Pvt. William f. Stahl Re
turns From France and
Straightens Out Story
of His Marriage.
MUST Be ANOTHER ONE
Soldier First Hears Of His Marriage
When He Reads the Account in the
Paper-says He Does Not Even
Know a Girl at Rockford

Even Cupid makes mistake once
in a while and with all these war
romances "and everything" who could
blame him.
These are the sentiments of Pvt.
William F. Stahl, who fought his way
in France with the Blackhawks and re-
turned to Kenosha on Monday on the
lookout for the "little Teller" who
habitually dresses in d bow and culver
of arrows. Report and the newspapers
had it that the Kenosha soldier, while
he had never lowered his gun to the
Huns, had capitulated to Cupid down
at Camp Grant just before he left to
sail for France. Now he is trying to
figure out where the dickens the report
came from anyway.
Cupid must have got his wires crossed
someway. Along in October word came
from girl down in Rockford-we
needn't bother about her name-that
she and Private William F. Stahl, had
been married just before he left for
Camp Mills, New York. She had the
date, the church, the preacher and all,
even to the roses she carried. The
story sounded authentic and without
further proof the account of the we'd
ding, brief though it was, appeared in
the columns of this paper.
Private Stahl, oblivious, as he says,
that Cupid even had designs on him,
sailed away to France and like many
another Kenoshan had the papers fol-
dow him. His first intimation of his
wedding" came one night in France
when ne read the account of il in the
paper from the States. He has been
wondering ever since then what really
happened and who the strange "Mrs.
Stahl" could be.
1T must have been some other Will
lie Stahl," he said today. elf was
married, / didn i know anything about
it," Then he proceeded to say that
he didn t have the least idea who the
girl at Rockford could be nd that he
had not even had the least bit Of war
romance While he was at Camp Grant.
He declares that he knows no explana-
tion for the tangle but wants his
friends in Kenosha to know that Kit
was all a mistake"
Meanwhile he would like to have
just one look at the "Mrs. Stahln from
Rockford and one chance to get even
with the prank-plcying god of love
