100 men who had been in quarantine |
or a month, broke loose TO receive Il. !
There were rOusing cheers for the war |
rophies and for Uncle sam and the /
boys over there and everything else, /
md while this was going on, bond I

10000 worth were sold.
Milton gave the train a big reception. /
rhe station was covered with flags, /
md everybody turned out to hurrah /
or bonds and boys and war trophies. |
This is one OF the smallest towns in |
