Then, throt of those unaccountable mistakes made by war department, Mrs. Kelly of Crown street received a telegram stating that her son had been killed, thus adding to the confusion. The families were enlightened, however, and it was learned that William Kelly of High street was the vietim of the fortunate occurrence. Many of the friends of the boys did not know the truth of the matter for some time. A short time after the happening recounted above, William Kelly of Crown street came home a fur- lough.
