ANOTHER GOOD MAN GONE WRONG:
The 2nd of September was a day of surpassing
sadness for Fort William H.Seward and vicinity, for on that dark
date our old friend Clifton ("Bee") Brewick,of Company "EH joined
if not the late, at least the lamented,-for on the 3na of September
"Bee** took unto himself a wife,^4iss Beatrice Fenwick, a popular
young lady of Haines. The last sad rites were performed by the
Rev.Mr*Denton,of the Presbyterian Mission,at 5.30 P«M*,at the
residence of Mr.and Mrs# Walt on, with whom the bride resides* The
Chief Pallbearer-(0,excuse us,we mean the Best Man),-was Pvt*
Clittis Groves of ,fE” Company,while Miss Emma Vermeir of Hanes
acted as Bridesmaid .The groom was also attended,-from the number
we gather that he must have been scared,-by Pvt.Qnmett Mee, of "Fw
Company,and Master Johnnie Fenwick.
"Bee's” friends from the Post gave him a great
send-off at the start of his wedded life,-and plenty of advice,which
if he has any sense,-and ■’'Bee" has,-he* 11 totally disregard,and do
as his better half tells him. While the poor lad has our best wishes,
we are forced to mourn the fact that it*s mow up to the Fort Seward
Ball Team to get a new second sacker,for we’ve never known a ball
player who was worth a hoot after he was married* 0,well,it’s all
in a lifetime, we suppose*
Seriously,though,the "Chilkat Post” rejoices
with "Bee" and Mrs.Brewick in their new-found happiness,and wishes
them many years of great joy.All that we ask is that Mrs.^Bee" learn
to appreciate,-if she has not already done so,-our old friend as
we do,-for the loyal pal,the good old scout,the Prince that he is*
The heartiest of congratulations,-"Bee”,and Mrs."Bee").1
CAPT.WRIGHT TO BE "PLANS & TRAINING OFFICER”;
Capt.Robert C.Wright,who reported to the Post
on the 4th,has been appointed "Plans and Training Officer",and has
already entered upon his new duties* The Captain has recently grad
uated from the Infantry School,at Fort Benning,Ga,,and is chock
full of all the latest wrinkles in efficient Doughboy training*
So we’re all sure to learn a great deal from him.It’s up to us, -
our record up to now is of tne best,-let’s see if we can’t im
prove even that standard of perfection.
