Henry Louis Henkel was born
across the sea December %, 1863. In
April, 1889 he came to the United
States On Marcn IND, four years lat
err, he was married to MISS Anna Hol-
lenberger. The union was blessed with
four cnldren. One son, Henry Hilton,
preceded to the Better Land at the
age OF Is months. After prolonged ill
ness the father departed this life
from his home in Lancaster, April IA,
1919, having attained the age or SO
years, months and 16 days, leaving
to mourn their loss his devoted wife,
two sons, Lieut.. Fred Of Camp Funs-
ton, has., Leo, and one daughter, Al
ma at home. Two brothers and two
sisters resided in Europe not heard
from since the world war. Mr.. Henket
was carpenter his work taking him
to various points in the county He
was diligent and faithful laborer, a
patriotic citizen, a most obliging
neighbOr, an upright man whose in
tegrity was unquestiOnable. He held
honorable membership in the follow
ing orders: Odd Fellows, Maccabees,
M. w. A, r. N. A. and E. F. U. He
was consistent member of the Beth
lehem Ev church. In the brotherhood,
as churchman, citizen, neighbor and
friend Henry L. Henkel was never
found wanting in the keeping of tried
faithfulness. He met the require
ments of each day with a purpose to
realize as far as possible HIS place in
Gods wise plan He was called be-
fore the allotted time to cross the mys-
tic river. He is lamented by wide ac-
quaintance. But it is in the home
where the loss is most keenly felt. A
beautiful home that was something
more than a shelter for his beloved
ones, something more than a place
for the display of fine things. AS the
wife and children bring to- mind the
pain that was theirs at the sight OF
the gradual perishing of the body
they also remember with thrills of
JOY the loving labor, the kindly in
diligence that made their home a CEN
trail exchange of love and tenderness
and left with them an assurance Of
reunion in one of the eternal many
mansions reserved for those who
faithfully serve while here. Christ
himself said, IF it were not so |
would have told you"
He lifts me up from deep distress,
He leads me through the darkest
night;
He breathes such words of tender
ness
My doubts and fears all take their
flight.

GENERAL PERSHING
SPEAKS IN LONDON

London, July 17.-Gen. Jonn J.
Pershing met the military members
OF parliament in the committee room
OF the House of Commons today. He
was enthusiastically received when
introduced by Winston Spencer
Churchill, secretary for war. Mr..
Churchill called attention to the fact
that General Pershing had been there
before he and his troops had fought
side by side with the British and,
added the secretary, every day our
feeling has grown stronger for these
gallant men and their gallant COM
mander."
In an address, in which he dis
cussed the sentiment of the Ameri-
can soldiers and people, General
Pershing said:
''You do me signal honor by ac-
cording me the privilege of meeting
you all here at this time. 1 recall
distinctly my last visit more than
two years ago and how I was i'm
pressed by meeting the distinguished
members who guided the destinies
of this nation. You had gone through
the years of war, gaining ripe ex-
perience, and the generosity of our
reception was only equalled by the
eagerness with which you gave US
the benefit of that experience.
1--WE are not military people; we
inherited from you the fear of
standing army. We were wholly un-
prepared, although some of US felt
that we would sooner or later enter
the war. Had it not been for the les
sons learned from you I am sure our
efforts would not have been what
they have been. Our associations
from the start were most pleasant.
was accorded visit to general head
quarters and learned from your COM
mander in chief what was deemed
most important for us to consider
first.
1T was our preference to fight be-
side our own brothers in blood, our
own kinsmen whose courage, aggres-
sion and tenacity we have always ad-
mired and which has had such an in
fiuence on our army in Europe. But
we found the channel ports fully oc-
cupied with your supplies; therefore
we were driven to the Southern ports
of France and compelled to choose
other railroads to the eastern part of
the Western 'front.'
