Moiling Mies in France," you say; ''The first young man from Win-ston-Salem to lay down his life for his country was fiufu S. At kins of Melews street. II') was killed in action about six mortiis ago." This was an error. Kufus S. Atkins was, all his life, a Surry boy. He was born and brought up In Hurry, and made his home in Surry all his life until the day of Ms enlistment. It Is true he enlisted In Winston Salem, but the records in the ottice of the Army Hecruiting Station in Win ston Salem show that he enlisted from Surry county, and not from Forsyth. The Winston Salem paers, in giving accounts of his death last February, claim that lie was from Winston Salem. I called, by letter and in per son, the attention of the Sentinel to the mistake, but no correction waa forthcoming in its columns. f.
