Read More	7th Field Signal Battalion Cecil B. Leaverton, youngest son of Alvin and Lucinda Jane Leaverton, was born September 30, 1898, and entered his eternal rest at 3:30 a. m., February 21, 1925, at the home of his parents in Cantril, Iowa. Cecil enlisted in the United States Army April 17, 1917, and was assigned to the Seventh Field Signal Battalion of the 15th Division of the Regular Army and was honorably discharged August 1st, 1919. His devotion and service to his country, which he served so faithfully, was secondly only to his love and sincere devotion to his father and mother who ministered so tenderly in his last days of suffering. The dreaded disease of tuberculosis fastened itself upon him while he was so faithfully serving his country, but he fought with fortitude and perseverence to regain his health that he might longer administer to the comfort of his loved parents who waited as the taps were sounded calling him from the pain and strife of life's battle to the calm and peace of eternal life. He leaves to mourn their loss his aged father and mother, loving sister, Mrs. C. C. Hoskin of Fort Dodge, Iowa, who was unable to be with him during his last hours owing to her serious illness, two brothers, J. J. Leaverton of Macon, Mo., and Lee Leaverton of Burlington, Iowa.
