The following letter from France* addressed to Miss Arrow* Gerrald, a sister of the late Corporal Talmadge Gerrald, explains the circumstances under which young Gerrald gave up his life while trying to save a comrade from the bullets of German snipers: France, Sept. 7, 1918. Miss Arrena Gerrald, Galivants Ferry, S. C. My dear Miss Gerrald, Your letter of July 22 just received and am more than glad to furnish any information available concerning your brother, Talmage. I was assigned to this organization before sailing from the States and was closely associated with him and his work during the whole time until his death. After the capture of Cantigny and while our troops were holding the line, one of the members of Corporal Gerrald's squad was badly wounded and had crawled into a shell hole in front of our trenches. The ground was swept, by enemy machine guns and German snipers were trying their best to kill the wounded man. Talmage only said. "I am going out there to get that man," crawled out of the trench and was gone. He never came ba lc, and his men found his body pierced by a machine gun bullet which had evidently done its work quickly and [without causing suffering to the victim. He was buried on the field where C l vt ? luunu. Namely, a low Hundred yards north of Cantigny. This town is near Montdidicr which can easily bo found on all maps. Since the recent allied offensive this territory has all been retaken by French ami Americans, so that later on more detailed information as to the location of his grave may be available. While your brother was not privileged to stay with us to the end, you may be sure that his life was not given in vain, for the boys still live and fight for, and in his memory. Sincerely yours, Lt.
