LIEUT HUGHES LOSES LIFE ON BATTLEFIELD OF FRANCE Following is a copy of a letter sent " Mr J A Hughes of Howe Texas, stat? | ing the death of his son Hayes who *; lost his life on the battlefields in France. Mrs. Hughes sent this letter to her aunt Mrs. Edie George who ask us to " | publish so relatives and friends may j I know of her neices greaf sorrow, j Before marriage Mrs. Hughes was: 9 1 ! Miss Patsy Hayes and resided a few ( miles above Lexington. She is a; daughter of the late Boliver and Lou : isa Haves and has a host of relative:! and friends in and around Lexington who extend their greatest sympathy! to the heart stricken parents and famj ily in the bereftment of their heroic i ? son who gave his life for such a great j cause. France June 24 1918 i Mr. J. A. Hughes Howe; Texas. Dear Mr. Hughes: I want to write you J o give the details attending the death of your son 2nd. Lieut. James H. Hughes who was serving in my company at the time o his death. The company was in support about two kilometers from the german front lines. About 3 a. m. June 7th, we received a heavy bombardment of . gas ana high explosive shells. Hughes platoon was occupying a small wood in advance of rest of the company. In case of gas concentration in the wood his orders were to take up another position on ' high ground which would be free of gas. He was preparing to move out with his platoon when he returned to his dugout with his Caison agent to get Something he had forgotten. Both of course were wearing gas masks. When he got to the entrance he heard a shell coming and dived to the ground for safety. The shell exploded quite; |close. Hughes was not hit but' the! | Caison Agent was mortally wouniefd (Hughes told me this about 15 mift-r utdfc later.) He went to Hulsey's asr sisfance and carried him to the shel-f ter df his own dugoat where he ad ! ministered first aid. To do this he removed his masi: so that: he could work better in tl*e iforkaess. Of course he knew the danger of removing his gsa* mask. He disregarded the danger to save a man's life. No higher exaJHflle of courage and selfsacrifice has; been set I a?r. sure in the A. E. FL. Some hours lat<&- he was evacuated to fee hospital where I he passed awa??. I talked to Hirtr fer somtime after H*? caihe with Sis pla-|; toon to the new .position Where-Iihasfiimoved with the. rust of the corapanyj He seemed griev?? at fee deadfei- of j : Hulsey (his Caisorc agent) but cAh^rvl; - V wise well as usuaL You see it jometime for the gas to take efSeet. '} fie did not say anything: about havingf ;aken off his mask and I was surpris-j id about two hours later when a iMe?.-'; enger came to say* 4e bad gore fS ;he hospital. I regarded him as' my most valuable officer. Personally- he was ore of ;he most attractive raasn I have ever, net. If anything casr be of consola-I ;on to you and to Mis: 'Hughes it' should be that he died ci the noblest' ;ause and in the noblest: manner pos-j ;ible. As a soldier an officer and a! gentleman he was alnrve repnach. His effects will be foiwarded" to ytu > from the hospital and from the ef-: fects hepot here. His grave is in the | cemetery at Cempanis Separtme^t of * Oise France. If I can be of any service to you J over here I beg you to cail o^r me.
