Small Cold Beers
Blamed for Death
Of One Grenadier

Carlinviile, H., Feb. S.-Soldiers
visiting places of interest in Eng
land come across many unusual
sights. A letter received from a
Springfield boy included the fol-
lowing, with the statement that il
was the inscription on a tombstone
in an English cemetery:
In memory Of Thomas ThetCh-
er, a grsnadier in the north regi-
ment of Hant's militia, who died of
violent fever contracted by
drinking cold small beers, when
hot, the 18th day Of May, 1854, aged
&c years.
I'm grateful remembrance Of
whose immortal good will towards
his comrades this stone is placed
at their expense as a final test:-
monial Of their regard and con-
Germ.
Here sleeps in peace a Hamp-
shire grenadier,
Who caught his death by drinking
cold small beers.
Soldiers be wise from his untimely
fall,
And when hot. drink strong ones or
none at all.
An honest soldier is never forgot,
Whether he dies of musket or by
not"

the contrary, it will be conducted
only after the widest advertising,

of Private Michael ]. Feeney OF
Company C, One Hundred Four

commanding officer, who vouches
for its authenticity Lieutenant

The Twenty-ninth division was
in heavy fighting in a wooded dis

"Feeney and his running mate,
Brady, were occupying the same
bunk-hole in the woods writes
Lieutenant Lang. There was just
some tangled underbrush between
them and the lines OF the boches
close in front. During the early
morning there was a boChe machine
gun serenade and things were hum

useless, but Feeney, with all the
hereditary temper of his race,
wasn't long in deciding that the
'Dootchmen' were a dirty lot and
needed a beating. He had no gun
and no grenades, so, with a curse
at the kaiser and his servants, he
stood up in plain view of the en-
envy and threw rocks and stones at
the Huns a few yards away
They evidently didn't feel safe
facing Feeney and his mate, Brady,
and thinking they were due for
shower of grenades. beat a mighty
hasty retreat for their own terri
tory
Il went over to Feeney. and, try

the Germans. Feeney didn't see
