Aledo, Ill. May 29.-The first
hero of "Aledo's own" for
merly Company B, now in
cluded in Battery B, One Hundred
Twenty-third field artillery, rushed
to a mothers and sisters anxious
arms and a fathers bedside Tues
day afternoon, following an abb
sence from his home of over year.
1t was private Adm Guthrie, son
of Mr.. and Mrs. George Guthrie,
| 300 West Eleventh street, one of
Aledo's heroes and the first Mer-
Ger county lad to return Of those
with Battery B, One Hundred
Twenty-third field artillery.
When interviewed by an Argus
representative Guthrie had little tc
say. 1--WE didn't do much,' he de-
clared modestly. I'VE were only
in action AZ days, when on Oct. II,
1918, we were ordered back to an
ordnance supply depot in order
that our regiment could be motor
lied. You see all of our horses had
been killed. We did not go back in
the line before the armistice."
Upon being pressed Private
Guthrie admitted taking part in the
st. Mihiel and Meuse-Argonne
drives, his regiment backing up
the First division doughboys with
big 6-inch or 155-millimeter guns.
Our casualties were very
light" said Private Guthrie. This
was due to the fortunate imperfect
condition of the German shells.
Over two-thirds Of those to land
near us proved to be "duds," that
is, ones which would fail to ex-
plode."
Frank Warnock, son of Mrs.
Mary Warnock, was the only AledO
boy to be wounded during the per-
iod at the front. He was a pal of
Guthrie's and the shell that struck
him killed two men and injured Is
of a battery mess kitchen only a
few feet away. Guthrie was sitting
close by the side of Warnock when
a steel fragment shattered the leg
of the latter.
1t proved Guthrie's unusual for
tune to spend two birthdays in the
army away from his home. One he
celebrated before sailing from the
United States, during the time that
the regiment was stationed at
Camp Logan, while the other he
enjoyed in Luxembourg, France.
To the question, early put to him,
as to when the rest will be home
Guthrie declared it to be his Opin-
ion that weeks time should suf-
flee for all necessary arrange
ments. All the boys are well and
in fine spirits, he declared
Although his arrival was ex-
pected by his parents, the exact
time of his coming was unknown.
His father although critically i'll of
typhoid fever, recognized his son
and appeared overjoyed to see him.
Guthrie was given a Today fur
Tough at the expiration Of which
he will entrain for Camp Grant to
be discharged.
During the major portion Of his
military service Guthrie served as
a telephone operator, later. fol-
lowing motorization of the battery.
