REPORTED KILLED Mandan, N. D., July 2.—Harry L. Kidd, private Company E, 139th di- vision, during the World War, a Mandan boy, mourned as dead, may be alive. The Seattle Star says that he is alive. His father and mother, Mr, and Mrs. Charles Kidd of Man- dan, are anxiously awaiting more news from Seattle. Harry Kidd was killed in action while acting as a runner, according to War Department records. Clem Hoard of Mandan is said to have witnessed his death. Two other ser- vice men wrote home of his death. They may have been wrong. So were the members of Harry L.

On September 26, 1918, Kidd was 139th infantry of the Argonne, A he was reported mi: Nothing further heard until a comrade told his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Kidd of Mandan, N. D., that their son had been seen going across a zone of fire; that a shell had burst near him and that then he had disappeared. Later, the United States officially certified him as dead, and, in Feb- ruary, 1919, started paying his pa- rents $57.50 a month on his insurance policy. Mother Never Would Believe Son Was Dead Mrs. Kidd, however, never accept- ed the fact of her son’s death in ac- tion, and insisted that he is alive. Nothing to support this belief ever was found until Monday, June 16, of this year. On the morning of that day a man appeared at the home of the Turners, uncle and aunt of the Kidd boys, on W. Sist St. The house is leased to a family named Johnson, the Turners being at Lake Sammamish for the summer, The man said: “I’m Harry Kidd. My uncle and aunt used to live here.” The Jotinsons questioned him. He gave details of family history and appeared to be genuine in his state- ments. He was, however, very nerv- ous. “You know,” he told the Johnsons, “Tm supposed to be killed, but I'm not: I’ve been in prison for four years. I’ve got several bullets still in me, from the war. Some of them are bothering me and I’m going to] be operated on.” Addresses He Left Do Not Check Up After referring to his brother, George, the supposed Harry Kidd told the Johnsons he would be back Wednesday evening, June 18. He told them that if he did not show up he could be found at 2018 Sixth avenue, or by calling ELiot-2836, He also said that he might be in a hos- pital and that Dr. N, A. Johnson, of the Cobb building was to operate on him. The house at 2018 Sixth Ave. has been vacant ‘for six weeks; a Japa- nese lives:at the EL iot phone num- ay or two later ing. ber; Dr. Johnson says he never | SQUUUeuenneetneuenancuccnanceunegan: has heard of the man, nor has he! 3 performed such an operation lately. !S George Kidd, the brother, waited Wednesday evening for his supposed missing brother to show up. Harry however, never did. Since then all trace of him has been lost. Description Said to Fit Exactly The description given by the Joln- sons tallies exactly. er, even to peculiar marks and tem- perament. Records of the Swedish hospital, to which the supposed Harry told} show | the Johnsons he was going, that no such operation as he de- scribed hud been performed there.
