Public Subscriptions for Dead Marine's Funeral Promised
In New York on November 2 public aid flows for Bill Anthony the Maine hero who died by his own hand in Central Park. His aunt Mrs Edward Kreitsch announces funds already and more promised to ensure a decent burial.

Anthony's wife is in Guyanoga awaiting word, and Kreitsch will oversee arrangements with support from contributors, one donor giving 10 dollars and another 25 dollars.
