Capt. Arthur Lee of Laurens. Gover
nor Cooper, who is a citizen of
Laurens, has received information
from sources outside of the One llun

Captain Lee and his company for near
ly 24 hours held with their flank ex
posed to a murderous fire, the left of
the line of the Thirtieth Division,
waiting for the Twenty-seventh DIvi
sMon to comec up. This company faced
a position on the Hindenburg line
that the British and Australians had
found most difficult. Caiptain Lee and
his men took their objective and wait
