The last services for Albert S. Hodges who died as a result of wounds, in the fighting at St. Mihiel, France, was held from the Baptist church Sunday at 2:30 p.m. conducted by Elder Amos Berbe, of the church of Latter Day Saints of Cedar Rapids. A large number of the members of Ross Reid Post, American Legion, were in attendance and formed an escort to Woodlawn Cemetery where interment took place with military honors. The floral offerings were elaborate and the service was very impressive. Albert S. Hodges was born in Oran township, November 23, 1883, the son of Mr. and Mrs. John Hodges, and passed away September 21, 1918 at St. Mihiel, France, shortly after being wounded in battle. He was a faithful son and worker, and had helped to support the family by working on the farm, also for the C. G. W. Railroad. When he was called to the service of his country, he answered willingly. He left with the presentiment that he would not return alive. When he boarded the train in Oelwein he said, "Mother I am leaving alive but don't expect to come back alive." He was a member of Company A, 357 Infantry, A.E.F. and fell when fighting the enemy in St. Mihiel sector. The body arrived in the city Saturday morning. There are left to mourn his passing his parents, five brothers, four sisters, other relatives and many friends. He made the supreme sacrifice for America in a battle won by the American Army, he sleeps near where most of his life was passed. Contributor: jmb (47320890)
