DENMARK BOY IS OITED.
Private James Breed in Receives Official
Recognition.
In the last issue of The Herald the
fact was mentioned that Private
James Breedin, who had been severely
wounded at Chateau Thierry, was
tack in America, and had spent a
short furlough a this home at Denmark.
Since then The Herald has received
a copy of an official citation of
Private Breedin for ditinguished
bravery, and below we give a copy of
the citation:

TELLS OF EXPERIENCES.
j
Luke Bellinger in Midst of Battle
That Broke Hindenburg Line.
| Although he was gassed on Sepi
tember 29th, the date the big drive
which broke the Hindenburg line
started, Lucius S. Bellinger, of this
city, was in the midst of this battle
long enough to see some of the magnificent
fighting of the thirtieth division.
He also witnessed the retreat
of the German army for thirty
miles before mustard gas, mixed
with chlorine and other gasses,
"knocked him out," as he expresses
it. Since Sept. 29th, Mr. Bellinger
has been recuperating from the effects
of German gas.
Mr. Bellinger was one of the first
nine selected men from Bamberg
county. After a farewell meeting
held on Main street, Mr. Bellinger
and the other eight left on the morning
of Sept. 5th for Camp Jackson,
being attached to the 306th engi
neers. On October istn, ne was
transferred to Camp Sevier and attached
to the 105th engineers. He
mained at Sevier until May 18th,
1918. when he was started on his
way to France. His regiment was
first sent to Camp Mills, N. Y., where
they remained for five days, and then
were carried to Montreal, Canada.
Afte- a short stay there the regiment
joined a convoy at Halifax, N.
S., and embarked for Liverpool. Only
a few days were spent at Liverpool
in a rest camp before the boys
were carried to Calais, arriving in
the old French city in June last
year.
Mr. Bellinger and his comrades
were transferred by train from Calais
to the inland, and attached to the
British army, along with the thirtieth
and twenty-seventh divisions, he
being in the famous thirtieth. The
thirtieth is composed of South Carolina,
North Carolina, Tennessee and
District of Columbia men, and the
twenty-se\enth is composed of the
national guard of the State of New
York.
About tbe first weeK in July tne |
American boys were moved up into
Belgium. For strategic reasons the
whereabouts of the division were
kept sercret, and although the folks
at home thought their boys were in
France, about two months were
spent in Belgium, and to keep the
Germans from knowing their whereabouts,
the boj's wrote their letters
ostensibly from France. The occupied
territory of Belgium was so
small that to divulge the fact that
the^ were in Belgium would have
been to give the Germans their exact
location, and this, of course, was
not permissible.
The 105th engineers took up work
at Ypres building "pill boxes," or
gun emplacements, erecting barb
wire entanglements, etc. It may be
explained that this work is exceedingly
dangerous, inasmuch as it is
necessary for the engineers to go
ahead of the infantry, and much of
the work is necessarily done in the
open. Mj*. Bellinger states that his
company worked every night, the
darkness affording some protection.
The engineers were also in charge of
the trench railways, which were used
for transporting relief troops to and
from occupied sectors. Mr. Bellinger's
company remained near Ypres
for two months, and during this
time he witnessed the driving of the
Germans off Kemmel Hill, one of the
Hun strongholds. This occurred in
August, 1918. He was right in this
fight and tells many thrilling incidents
that occurred.
In August he was moved back into
France and stationed near St. Paul.
He saw no active service there, and
was sent to points near Amiens, and
Albert, and then on up to the Hindenburg
line north of St. Quentin at Bellicourt.
There the engineers prepared
the way for the attack that will go
down- in history as the beginning of
the end for the German armies. The
engineers were kept busy opening up
the roads for lines of communication,
filling shell craters, etc.
On September 29th the big drive
was strated. That day witnessed the
breaking of the Hindenburg line. AI

credit for this work,. Marshal Haig a
little later gave full credit to the thirtieth
division, in which there were so
many South Carolina boys, and quite
a large number of Bamberg men. Mr.
Bel linger states that the Americans
were working in connection with the
Australians in leap frog fashion, each
relieving the other as they advanced
their lines.
It was on this memorable day tha'
Mr. Bellinger was "knocked out."
The Germans were employing every
device known to them to stem the
j onrush of the Americans and Austraj
Tans, and gas shells were falling evI
erywhere with the shrapnel and othj
er shells. One of these exploded
near ATr. Bellinger and he was put
| out of commission. Fourteen others
j of his comrades, all of them at that
> place, were also gassed. He was
blinded by the mustard gas and had
to be carried to the rear. He also
received some injury from other
gasses, but it was the mustard gas

How to Get Out of Service.
Sheriff S. G. Ray has received a
commimication from the war department
detailing the manner in which
enlisted or drafted men in the service
overseas may secure discharges
from the service. The secretary of
war states that it is his desire to release
from service all men who, for
reasons of sickness or distress, are
needed at home. It is necessary to
submit proofs of the necessity for
the return of the soldier, and these
proofs may be submitted by some
person other than the soldier
%
himself, but it must be with his consent.
It is also indicated that any
enlisted or drafted man may be sent
home from abroad on furlough for
the same reason. Such requests for
discharge may be sent by letter or
cable and should be sent direct to
the commanding general, American
Expeditionary Forces.
Roll Weevil is Coming.
Mr. C. A. McFaddin. tobacco expert
of Clemson college, was in Bamberg
last week arranging for the
holding of our farm meetings in the
county next Saturday. Mr. McFaddin
was in The Herald office for a
short time Wednesday. He states
that there is^po doubt of the coming
of the cotton boll weevil. Asked if
it was likely that the pest would
damage the cotton crop this year, he
replied that he did not think so. The
weevil was found in two sections, of
this county last fall, but Mr. McFaddin
is of the opinion that the insect
will not have time to spread sufficiently
to do much harm this year. Next
year will probably see the weevil in
this county in large numbers, he said.
Will Open Service Station.
Mr. J. K. Faulkner, of the Faulkner
Electric Service company, announces
that he will soon open an
associate Willard service station in
Bamberg, to be operated in connection
with his present business here.
There is not at present a battery service
station nearer than Orangeturg
or Augusta, and this new service will
be quite a convenience to the car
owners of this section. Since practically
100 per cent, of the cars are
now operated from the storage battery,
the need of such a station is
readily seen, and the fact that Earnberg
is to have one will be interesting
news to the automobile public of
the county and surrounding territory.
Court Again Postponed.
The March term of the court of
general sessions has been postponed
by Judge Mclver, the presiding
judge, upon petition of the local
bar, who represented that the danger
of further spread of the Spanish
influenza is so great that they deem
it wise not to attempt to hold court
at this time. It was left at the discretion
of the presiding judge to set
a date for the holding of the court
o 4- c? r\ m r\ lofnr f im a

[that did the work for him.
After spending some time in the
hospitals in France, he was sent to
the American hospital in England,
and was later sent home in a casual
company, arriving in New York on
December 21 on the White Star liner
Baltic. The rest of the time was
spent in a hospital in Atlanta, where
he received the best of care. A few
days ago he received his discharge
and is now at home.
Mr. Bellinger's injury from gas
was very severe. He lost about thirty
pounds in weight, and has not yet
recovered lr's normal flesh. He has
gained fifteen pounds since arriving
in America, and although he is still
listed as being 35 per cent, disabled,
the doctors say he will regain his
| health. He contributed liberally to
, the cause of democracy, and his
j friends are delighted to have him
i back again.

DISTINGUISHED YISlTOIt.
Mr. C. W. Nash, President Nash Motors
Co., Here Last Week.
Mr. and Mrs. C. \V. Na-h, of Kenosha,
Wisconsin, were visitors in the'
city for a few days last week. They}
were en route to Florida, and stopped j
over here as the guests of Mr. and j
Mrs. Decania Dowling. They were:
accompanied from Charlotte, X. C., j
by Mr. and Mrs. H. Spann Dowling, i
who also spent a few days here. r
Mr. Nash is president of the Nash j
Motors company, one of the largest j
automobile concerns in the world,
I and is himself one of the leading men j
of big business interests in the country.
A fi=h fry was tendered Mr. and;
Mrs. Nash during their stay in Bam- j
berg by Mr. and Mrs. Decania Dowl
ing, tliis being, of course, new to tne
visitors. A Bamberg fish fry is alwas
an enjoyable affair, and this
one was not only novel but was greatly
enjoyed by Mr. and Mrs. Nash. Mr.
and Mrs. E. D. Rainey, Miss Rainey
and Mr. Rhett, of Beaufort, and Mr.
and Mrs. Spann Dowling, of Charlotte,
were present at the fish fry,
as were also a number of prominent
Bamberg gentlemen. .v
Mr. and Mrs: Nash expressed themselves
as being delighted with the

of Bamberg. Mr. Nash is quite a
sportsman, as well as a prominent
manufacturer, and while here enjoyed
some hunting.
Messrs. Decania and Spann Dowling
are the distributers for North and
South Carolina cf the Nash Motors
company, with offices at Charlotte.
Although this business, which is operated
under the firm name of the
Dowling Motor company, has been
> conducted only a few years, it has
met with marked success, and the
people of Bamberg have watched with
no little interest the success of the
Messrs. Dowling in the automobile
field. Being in close business relationship
with Mr. Nash as the'head
of the Nash Motors company, they
secured hi.s promise some time ago to
take a few days off and visit Bamberg.
Mr. Nash is a geqtleman of
most pleasing personality and made i
some warm acquaintances during; his
few days stay here, and promised
that this would not be his last visit
to Babmerg.
PYTHIAN BANQUET HELD.
Grand Officers Visit Bamberg and
Ranks Are Conferred.
Last Monday evening was a notable
occasion in local Pythian circles.
An anniversary celebration
was held, at which the grand chancellor
of South Carolina, the Rev.
Louis Bristow, of Abbeville, and the
grand keeper of records and seal,
Mr. C. D. Brown, of Abbeville, were

repaired to the court house
where a delightful banquet was
served by the U. D. C. chapter.
After the dishes were cleared
away and the cigars were passed,
Chancellor Commander J. C. Guilds,
acting as toastmaster, called upon
the Rev. Geo. P. White to extend a |
welcome to the visiting grand officers.
This was done in a brief, but
very entertaining' talk. Responses
were made by Rev. Mr. Bristow and
Mr. Brown, in which they expressed
their very great pleasure in visiting
the Bamberg lodge. They complimented
the lodge in a very high |
mannqr upon the achievements that
have been made by increasing the
membership of the lodge fifty per
cent, within sixty, days, and both
stated that this was a record unparalleled
in the grand domain.

The Number Eleven.
The number 11 played a very conspicuous
part in the armistice between
the Teutonic allies and the Entente
allies. The armistice became
effective at the eleventh hour of the
eleventh day of the eleventh month.
. Now comes Mr. S. S. Williams, of
Govan, with this one: Look at the
eleventh verse of the eleventh chapter
of the eleventh book of the-Bible and
you will see the downfall of the kaiser
predicted. Well, you had better
get your Bible out and look this up
fnr vmir=plf The verse not only pro
claims the downfall of the kaiser,
but of any monarch who does not remember
the statutes of God. As a
matter of fact, there is a striking
similarity of conditions indicated in
the verse with conditions that prevailed
in Germany.

Friends and relatives of Corporal
Franklin K. Aver, brother of Mr.
F\ C. Ayer, of this city, and Mr.
R. A. Ayer, of BlackviLle, were much v
distressed last week to read in one
of the daily newspapers that he was ^
reported as having dieds of disease * '
in France. Another daily paper cari
ried the report that Corporal Ayer j
had been severely wounded, and still
other papers carried no mention at jfy.
all of this casualty. Members of
the family were asked cencerning
the matter, and The Herald ascertained
that no information whatever
had been received by them of any
i injury to Corporal Ayer, ana it is '
thought likely, inasmuch as the war
department has not notified the family,
that the report may have been
erroneous. The war department at
j Washington has been appealed to for
j information concerning the corporal
and it is sincerely trusted that he
may be found to be safe and well at ' jr|
