OJ$IT1 ARY Emma Forrest Henry, daughter of Frank and Mattie Toney, was born Feb. 13, 1892, near Greencastle, Ind. and spent the greater part of her life in or near this community. On December 24, 1906, she was united in marridge to Jamea W. Henry. To this union were born five children, Lorene, who died in infancy, Clifford of Spiceland; Olaud of FortvjUe; Mrs. Irma Irwin of Greenwood and Melvin, a member o^ the Army Air Corps now stationed J at Ardmore Oklahoma. Mrs. Henry became a member of ’j the Clinton Falls Methodist church ! and remained true to her faith until death. Her life is attested by active service in the church and home; while her cheerful friendly disposition won many friends and admirers. She departed this life on Feb. 22. 1944. In addition to her husband and children, she is survived toy four grandchildren, her mother, Mrs. Mattie Toney; two sisters, Mrs. Beulah Scarp. Mrs. Clyde Carrington and one brother, Andrew Toney all of whom live near this city. She will be missed by many other relatives and by many friends. I cannot say and will not say That she is dead, she is just awaj. With a cherry smile and a wave of her ban<j She has wandered into an unknown

proved as compared to the service rendered back in World War I. . .
and it was ’’tops,” then.
“While in France, and in the line, I received countless treats from the Red Cross. In the Army of occupation I again received the name Red Cross service. They also planned parties, shows, sight-seeing trips, f^nd all was given free. Never did give the Red Cross a dini" for the treats
and service rendered to me.
“But the big things they did for me was while I was a prisoner of war, and, later, in the hospital. This service itemized, was as follows: “Sixty-four cans of food; twentyseven pounds of food; thirty-six issues of tobacco, candy, and gum; fortyone pounds of bread and hardtack thirty items of clothing; bed clothing; toilet set; eating utensils. “n addition, it was Red Cross that pdovided a cemetery with stone grave racks free shows, chapel services, books, games, music by a twentyeight piece band, and, last, but not least, it was again Red Cross that provided cemetery With stone grave markers for every prisoner who died
ip our camp.
‘T had been captured on October 9, 1918, t was eighteen days before I contacted the Red Cross. We were hungry, dirty, even lousy. Arriving at Rastatt Prison, we were at oner fed, given warm baths, and eventually isued all the items • mentioned
aibove.
’’On the ninth of Qeccmber, thi Swiss Red Cross took us by train through Switzerland where we were banqueted and treated loyally. At Geneva we were transferred to American Red Cross trains and taken to Vichy, France. At last, we were free men; but the Red Gross continued its care. “Hospitalized, we had frep shows parties, smokes, and eats; a turkey dinner on both Christmag and New Year’s. On Christmas, there was a party with gifts and refreshments
for all.
“There were 2400 men Ijp ouf prison camp; all received the oapie as I. Five thousand men, In all, were captured by the Germans in the last war and 99% of them got the same as we. Only the few who could not contact the Red Cross suffered, while held as prisonerp of war.’’ Doughboy of World War I.
