Some of you noticed a few weeks
ago an item in our county papers, Civ
ing a report from the Adjutant of
those killed and wounded from Iron
County. Most of US noticed that the
report was far from correct. The
way to get a correct report will be
for us to obtain an accurate record of
the services of each soldier who en-
tered service. The State of Miss ouri
has asked me to take charge of that
for this county and send the filed out
blanks to Jefferson City, and Mr..
Arthur Huff, our Clerk, is collecting
the same reports for a record to be
kept in. this county. We will cooper
ate with each other in securing these
reports. But the men and their fam
lilies can make this thing possible by
filling out these blanks at once and
sending them in. If you do not know
how, get some one to help you,
The soldiers discharge papers will
largely help in filling them out. Re-
member that while you have made
history, the work of the historian
is also important, and right now is the
time for us to see that a correct ae-
count is made of the deeds OF oui
people. / have tried to keep all
the reports which have appeared in
this column from week to week. ]
am going to print below a list of the
killed and wounded as l have found
an accoont OF them. / want you te
supplement it by telling me Of any
others you know who were killed or
wounded, and together we can get up
a report which will be much more &C.
curate than the one sent us by the
Adjutant.
