up by Private Thomas G. Jones, an
American. After taking his buddy to
safety, Jones disappeared. Back in

the Germans and lost all trace of his
rescuer
On May 20, 1921, Haley arrived at
the home of his sweetheart in Canada.
His wedding was to occur at o'clock
and the guests were assembled.
Then Private Jones reappeared. He
had deserted the army at Fort Slocum,
N. Y, because, he said, they were going
to send him back to Germany. He was
suffering from mustard gas burns and
had a wife and two children dependent
upon him.
Haley acted quickly. Telling Jones
to return to his wife and keep quiet,
he informed his fiancee of his intention,
She declined to wait while he served
the term Jones would have to spend
in prison. At the hour Of the wedding
Haley took train for st. Paul, MINI.
He gave himself to the first police
officer he encountered, declaring he
was Private Thomas G. Jones, wanted
for desertion.
Tried by court-martial at Fort Crook,
Neb., Haley was sentenced to dis
honorable discharge and six months in
prison. He had served all but Is days
OF his sentence when authorities, by
checking fingerprints and identified
ton learned of the substitution. The
Legion is petitioning President Harding
to purge the dishonorable discharge
from Haley's record.
