RICHMOND ELKS VISIT SPANGLER GRAVE AT BREST

.Member of Local Lodge Writes of Trip to Cemetery ; With Capt. Churchell. . . . . 1 A' pilgrimage by J. Morris Jones, formerly in the automobile business here, and Captain Edwin R. Churchell, a local surgeon serving with the American forces in Prance, to tho grave of Earl Spangler, a Richmond soldier buried at Brest, France, ia described in a letter from Mr. Jones received by the Elks lodge here, of which organization the correspondent is a member. The missive, read at the last meeting of the lodge and which became a part of the official

records of the club, told of how weather conditions had thwarted their

efforts to photograph the grave of tha

late Mr. Spangler.

Mr. Spangler was taken ill whilo aboard a transport bound for France, and died shortly after being removed

from the vessel. Home Within Month , Mr. Jones' communication was dated Kerhnou, France, February 22, 1919, and expressed the belief that he would be in U. S. territory, and possibly in Richmond, within another month. In Bpeaking of the grave, Mr. Jones writes: "Wednesday 'Doc' (Captain Churchell) got a car and took me to Brest and there we found the cemetery and grave where .Earl Spangler is buried. We were going to take some pictures but the weather would not permit, so he is going to do it- some time soon. Earl is buried in a nice cemetery and his grave is in fine condition. We were sure glad to find it so for it is so very good that it was far beyond expectations. It was very hard to believe that we were in reality standing over Earl's grave." Meets "Doc" by Accident In describing the manner in which j

he accosted Captain Churchell in France, Mr. Jones says: "After I had been here one day we had a general inspection and who should the 'Big Cheese' be but Captain (Doc) Churchell. He is in fine health and just the same old 'Doc' " . Mr. Jones informed his brother Elks that he had suffered an attack of pneumonia which had developed complications. These, he declared, could be remedied only by a minor opera-lion.
