cal Seminary. Professor Riggan is

a strong addition to the teaching force

A large real estate deal took place
in Louisa Saturday when Mr.. and Mrs.
A NJ. Campbell sold their property TO
E, Il. Shannon The deal includes the
handsome brick residence on Main-st..
the cottage facing on Perry-st,, and
a small tenant house in the north side
of town. The price has been various
ly reported az S15,OO0 to $4,000.
This means that Mr.. and Mrs Camp
bell and soR win locate elsewhere, a
fact very much deplored by the peo-
pie of Louisa They are excellent peo-
pie and this community suffers a real
loss by their removal.
Mr.. Camphe7l's business is so ar
ranged that he could be at home here
only occasionally, and he expects to be
able now to become more pleasantly
located in this respect, 1t is said Ash
land and Huntington are being con-
sidered for a location, but no decision
has been announced.
Possession is to be given to the pur-
chaser by April l. We bave not learn
ed what Mr.. Shannon's intentions are
as to the property.

81 stretcher and carried Wilkinson to
the nearest surgeon, after having fas-
| tened the bleeding arteries with their
first aid equipment. Wilkinson conn
planned that the large toe on his. re-
naming foot was giving him a lot of
Pain. He was also wounded in one
arm, but he sat upright in the stretch
er as they carried him and took off
the shoe, which revealed the fact that
a small piece of shell had gone through
the shoe and cut Off his toe. He asked
for cigarette and gave no evidence
of the suffering that must have been
his. Price did not get back to work
at a gun until noon that day.
He says when battle ended or
moved beyond their range the boys of
his bunch usually started at once on
foot for the front lines to see the re-
suits. He describes some of these
scenes as horrible The dead were
lying thick at many places. Shell holes
of all sizes made travelling difficult.
Towns were reduced, to absolute
wreckage. He went into a dug-out
built and occupied by the Huns for
four years in which there was piano,
fine furniture, regular BEDS and every
thing fine.
Price says before the Americans got
into the fight in full swing the French
would rest after making gain, some
times taking a week off, when many
of the men would celebrate by getting
drunk. The Americans changed all
this. They never stopped and they did
not move any way except forward
They didn't get drunk and they gave
the Huns more than they could stand
up to, thus winning the war a year
sooner than otherwise it would have
been done. Price says the French are
all right. but they are too slow for the
American pace. He is glad to get back,
like all the rest, and says he has had
enough excitement to satisfy him for
the rest Of his life He has II months
of his three years enlistment yet to
serve AS stated last week. he is
son OF Mr.. and Mrs. w. B. Hun, OF
Louisa.
