Volume I Number 29 Augirt 3, 1955 . Brimson, Minnesota
. OFFICERS' MEETING HELD AT 710
Obi tuary
Russell Ponliot, born
December 27, 1914, at Red
Lake Falls, Minnesota, has
answered the last and final call. Death took him
away from us tragically
and sudd.enly on Satur-"
August 3, at 6:42 A.M.
Though he has gone to
some happier camping place
to rest in glory and peace
the memories of him will
live with us and remind us
of all the fine-- and upright morals that were endowed in him.
Russell was enrolled in
our camp on April 18, 1935
and a short time after lie
came here, was made Hospital Orderly, which position he filled with pride
and effeciency.
Last Sunday, July 28,
he went with' the baseball
team to Two Harbors, and
apparently he contracted a
cold while riding to and
from the game, which resulted in a fatal case of
Lobar Pneumonia.
He was taken to the
hospital at Two Harbors on
Monday night, and although
every possible care was
given him, and every effort made to save him, he
passed away.
The enrolled camp per-
sonell joins the official
personell in extending its
condolence to the bereaved
Mother of Russell.
You're right! Itl-6 our
1D. R. 0. ' , Joh_ my Burke. He
slices bread, like newly-
weds make love; and that
reminds us that he has a
sweet, or should we say
very sweet, girl in Duluth.
We know, we've seen her.
Congratulations, lucky guy.
Johnny came into this
camp in October, 1934, and
was given his present job
as Dining Room Orderly in
the latter part of April.
His main ambition is to
be a 'top-notch' fisticufr
fist, and according to the
way he looked in his last
few bouts, he'll soon be
at the top .of the fistic
ladder.
Keep up the good work,
Johnny; we know you got
'if in you and we're all
for you.
