Parents of Returned Doughboys i
Message to The Reformer Says
They Are in Fine Shape.
! Late yesterday afternoon and during
the evening numerous kilograms came to
Brattleboro relatives of soldiers who ar
rived in Boston yesterday on the trans
| port New Jersey from France, and they
brought to anxious parents great Joy
and relief to know that their sons had
returned safely from the scenes of the
terrible strife in Europe
| All the Brattleboro boys were in the
l0lst ammunition train, in fact $50 of
the ,l41 men returning on the New Jer-
sey were in that organization. Some
casuals We're at the army school at
Beaume, France, and were unable to come
home. but whether there were Brattle-
boro boys among them is not known here
at present.
A telegram from Boston to The Re
former states that the cases of diphtheria
on the New Jersey were confined to the
crew and that none of the soldiers were
AFFECTED.
4 visit to Camp Devens last evening
after the arrival of the Vermont boys
found them on their way to the delousing
plant, and today they moved to the bar
tracks. The boys were in fine shape.
All the boys were glad of the welcome
which was given them by Vermonters
down the harbor and expressed gratitude
for it, The debarkmg at the dock was
done as quickly with each contingent as
any since the Nermonters began arriving
home.
The l0lst ammunition train was cited
along with the division citations for
bravery and has in addition to these
seven French citations.
Tomorrow night the Vermonters will
be entertained by the l0lst ammunition
train auxiliary at the cadet armory.
Relatives of the boys are asked to be
, present.
