II was ail in vain that sen nil
American runnirs had ateinpted to
pass; the cordon of encircling Ger
mans and carry to the American lines
Ihe news that the Lost Ualalion was
surrounded and in peril of extinction.
The G e r in a n sh a r p s h o o t e r s
would pick fill' the American couriers
as fast as Ihey li ft the cover of the
precarious shell or that shielded the
liiindjiul of survivors from overwhel
ming German besiegers.
"I hesitated to ask other men to
go," said .Major Whittlesey, describ
ing the incident in Portland last. year.
"Man alter man made the attempt
only lo fail, sometimes- before he had
passed J 00 yards from our cover."
For the whole of the. beleagured
.'orce to attempt to rush the German
lines would have meant annihilation
of the unit.
It was In this desperate extremity
hat a (uict man approached Major
Whittlesey and offered to him1'
itleinpt. to reach American lines. He
was Private John Munson.
"You know the danger"" said
Whittlesey, "I do but I think I can
make it: I will try," said John Mun
10,11 quietly.
And John Munson, Ihe hero who
'allied the message to Ihe American
oniniander and brought relief to the
Lost Ilatallion, died alone and neg
ected in a New York hospital recenl
y. liy Ihe mere chance thai his em
'ciated body with a tag telling his
lame was found on a slab in the city
morque Munson was saved from being
uiried in the potters field. Friend

ast stages of tuberculosis, he had
ust enough strength to drag himself
o the hospital. Pawn tickets w

icalion tag.
We didn't do right by John Ahm

George Cochran was brought
from lone Wednesday evening by
Sheriff McDulfee charged with boot
legging. In Judge Cornett'9 court
Thursday morning he entered a plea
of guilty and was assessed the us
ual line of $250.00.
The young man said he had been
acting as sort of an agent for some
moonshiners and that the profit he
made out of the business flid not
nearly justify the chances he took,
which seems to be true with about
90 per cent of the boys who mix up
in the traffic and then get caught. .

The attendance was better than was
anticipated by the committee there
beig considerable disappointment
over the (late selected by the Chau

year ago that the meeting should be
held here in June rather than any
later date which would bring it into
the busy harvest season.
While ,the committee has not yet
checked up closely on the proceeds
from the sale of tickets it is under

be small and as the Chautauqua com

Ihe deficit the local guarantors wil
probably get off easier than they did
a year ago.
