UT.-COYERNOR'S
TRIBUTE TO SCOTT

Fred w. Scott, who died of pneumo-
mia in New York, was accorded mill
tary funeral Sunday afternoon and a
large number of friends attended the
impressive services, which were held
in the Nixon opera house. Rev. p. III.
Willis of the Methodist church offici-
ated and Lieutenant-Governor Maurice
J. Sullivan, as adjutant-general of Ne
vada, delivered tribute to the young
mans memory.
The body lay in state from IL until
o'clock in the opera house, where 1t
was viewed by hundreds of friends.
The high school cadets formed guard
and escort and accompanied the re-
mains to the cemetery, where a part
ing salute of three volleys was fired
and taps sounded as the body was
lowered into its final resting place.
Young Scott. who was the son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas Scott, was one
of the first Humboldt county boys Sc
lected for service. After spending
some time at Camp Lewis he was sent
to New York, preparatory to leaving
for France. In the course of his adj
dress the Lieutenant-Gove said:
MY friends. 1t has been said that
Greater love hath no man than that
he lay down his life for friend On
this occasion permit me to amplify
that statement by saying that TO
greater privilege is granted to good
man than to lay down his life for the
salvation of his country. Here tin
Winnemucca this is to me a day OF
gladness, because there will ever and
always be honored here the memory
of this young patriot who has made
the supteme sacrifice in order that
this beautiful Humboldt basin coun
try may not only be kept free from
the scourge of warfare, but that 1t
may expand in its beneficial produc-
tiveness beyond the fondest dreams of
even the oldest settlers in Humboldt
county.
81 fully realize how heartbroken the
parents and brothers of this young
soldier must be. But it is one of the
fortunes of war. Just as our ances-
tors OF long ago shed their blood and
gave their lives that this glorious land
of freedom might endure. so also has
your blood been shed and life given
for identically the same noble cause.
Words are inadequate to assuage your
grief
THE honor and respect of citizens
OF Humboldt county are now at stake
TO see well to II that the grave of this
young soldier-the first from this sec
tion to die in service of his country
during the present warts kept flt-
tingly marked, so that 1t will be an
inspiration to others who are yet -
go TO the front
"And now. my young comrade Scott,
the time has come to say the saddest
word know-'Good-b byei' My prayer
is that your soul has long since COM
mingled with the army of God and
that you are today a member of the
celestial host that the sounding OF
taps but came TO you as any other
bugle call, that your spirit responded
as ardently as did your body to the
call you heard in the army. and that
when you awakened to attention in
the world beyond you gazed happily
upon the gracious features of the com
manding officer of us all"

Bx GEORGE N. SPARKS

Camp Wheeler, Macon, Ga, April 3.
fSpeciaI.)-In accepting the invitation
by the mayor of Macon and the presf-
dent of the Chamber of Commerce,
Governor Henderson was probably cor
rect when he stated that it would be
the last time the people of Alabama
would have to see their boys on n big
review. He might have added that even
coming to Macon on April he would
mot see many of the Alabama boys,
because Of their having already gone to
France.
GOING AFTER TRUCKS
Thursday morning 1870 of the 106th
supply train, formerly part of the Ala
bama guardsmen, leave for Buffalo to
secure 100 liberty motor trucks for
active service. So sure are the men
that they Will never return to Camp
Wheeler but Will be headed for the

buildings. At the meeting several
speeches were made by prominent
army officers, in which such course

r@rture About 400 members of the
p@ie division are thus sent away ev-

ton
SECRECY MAINTAINED
Their destination and Identification
is kept secret at the camp. 1t was
thought by many that the men thus
selected We're being sent to points IN
the country for training, but all such
ideas were abandoned when the Tus-
CANA was sunk and several of the men
who had left the camp on such mis-
sions were picked up and eported as
among the survivors.
1t is now d general belief that the en-
tire division Will not move as a whole,
but will be sent away in small detach-
ments. This idea iSS given credence by
the fact that Maj. GIN. Francis H. French
was reduced to fAbrigadier general nd
made. Permanent commander of Camp
