Upon reading recently in the Cor
dova Times that Sergeant D. M.
Hocker, of the signal corps at Fair
banks, had come to Cordova, Mrs.
Bartley Howard was struck with a
sense of familiarity with the name.
#:>fore she had time to learn if he
was an old acquaintance, the young
u&m was taken yery ill, and was put
on board a southbound boat to be
hurried to the states. By the time
the ship reached Juneau his condi:
tion was so serious that he was cor

day. Since his death, Mrs. Howard
has learned that he was indeed the
one whom she remembered as a little
boy, the son of her old school master
in Freeport, Kentucky.
