NEWS OF CURRENT EVENTS Incidents Gathered From All Parts of the Country. Kings Mountain Boy Was Wounded While Guarding a Hospital Some where in France. From The Herald: In a letter from a government hos pital in New Jersey to Mr. E. J. Elliott of East Kings Mountain the ews is conveyed that Mr. Elliott's son, Lee, was on guard at the Ameri can Hospital somewhere in France recently bombed by the Germans and in the explosion was paralyzed in the left side and rendered deaf. He was brought back home to the New Jersey hospital for treatment and will be sent home as soon as he is able to come. The doctor writes Mr. Elliott that he doesn't think he will ever regain the use of his paralyzed side. Lee Elliott was among the vol unteers going from here during last spring. While we all regret that one of our townsmen should be a vic tim of the Germans we are glad that our boys have the stuff in them to do their bit.
