. LAST MAN TO GIVE LIFE IN WAR " CLAIMED AS BALTIMORE HERO Speciul Dispateh to The Star, BALTIMORE. November 1.—An- nouncement that in France a move- ment is on foot to erect a monu- ment to the memory of the last man of the allied armies who gave on the field of battle in the world war has aroused consid- erable interest in this city, for Baltimore ¢laims the honor for one of her sons. Private Henry N. Gunther, 3011 Lastern avenue, a member of the his life o'clock on the morning of Novem- ber 11, 1918, and it is maintained that Gunther's life was the last to be given in the struggle for de- mocracy. Karl Singewald, secretary of the war record commission in Mary- and, stated that as soon as ofScial | notidcation of the plan has been received he will forward to the War_Department_in Washington the full record of Gunther's par- ticipation in the war, so that Amer- ica's claim may be properly made. Baltimore feels confident that to it will be attached the coveted } glory and the name of Henry N. sons and her husband in the war, and who comes as representative of the British people to lay a wreath on the tomb of the unidentified American sol- dier in Arlington cemetery on Armis- tice day. The Philadelphia lady will present to Mrs. McCudden, in the name of the Philadeiphia chapter, a monster bouquet of white carnations, which s the official flower of the war mother. It is understood that both ladies will remain in Montreal only a short time before proceeding to Washington. Number 357 is regarded as a lucky namber by the japanese because chil- dren are presented at Shinto shrines on their third, fifth and seventh birth- days. Gunther will not only be sacred in the adnals of local history, but that it will take its place among the immortals of the world. 313th Tnfantry, was killed in ac- ' tion just a few moments before the signing of the armistice at 11 OLDEST LIVING WEARER OF V.
