was the son of Mr..
and Mrs. Alfred Lohr of near Swanton.
In response to a message from Meade
stating her son was dangerously i'll.
Mrs. Lohr went to Meade Sunday morn
ing and was with her son when he pass
ed away The remains will be sent to
the home for interment.
Yesterday official casulty list Of the
severely wounded in action contained
the name of CORPORAL John A. Johnston,
STanton. He went to Meade from
here more than year ago and was later
transferred to Camp Gordon and made
a member of the 326th Infantry, going
overseas some months ago.

TAE DEATH RECORD.
PAUL DAVID LITTLE.

RAUL DAVID LII LIE.
Paul David Little, son of Thomas
Little, passed from among US Sabbath
night. He had been engaged in work
near Fairmont for some months and
was victim of the influenza. He was
taken to hospital from which place he
was brought home by his father, where
every attention was given him and
everything possible was done for him.
But that dread disease pneumonia did
its work speedily and after a few DAYS
he fell asleep. as peacefully as a child
in its mothers arms. He had many
friends and was esteemed by all who
knew him for his manly qualities. He
was one of the good boys of the com
munity. He was a member of the
PRESBYTERIAN church to which place his
body was carried for the last rites, and
from which it was carried to the Gem
etery for burial yesterday afternoon at
2:30 p. m. The services were conduct
ed by his pastor, Dr. Ely. Rev w.
M. Shultz of the NJ E. church assisted.
This is one of the mysteries of provi-
dence. We cannot understand why,
but we know that our Heavenly Father
doeth all things well.
The part of wisdom for each one is to
be ready so that we may depart and be
with Christ.
"Be ready Many fall around,
Our loved ones disappear;
We know not when our call may come,
Nor should we wait in fear;
If ready, we can calmly rest,
Living or dying we are blest."

A letter was received recently by
Miss Jeanne DeBerry from her brother.
Corporal Preston G. DeBerry, 3O7th
Ammunition Train, in active service
with the American Expeditionary Forces
IN France. The letter follows, in part:
Just arrived at this place yesterday
a. m. and don't know how long We'll be
here.
Have had two weeks of handling am
munitlon, sometimes in daylight and
sometimes thru the night, so we NAV
get little lay off.
We had few interesting times thru
this last job-used our gas masks
several times and one night we went
into dug-out about like a rabbit does
when dog is after 1T. That night the
artillery was having little duel.
We see the Boche aeroplanes almost
every day and hear them at night Saw
one work on two observation balloons
one morning and it was done in less
time than | could tell about it. When
he dived down for the first one, he
missed with about twenty-five shots
from machine-gun, but as he passed
the second he opened up on it, and it
took fire and was soon burned up. The
men in both of them jumped and land
ed in their parachutes.
The German army is being pushed
back on all fronts and many prisoners
taken. If the good work keeps up it
surely will not be a great while until
they are through.
We are near a town here where we
can get nuts and some kinds of fruit
Have had some fine ripe tomatoes, also
peaches.
There is "Y" here that sells candy,
cookies, gum, etc. besides furnishing
US writing material.
1t is getting dark now and as We are
not allowed to have any light must
close. Have nice bed Of pine boughs
fixed so think | will soon use it.
Love to all,

That can tell how beloved was she that's

Or how deep in our hearts we deplore them

IT'S the one sad remembrance fondly kept.
When all lighter grief's are faded.
