Want Our Dead Brought
Home
Thousands of persons in North Carolina are interested in the
proposition to bring home the remains of the Tar Heel boys buried in foreign
countries.
Attorney General James S. Manning, whose son died in France,
is anxious to have the body brought home. On account of his efforts the North
Carolina senators have been very active in getting the war department to take
up the matter, and get some fixed policy.
Senator Overman’s office was notified today that the
secretary of the treasury had instructed the public health service to take over
Kenilworth Inn for a “general hospital.”
The understanding is that if the government likes the proposition,
it will purchase the property.
