Plainville celebrated the Fourth of July on Monday and on that day re- called the vounger boys who fought in the recent war. Monday was likewise a day of memory for Mrs. Harriet Barnes of Broad street for it was then that she reccived an grmy certificate of honor acclaiming her son, Francis, who was killed in April, 1918. At the same time she received a letter of condolence and sympathy from President Wilson. “Private Francis Barnes, Company ¥, 1024 U. S. Infantry, died with honor in the service of his country while fighting in France on April 20, 1918, the certificate reads. It was signed by I. Erwin, adjutant gen- eral. The president’s letter was writ- ten on ‘neat linen with the White House insignia. Some day in the near future, Mrs. Barnes hopes to have the body of her son brought back to Plainville. The young man was but 18 years of age when he sailed for France and he made the statement that he would come back some day. His last let- ter, found on his body after his death, expressed a desire for “just one little spot in old Plainville.” Be- cause of these facts his mother de- sires his body. although she realizes that many families will not have their dead returned to this country. Barnes was the first soldier from Plainville to die in the world war. It was in April that the company took up their position at Seicheprey and on the 20th of that month Barnes voluntereed to take a sick chum's place on runner’s duty. It was while filling his chum’'s place that he was killed. His dead body was found and reportéd by Douglas Hopkins, also a local boy but a member of Companry D from Bristol. The body of Sergeant Leon Rob- erts has several times been reported on its way home. He died just be- fore his company was ready to sail for this country after the signing of the armistice. The Brock-Barnes post of the Am- erican Legion will arrange for mili- tary funerals and highest honors when the bodies do arrive. Houses Near Completion.
