HINTON BOY DIES IN FRANCE 

On Nov. 24 Mrs. Epta Gilum of near Hinton received a 
telegram announcing the death of her son, Jesse V. Gilum, 
who went from here to Camp Travis and from there to France 
with the 112th Infantry. 

Last week, Miss Area received a communication from the Red 
Cross Home Service Department, asking her to make inquries 
concerning Mrs. Gilum, as her son had written the Home 
Service headquarters that he was worried because his mother 
was not receiving his allotment. Miss Area wrote Mrs. 
Gilum, as she could not reach her by phone, and this week 
received an answer. Mrs. Gilum wrote thanking the Home 
Service department for their help and answering their 
questions. To this letter was added a postscript saying 
that she had just received a telegram informing her of the 
death of her son in France. 

Mrs. Gilum will receive, we are informed, the delayed 
allotment money, the $10,000 insurance made out in her 
name, in allotments, and two bonds of the Second Liberty 
Loan, which her son had bought.
