The notice Of the death Of Miss Anna

fall of Colonel Keitt. The writer had
reached home at the time, having been
furloughed on account of severe
wounds received at Spottsylvania
Court House on the Sth Of May.
I spe~t the summer at home, but
recall very distinctly the principal
events of the campaign from the
Rapidan to the James. Grant crossed
the Rapidan the night Of the 4th Of
May, 1864, with 147,000 men. Lee, not
waiting for his antagonist to get into
the open country with his vastly SUI
perior forces, threw his columns into
the Wilderness and in two days of
awful conflict, beat the army Of the
Potomac.
Then followed the ten days strug-
gle at Spottsylvania Court House, be-
ginning the morning Of the Sth of
May. Bafflcd and beaten by the su-
perior leadership and fighting of the
Confed6rates, again Grant and Meade
withdrew from Lees front and sought
to pass by his right toward Richmond.
Again Lee showed TO great advantage
over his adversary by drawing him
into a position at the North Anna
River, where he could not give battle

The lighting was heavy on the 1st and

Of the 3rd day Of June that Grant as

from force Of about 100000. 1t is

Allied .Riae Strength"
Reached Huns ON July l
(By Associated Press)

Washington, Feb. g. The total
strength of the United States army ON
November 11th, when the armistice
was signed and when the American
war effort was at its peak, was 8, ,703,-
27s officers and men, including the
marine corps on duty with the army
IN Europe. These figures were made
public today by the War Department.
They show that on July 1st, for the
first time the allied rifle strength in
men in the trenches ready to go over
the top exceeded the Germans, the al
lies having 1.556.000.
November ist when the enemy re-
serves were exhausted, and the front
line strength reduced by about half,
the allies had rife strength of ST.
$4,000, representing odds upward
two OF one.
When the German drive was launch
ed in the srping Of 1918, the enemy's
definite superiority approximated 20
per cent The arriving Americans not
only made good the allied losses but
steadily increased the allied armies
actually engaged.
Figures on hundreds of thousands
of Americans in training behind the
lines were not given. The meaning
of rife strength was made clear By
the fact that an American division o,
