BAMBERG MEN CALLED TO DEFEND NATION'S HONOR.:
Who Will Answer the Summons Under Selective Draft,
k First 366 Bamberg Men Who Will Appear
f Before the Exemption Board.
The draft of the national army to wage war 011 Germany
was made in Washington, last Friday. Saturday
morning the numbers of most of those drafted were published
in the daily newspapers. The official lists have
1 ' 1 1 r? .1 j 1 3 1 i.
not yet Deen received oy me namoerg county uuaru, uui
is expected in a day or two. The following list of 366
Bamberg men who will comprise the 44first draft" was
compiled by The Herald from published lists. The list
here published is not official, and there may be some errors,
but we have used every effort to secure the list from the
most reliable sources. There appears to have been considerable
confusion in transmission of the numbers, as various
lists published are at slight variance, but this list is
certainly approximately correct. Several numbers are
not included in the list, and these numbers may change the
position of some of the numbers here listed, but the change
will be slight.
It is understood that drafted men will be notified by mail
to appear before the exemption board for examination on
a certain date, not yet set. At the proper time, they will
be given ample opportunity to present reasons, if any, for
exemption.
k? One hundred and eighty-three men will be required or
*... Bamberg county. It is estimated by the war department
^ that this number will be secured from the first 366 numbers
drawn. If, however, the required number cannot be
secured, after exemptions are made, from these 366, other
numbers will be called in the order in which they were
drawn. An unofficial list of all remaining numbers, after
the first 366, in the order they were drawn in Washington,
is published on another page of The Herald today.
Of course a great deal of interest is manifested in the
drafting. This is one occasion when everybody is on an
equality. Rich and poor, white and black, are alike drawn
in the great lottery, and the same regulations apply to
everybody. The same exemptions apply to all.
The Herald has been besieged with inquiries as to the
men drafted for the new national army, and while the exact
order in which all registered men will be called cannot be
stated, until the official lists are received, the lists published
give the approximate correct order.
