friend, who waa *o much bttUr thfto

visitor left the ward he called mo a-
side and with teats in hia eyes and
quiverng lips, he told me thnt that
the boy's home village hod been in-
vaded by the enemy, that his two sla-
ters. one a girl of 14 years and the
other 17 years old, had been token by
the Germans, who, no one knew, and
the mother in frantic grrief had watch-
ed those daughters being taken off. A
short time later, she died. Meanwhile
the boy was waltng every day, hop-
in* to hear from mother or sister.
"We had a Swiss orderly speaking
French fluently and in a little while
we wore able to tell the soldier that
his sisters had escaped to Switzer-
land and his mother hnd succumbed
to a heavy cold. Not until he was ful-
ly recovered did he learn the truth
and then only one desire was left in
him, to *ight until the end. He return-
ed to service in the course of ti mi
and in a letter which I have he speaks
of twice being dccorated for bravery
and being cited in the Orders of the
Day."
