OFFICERS OFFER
TRIBUTE TO DEAD
HERO LIEUTENANT

Three army officers at Camp Lee.
Va. who were close companions OF
Lieutenant A. c. Edwards when
they were attending the officers
training school at Fort Sheridan,
have added tribute to the memory
of the former assistant states at
torney of Rock Island county.
A letter was published in Chi
cago newspaper from them, writ
ten at Camp Lee, as follows:
I'VE have read In the list or
killed in action in France the name
of Lieutenant Adrian G. Edwards
Of Illinois.
"As we have not the address Of
Lieutenant Edwards family to send
personal expression of our admir-
alton for the character of this won
derfuI spirit in life and our grief
at his passing, we are taking the
opportunity OF writing this tribute
in the hope that it may reach those
dear to the valiant officer whose
life went out to make the world
safe for others to live in.
Lieutenant Edwards was over
draft age. He did not, therefore,
have to get into the war. He went
because he believed it his duty.
HE and the signers of this let
ter were members of the same COM
pany at the second training camp
at Fort Sheridan. We bunked in the
same barracks, very close to orr
another.
80 we got to know the man and
to appraise a character so lofty, so
unselfsh. SO consecrated as to
mark him, in the highest sense Of
the term, a man dedicated.
at was the last week of October,
or the first of November that our
company occupied the trenches az
Fort Sheridan. 1t was bitingly
cold and two nights of sleeplessness
had left us unusually sensitive to
the weather.
Eight of us constructed a SHAH
low dug-out with the idea Of get
ting few hours of sleep the third
night. Darkness came on with the
retreat large enough to accommo-
date seven men only.
Edwards, who had done perhaps
more work in the actual construc-
ton than any of the eight, insisted
on staying up all night while the
others slept.
THAT bit of self-abnegation and
service to others was typical of
Adrian c. Edwards during the -
weeks we were associated at Fort
Sheridan. We shall long think OF
him as the personifcation of the
highest type of Illinois manhood.
