Artilleryman at Fort Flagler Writes
To Mrs. Slocum of Lexington
Red Cross Thanking Her
For Splendid Articles
Sent.
Following is a letter received by
Mrs. E. G. Slocum of the Lexington
Red Cross auxiliary from Corporal
Arnold M. Lindholin, Battery F,
63rd Artillery at Fort Flagler. The
young man hails from Taconia and
his letter is filled with appreciation
of the kind deeds performed by the
Red Cross.
Fort Flagler, Saturday the 16th.
Dear Mrs. Slocum, Lexington Ore.,
Battery F 63rd Artillery (cac) of
which I am a member, received with
a hearty welcome, Red Cross knitted
articles, this week.
I was and am a proud possesor of
a grand sweater. On looking it over,
as one eagerly would, lu such an In
stance, I came across a typewritten
slip wth your name written thereon.
Of course it was a ".Mrs." but never
theless many, many thanks.
Perhaps you have wondered many
a time since turning same over to
the Red Cross, whose hands your
long, laborious- work, this piece of
skilled work fell into.
Well it has at last reached its des
tination, Corporal Arnold M. Lind
holin, is my name.
I am Battery clerk, and therefore
had my pick. I picked and sure drew
lucky.
Not going beyond imagination it
is the finest piece of knitted goods
I have seen yet, and I have seen a
great deal since I have been In the
army.
I haven't as yet worn it as I have
been waiting until I go on pass, so
that I may show my mother what
some people in this large country of
lours will do.
As this is the first letter I have
I written you, I will not endeavor u.
go to far into details, but I will say
this; we are Tacoma boys, enlisted
in the National Guard in April, all
high school students. I, myself, am
graduated. We are not drafts, we
were called into the service July 25,
1917, and have been up to fort all
the while. We expect soon to go to
France.
Please write me, as I will be glad
to hear from you at any time .and also
know that the one who knitted this
sweater I am wearing actually knows
where it has gone to, write real soon.
Yours truly,
ARNOLD XINHOLM.

HENRY SCHWARZ, Proprietor
Fritz Rader of Long Creek shot E.
E. McCue Wednesday afternoon at
about eight miles north of Long
Creek. Rader used a 32-calibre au
tomatic revolver, sending one bullet
through McCue's head and three thru
the stomach. At nine o'clock Thurs
day morning the Eagle received a
phone that McCue was still alive but
that his chances for recovery were
very slight.
Details are lacking, but it seems
that the shooting was a result of a
quarrel. After the shooting Rader
went to the Caverhill place and told
them what he had done and that they
had better phone for Sheriff Hmvnll
as he did not care to go with a deputy.
bnerirr Howell left for Long Creek
horseback, Wednesday night and
Thursday morning Rader came to
Long Creek.
Just how the shooting occurred Is
not known, but it seems that Rader,
accompaniel by Frank Hale went to
the McCue cabin. They entered the
cabin, Hale thinking that a row was
brewing went outside. He said he
heard scuffling and re-entered the ca
bin. He told McCue that he would
take Rader out, when the shooting
took place.
McCue was a man about 45 years
old. He has a wife and four child
ren, who are now at the Kemp Hard
istry place in the Trout creek country
where McCue had Ffed Nickles' place
rented. About three weeks ago Mc
Cue took his horses which he had in
Silvies over to the Johnson place
which he had leased -from Rader. H
seems that Rader and McCue had had
more or less misunderstanding over
the terms of the lease and the mat
ter had been the subjet of prior con
troversy, although McCue was a man
of a peaceful reputation. Blue
Mountain Eagle.
Later reports Indicate that Mr.
McCue died from wounds inflicted. '
The happiest man in Portland a
few days ago was Mack M. Miller,
who Is going to France.
Miller was not 21 on war registra
tion day, but because he thought he
would get into the war more quickly
that way he registered for the selec
tive draft up . in Morrow County,
where he was driving an automobile
stage. He told the exemption board
he was 21 and a class 1-A man.
When after six months' waiting he
hadn't been called and found he was
barred from volunteering he told the
exemption board the truth about his
age. Meantime he had reached 21,
and the board would not excuse him.
He haunted the offices, pleading
for a chance to fight. If the army
was barred to him, he wanted to go
into the navy.
Last week the board gave him a
note to the navy recruiting office in
Portland saying that If he enlisted In
five days It would waive claims to
him.
At the navy recruiting office he
found a waiting list of more than a
100 men ahead of him. He couldn't
enlist in five days. He was doubtfui
if the navy could take him In less
than five weeks.
Then Miller read about the 37th
Engineers, electrical and mechanical,
which Is being recruited at 523 Beck
building for service in France. He
laid his troubles before Lieutenant
Victor H. Braunig, in charge of re
cruiting for the 37th In Portland.
Because Miller Is an expert In gas
engines, the 37th has a place for him.
Lieutenant Braunig immediately tel
egraphed the exemption board - in
Morrow and secured the boy's release.
He will be enlisted at once and will
go to Fort Meyer, Va for training.
Within a few weeks he will be "over
there." Soldier's News Letter.
