Calyx, 1920 (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Calyx, 1920 I feel that it is my duty to go. So he entered the training camp, was commissioned first lieutenant and sailed to France. In the army his devotion to duty, his courage and his manly bearing inspired the confidence of his superiors andgreatly endeared him to his followers. This sense of duty was the impelling motive of his life and the guide of his conduct. It led him from a bed of ease to a field of hardship, from a home of comfort to a camp of privation, from a place of safety to the battlefield, and to death. His love of country, his sense of obligation to it. Was greater than his love of life.' His Alma hiater delights to honor his memory, and' places his name among that galaxy of her sons who have offered up their lives in the faithful discharge of duty, and to his memory we affectionately dedicate this volume.
