badly, and he seemed to be in consid- erable pain. I called two stretcher- bearers for him, and then, after word or two, I had to leave; for the company was already forming for the attack, and had to take charge of my squad. It was not until late in the day that the stretched bearers re- joined us, with the distressing news that John, with two other boys who were hit at the same time, had passed to the great beyond. All this happened on the Sd day of November, and he was hit about a. m. As nearly as I could ascertain he lived about three hours afterward
 After the armistice was signed, and we were in the army of occupation on the Rhine, one of the boys who had been hit at the same time as John (B. F. Taylor was his name), but not fatally, rejoined the company from the hospital, having recovered from his wound; and from talking to him l believe that he was the last person who knew John to see him, although he had passed away before Taylor saw him.
 Taylor told me of seeing John lying on stretcher at the first-aid station; that apparently he had died in peace, for his face was lit up with a smile as though he was only in deep, peace full sleep. He made the supreme sac rifce, but he died with the knowledge that his duty to family, friends and country was dOne-and unsurpassabIy. can testify that when duty called, and even in exploits beyond the line of duty, he was ever more than ready to bear his own share, and someone else's if necessary.
 I have endeavored to give you, as nearly as possible, the correct data which you asked for, If there is any thing else which you wish to know, that I may have omitted, you have only to ask and I will be more than glad to help you in any way I can.
 Yours very sincerely,
