Had Thought Killed on
Battlefield.

Norwalk, O.-Benjamin Robinson, a
former lieutenant in old Company 81.
Cleveland, thought for a time that a
comrade whom he believed dead had
come back from the grave.
While walking on Main street Robin
son stared hard at a man in military
uniform. Brown, is that you?" he
gasped. "Why, the last time l saw
you, old buddy, l thought you were
dead with a bullet through your BRAIN"
said Robinson.
Dudley Brown, the man who came
back to life, was top sergeant Of Rob-
inson's company. He was shot through
the brain during the Argonne drive on
October 81, 1918, and given up as dead.
Later the surgeons saved his life.
Brown was here with the war-trophy
train. Robinson also received a severe
wound while fighting in the Argonne.

legally at par with gold, although the

This was the situation up to the

into effect-that is, as soon as the in

statistical values reported will be the
actual value of foreign moneys as
shown by the prevailing exchange
rate. But for the past the values re-

have been too high by the difference
between the current exchange rates
and the par value of foreign coins.
