FULLER DETAINLS OF
DEATH OF ROWDY GENTRY

Belgium, Dec. 18th, 1918.
Mr., A. J, Gentry,
Greeneville, Tenn,
Dear Sir
Doubtless before this you have re-
ceived full particulars concerning the
death of your son, Lieut.. Rowdy
Gentry, November 1st, at the Evacu-
alton Hospital, after he was wund-
ed in the Scheldt battle October 31st.
/ will write a word in addition be-
cause ever since l joined the regi-
ment in August, l have been more or
less closely connected with your son
and came to know him very well,
most of the time being in the same
mess with him.
remember seeing him in the hard
eight-day fight in the Argonne, where
he received a sickness for awhile
through gas, but where he fought so
well he was recommended for pro-
motion from the First Lieutenant.
| recall with pleasure, as we were
bivouched at Oostroosbeke, October
10Th, just before we made our night
march to Waereghem, where our
fight began the 31st, he came to the
medical tent where | was and show
ing the silver bars that were marks of
promotion. The doctors insisted that
they pin them on his shoulders, which
they did to his evident satisfaction.
/ did not see him after he was
wounded, but about two weeks ago
| stood by his grave in the we'll kept
cemetery at Staden, with two of the
officers who knew and loved him, and
we spoke of the days that were so re-
Gently passed when he was with US.
Though not inclined to be demon
strative, Rowdy Gentry was naturally
lovable-a true friend, but most of
all | know you remember with pride,
true soldier who gave his life for
his country and the world.
May Gods blessings be yours in
your sorrow.
Sincerely,
ALEXANDER LEWIS.

VISIONS
BY Mrs. p. Culhane.

| never watch the sun set, adown the
western skies,
But that within its wonderness | see
my Mothers eyes;
[ never hear the west wind sob softly
in the trees,
But that there comes her broken call,
far Ger the distant seas.
[ never watch the dim stars, but that
my heart would go
Away and back to olden lands, and
dreams of long ago.
A rover of the wide world, while yet
my heart was young,
The sea came whispering to me, in
well-beloved tongue;
And oh! the promise she held, Of
golden lands agleem;
They chung around my girlhood heart,
and filled my eyes with dreams.
Still wild unrest kept Turing me, till
meath the stars | swore
That | would leave old Erin's shore
fOrever-eVermore.
And now watch the sun set, adown
the western skies,
And glimpse within its wonderness
my Mothers plading eyes;
And yet | hear the west wind sob
softly in the trees,
That vainly cloaks, her broken call
far or the distant seas;
And never shine the dim stars, but
that my heart would 60
Away, and back to her side, and
dream of long ago.

CHUCKEY

On January 21st the spirit OF j.
w. Stanton winged its flight from
earth to heaven. For the past six
months he had been giving battle.
1t changed the morn Of laughter"
into a might of tears" Mr.. Stan
ton was 81 years of age. He Joined
the Baptist church at an early age,
and proved to be true and faith
full member until God called him.
He was married to Miss Genevieve
Maupin, April 14th 1906. They
spent the larger part of their married
life in Knoxville. Four years ago
Mr.. and Mrs. Stanton moved to their
farm at Peterstown, where they had
a host of friends. He always met
his friends with smile and kind
word. He always looked on the
brighter side of things, for his life
was real and worth living. During
his long sickness he never complain
ed. His last words to his heart
broken wife were: II hate to leave
you here alone, but ] will be waiting
for you at the Golden Gate" Our
dear one has gone. But, oh, alright
er home awaits him. 1t is very hard
to part with loved ones, but for some
reason unknown to us, they are taken
away. He was always ready and
willing to lend helping hand to his
friends in any way he thought best.
He will be greatly missed by his many
friends and especially by his lonely
wife, whoewas so carefully cared for
by his kind and loving acts. She
has our deepest sympathy. May she
look on the bright side and remem-
Der her loss is his gain; look forward
to the day when they meet and sing
around the throne of God. She will
then not have to sit by, his side and
see hi msuffer such agony and pain
as was his last days with ner. Fu-
neral services were conducted by
Rev. Carter, after which her remains
were laid to rest in the Pleasant Vale
cemetery, there to rest until the
great and final day.
There is quite lot of sickness in
our community.
The flu seems to be on the decline.
Mrs. w. L. Davis is very ill at this
writing. We wish her speedy re-
covery.
Mrs. ]. w. Stanton spent last week
with her friend, Mrs. E. Hall.
In spite of the flu, the Pleasant
Vale Sunday school missed only four
Sundays. It has now opened uI
again. We hope the flu will soor
die out and every one will come out
to Sunday school again. S. E. H.

New Arrnistice
Stops Offensive Of
Hun In Poland

PARIS, Feb, 1S.-Marshal Foch
this afternoon informed the supreme
council of the acceptance by the
Germans of the conditions for a re-
newal of the armistice.
Two notes were handed to Marshal
Foch by Matthias Erzberger when the
renewal of the armistice was taken
up at Treves. One note concerned
the employment of the German mer-
camille marine for various purposes
while the other was longer and con-
tanned several requests, including the
release of German prisoners and the
maintenance of the economic inter-
course between Germany and occu-
pied German territories.
TREVES, Feb. 18.--Under the
new terms for the renewal of the ar
mistice, as presented to the Germans
by Marshal Foch, Germany must
abandon all offensive movement
against the Poles and also must pro-
hibit her troops from crossing the
Russian frontier at certain line.
The line of demarcation between
Germany and Poland is outlined as
follows: East of Grosser Neudorf
Southeast of Bromberg), south of
Labischin, south of Scholdzisen
north to Exin, southwest of Brom-
berg), south of Sam, north to Gar
nickau least of Kreuz), west to Birn
baum and Bentschen (west of Posen)
Wollstein, LISA and north of Weirn-
STOW and thence along the frontier
between Silesia and Poland. (This
line of demarcation gives to Poland
considerable part of German Po-
SEM.
1t was provided by the allied terms
that the armistice must be renewed
for an indeterminate period with a
fixed delay of three days for the de-
nunciation of it. The old terms of
the armistice are to be carried out
completely by Germany.
The German delegates reached
Treves Friday morning and Marshal
Foch arrived at noon The first dis
cussion was at 3 o'clock Friday aft
ernoon and was begun by Marshal
Foch. Matthias Erzberge spoke first
FOR the Germans.
