A MEMORIAL FOR A CRAWFORD COUNTY HERO

Among the names written on Indiana University's Honor Roll in the World War and presented to the University on a bronze tablet with impressive ceremony was the name of Allen Gordon Myers of Alton. He was killed July 21, 1918, near Berzy-lesee, France. He volunteered for service.

The September copy of the Crawford County Democrat for 1921 contains this account: World war Hero Who made Supreme Sacrifice Laid to Rest at Milltown. The body of Norman G. Stonecipher, who was killed in action fighting for his country in France, arrived in Milltown Saturday evening and was interred in the Milltown cemetery Sunday afternoon, Rev. A. J. Oster, pastor of the church, in charge. The obituary read: Norman G. Stonecipher was born April 17, 1894, and was killed in battle of the Argonne Forest October 11, 1918, age 24 years, 5 months and 24 days. He was drafted October 20, 1917. He fought in the battles of Chateau Thierry, St. Mihiel and Argonne Forest in which he was killed. The military funeral was under the auspices of the American Legion of Corydon.

While these are the ones whose lives were lost, yet one can not say how much others suffered, many of whom had their health ruined by exposure.

Herschel Rainforth of Fredonia was captured by the Germans and held a prisoner for a long time. While a captive he was fed on a thin soup made out of cabbage leaves.

Willoughby Wiser of Tower was reported missing. Later he was reported wounded. After about two years he was sent back to the United States.

Henry Knight of Miffiin was wounded. Later he had an operation performed which left him partially disabled for life.

Besides these many more have suffered in the trenche's and on the high seas.
