men in this western Indiana hamlet of 900 had threatened a "live in” protest if the Air Force failed to use or to sell the houses. Earnest had planned to move

families into the houses, rents and then turn the

over to the Air Force.

The houses were built in the early 1940's for Army personnel at the Wabash River Ordnance works and have been empty for

the past four years.

"It was a case of either using 1 the houses now or letting them

rot until they would be of no use to anyone,'’ Earnest said. While it appears that the Dana businessmen have won round one in their tussle with the government, Earnest said he planned now to apply pressure on Roudebush and the Air Force to hire Dana and Vermillion County residents to do the renovation work on the houses. "We have a terrific relief problem in this county, particularly in Dana. While the presence of the Air Force people will help,

we also feel that our people I should be hired to do work of j getting those houses in shape for occupancy,” Earnest said. CARD OF THANKS I wish to thank Dr. Tennis, Dr. Johnson, Dr. Schauwecker, the nurses, nurse aids, while I was in the Putnam County Hospital. Also I wish to thank my friends and neighbors for flowers, cards and their kindnesses and my relatives for everything. Charles L. Davis

The last two weeks of June, the first week of July, 1863,

residents in numerous Pennsylvania towns, villages, crossroads, farmsteads got bitter doses of what immense numbers of eivilians had been forced to swallow in Kentucky, Missouri, Maryland and the Southern states for more than two years. Armies rode or crept along the highways, spread across farms, pervaded every’ cluster of habitations, shops and factories. Chambersburg, McConnellsburg, Mercersburg, Greencastle, Hanover, York, Greenwood, Carlisle, New’ Cumberland were some of the Pennsylvania places beside* Gettysburg that felt the ef-

Early’s division of Lee's army demanded $100,000 cash in addition to large quantities of food and clothing as ransom (to save the city from being burned). Both armies had general orders against looting. These simply were not enforced.
