C., ormer corporal of the 118th infantry 'hirtieth division, stood before an im ressive military assemblage at Camp ackson today while Major Gen. eorge W. Read, commander of - the ;amp, pinned the highest military ecoration of the nation on his breast, he coveted congressional medal of onor, for heroism beyond the line f duty while serving in embat'led 'ranee. The usual ceremonies were 'one through with the presentation. Imbeded in the cold formalism of e official order designating yo-.mg illepegue are the colorful elements f daring and intrepility beyond the ne of duty. While in action with he Germans at the village of Vaux nbtgny, France, Oct. 1 , 1918, Ville egue, with two companions was or ered through the village for scout uLy. The three were met with strong nemy resistance from machine gun re which killed one of Villepugue's ompanions and wounded the other. Jndismaped and alone he advanced naided, his platoon being five hun red yards in the rear, through con inued and heavy machine gun fire ntil he encountered four of the en my in a dugout whom he killed with hand grenade. Crawling one hun red and fifty yards further, he lo ated a machine gun nest, located it n(1 killed four and captured six of he enemy. In addition he captured wo light machine guns. Shortly af er being joined by his platoon he as severely wounded in the arm. Tonight Villepegue was the guest f honor at a banquet at a local hotel endered by two score of his Camden riends. ---0 RESOLUTION OF CONDOLENCE Whereas Almighty God in His In inite Wisdom has seen fit to remove rom our midst Mr. Samuel G.
