GREEN EASLEY IS KILLED
The people of the Roach locality were made sad by the news received last
night, Dec. 1, by Mr. and Mrs.  Robert  Easley  that  their  son,  Green
Easley, was killed in action, Nov. 10.  The  bereaved  family  have  the
sympathy of all.

His parents are highly respected people and Green was a son of whom  any
parents would be proud. He was loved and esteemed by all and it  grieves
his many friends over Barry county to hear the sad news.

Nobly did he give his life for his county. He had been in active service
the last few months and we are sure his record is more than good, as  he
was always ready and willing to do his part. He was always a  thoughtful
and loving son. Since being in service he did  everything  he  could  to
make things pleasant  for  his  parents.  And  above  all  he  became  a
Christian after landing in France and  wrote  such  helpful  and  cheery
letters to his many friends and loved ones. So  while  we  are  grieving
over his loss it is his gain, but while time rolls on  his  memory  will
linger with us through life.

NOTE: Green was laid to rest in Roach Cemetery
