TthuIa Woman Given
Details Of Son S Death
By Fellow Officer

On Wednesday, August IS, MrA
Henry w. Shurlds of Tchula, Miss,
learned the details of how hef
son Major Henry w. Shurlds, Jr.,
was killed in France last August 10.
During heavy downpour of rain
last Wednesday afternoon, Mrs.
Shurlds invited First 1t. Harry Krie
of the Greenwood Air Base and .
fellow officer to sit on the porch Of
her home until the rain quit. In the
ensuing conversation, it was disclos-
ed that the two officers had been
overseas and that 1t. Krig had been
in the Ninth Air Force. When Mrs.
Shurlds told him her sons name,
the officer jumped to his feet with
the exclamation Not Major
Shurlds"! After viewing her sons
pictures in the hall, 1t. Krig un-
folded the following incidents rela-
tive to the death of Major Shurlds
over France nearly year ago.
"The Ninth Air Force Group to
which Major Shurlds and he were
attached was stationed first at Ash
ford-Kent, England. On a mission
over Germany, Major Shurlds' plane
was shot up to such an extent that
he had to bail out in the icy waters
Of the English Channel but was res
cued two or three hours later. From
England they went to Bayeaux.
France and from there to Insigny
with Major Shurlds definitely des-
troying two enemy planes.
Major Shurlds, 1t. Krig, and an
other fighter pilot were sent out on
a straffing mission. Two enemy
planes were encountered and after
lengthy chase, Major Shurlds gave
Krig orders to turn back in order to
have enough gas to make the home
field. After the lieutenant had made
the turn, he glanced back to see
about sixty German planes attack
the two fighter pilots. Major Shurlds
plane exploded in midair with the
other pilot making forced landing
md reaching the home field on foot
in several days. All Of this action
ook place three miles south of the
Seine River close to the town Of
Verneuil-sur-Seing, France.
1t. Krig went on to tell how Ma
jor Shurlds drove the tractor in
clearing sites for the tents and how
he traded cigarettes and gum to the
French in return for chickens which
he cooked for his fellow officers.
1t. Krig formerly of North Darth-
mouth, Mass, had arrived at the
Greenwood Base only a few days
prior to this meeting with Mrs.
Shurlds and had no previous
knowledge of her whereabouts. The
mother joined 1t. Krig in the belief
that God sent him to her home on
that day out of the rain to tell her
of how her son met his death In
France a year ago.

px the Associated Press.

Py the Associated Press.
WITH THE UNITED STATES 9th
ARMY, Mar. 14.-American troops
have discovered a coal mine which
has entrances from both sides OF
the Rhine River, but 1t. Gen. Will
liam H. Simpson says he has no in
tention Of using it as tunnel.
The 84th Division captured the
mine shaft south OF Homberg dur
ing it's dash from the Roer River
The shaft is 300 feet deep and leads
to passageways which are said tx
cross under the river and open or
to shaft on the other side.
However, miners say the Nazis
have planted demolitions In the
mine and have blocked some sections
with steel doors. In any case. ma
chine guns presumably could COM
mand the mine mouth on the other
side of the river.
German miners still working here
say at least 600 persons were evacu-
ated to the east side of the Rhine
through this shaft after American
troops began their sweep to the
river.
They told of a recent fight here
when German patrol from the
east side of the river captured Ger
man miners from the west side. The
boss of the miners slugged a Nazi
ofhcer in the face with his lamp
and the other miners all broke their
lamps and ran.
