TELLS MOTHER
OF SONS DEATH IN ACTION

The Missoula Missoulian prints the
story of what Is considered remark
able case of telepathy
Some months ago Mrs. Chris Frey
who lives in a suburb. awoke from a
deep sleep with a scream,
She told her startled husband that
their son. win. had Just been shot In
the head and killed in battle in
France. Will was serving with the
American army
II was 1880 O'Clock on the morning
OF October T.
Mr.. Frey went to the calendar and
marked the day and hour. So con
vinced was she that her son was
dead that she at once went into
mourning
Friends and neighbors were told OF
the premonition and shown the
marked calendar
In due time the war department
informed Mrs. Frey OF Its regret in
announcing that her son. win, had
been shot in the head and killed. In
France on October 6.
Mrs. Frey collapsed.
A letter from Frey's commander
says he was shot In the head and
killed on the morning of October 4
(not October as the war depart
ment had stated) at 1880 O'Clock.
