Lt. Stevenson Injured
by Tank, Not Wounded
A letter to the Record from Lieut. Chas. S. Stevenson
corrected the report published in the paper that he had been wounded in France,
the Hickory officer stating that he was injured when a tank tractor ran over
his right foot and leg. He is getting along all right.
Lieutenant Stevenson referred to the record of the 30th
division, gave details of his journeys through France and said he was mighty
glad to have gone over. The thing that the boys are thinking of now, he said,
is “when will we get back?” He has been to Versailles and looked over the
palace where the peace conference is being held at present in a small town in
southern France.
Lieutenant Stevenson says he remembers the good dinner
Hickory and Catawba folks gave the Company when it left here and it is a
pleasant one. He sends good wishes to the people of Hickory, but does not
indicate when he will return home.
