WOUNDED IN FRANCE
LOUIS ROTHMAN RECEIVES A
WOUND IN FOOT, IN BATTLE
IN OCTOBER, IS WELL NOW.
Has Written Two Times Since Oc
currence, Last Times Says
Feeling Fine.
From Sat u i .lay's- laily.
The great big hearted man that
he is. caused Louis Rothman. when
wounded in hat tie on the western
front, to endeavor to keep the fact
from the knowledge of his mother
in order to save the worry, did n-t
write home about the accident.
With studied phraseology, he said
that he had not been with tin? com
pany for some two weeks, when he
was in the hospital recovering from
the wound which has taken him
there. Later on. Dec. :.rd. he wrote
again, telling that he had not been
with the company for some six
weeks, and savins he was feeling
fine and thought That he would be
home in a short time, still endeavor
ing to keep the matter from his
mother, that she might not grieve.
This last letter was received a few
days since. But from other sources
has filtered through the news of
the wound, in which the fact of his
wounding comes out. The partner of
Louis, the man who occupied tlie
same hunk with him. and was his
chum, during their stay there wrote
to his brother-in-law. who lives at
O'Neill, where he is working in the
railroad shops, and as it happened
was the follow employe of Henry
Rothman. who is a brother -jf
Louie Kothman. the letter was read
to Henry, who wrote his sister Mrs.
CJ. CI. Ramsey of Omaha, spending
Christmas at the home of her par
ents brought the news. The letter
from Loui" arriving tlie day before
and telling of his feeling line and
wa.-s coming home. h- c..l news, and
ihows him to K in fine form, which
keeps the mother, who has had un
easiness .since the flute of the war.
on account of not hearing from her
son. from worrying as she would
have necessarily' done. We cannot
hep but I'dmire the noble yours
man who endeavors to shield the
loving mother, from the worry and
suffering which would haw come
to her had she have had kt.owlei'e
of the facts, during the time when
it was not known what the re.--i!i
would have been. The mother at
heme is suffering with 'he son. who
is wounded and many Hints, when
the son is not hurt, as on account
of the uncertainty, as to tleir con
dition, and which could not b" as
certained. We are pleased to know
that Lou 5" is getting alon;: all right,
and that he will soon be at home
airain.

NOEL B. RAWLS, FORMERLY OF
THIS PLACE, MAKING GOOD
IN STATE OF MONTANA.
AS A PARTNER IN BUSINESS
Our Former Townsman Was Re
porter On This Paepr Before
Going to the West.
From Saturday's 1 tally.
The following clipping from the
Loui-town Mont Argus, tells of the
advancement of one of the former
citizens of tiiis town. Noel 13.
Rawls son of Mr. and Mrs. C. A.
llawls of this city, was while here
employed as the local reporter on
the Journal, and was an excellent
young man a good worker and able.
He relinquished his position here
to accept a similar position on the
Idaho Statesman, at Roise, Idaho,
which was several years ago, and
has remained in the west ever since.
Noel 15. Rawls is an exemplary
young man and one with much ca
pacity, his brother J. A. Rawls,
mentioned in the article is also an
excellent young man:
"The deal was consummated this
week by which Noel 15. Rawls pur
chased a one-half interest in the
state agency for Montana of the
Dakota Life Insurance company of
Murray L. Coff. The oitices of the
company are located in the Mont
ana building.
Mr. Goff came here about a yeir
ago as state agent for the company
and opened offices. About seven
months ago Mr. Rawls left his posi
tion as assistant cashier of the Le
high State bank and associated him
self with Mr. Goff and he has prov
en such a success in the busines;-
that Mr. Goff has now taken him in
full partnership.
Since the office was opened here
last February the Dakota Life has
loaned a large amount of money on
Montana farm lands; in fact, it has
more money now invested in that
manner than it has realized from
business in Montana.
Mr. Rawls is a brother of J. A.
Rawls. the popular Milwaukee con
ductor. He came here from Idaho
a year ago and was for some time
employed as a special writer on the
Argus.
