Dedicate Memorial To Teuton Dead

Asheville, Nov. 20 .- Honoring the memory of 18 German sailors who; died at the United States government people, especially the gratitude of hospital at Kenilworth of typhoid the families of those in whose mem- ------ fever during the World war while in- jory this monument stands." terned as alien enemies, a massive granite boulder was dedicated on the -- spot where they lie in peace in Riv- erside cemetery here today.
As several thousands looked on. scattered over the rolling hills that are part of the picturesque Blue Ridge mountains, Thomas B. Black, former commander of Kiffin Rock- well post No. 2 of the American Legion, presented the marker. It was received by Dr. F. W. von Pritt- witz, German ambassador to the United States, who came here from Washington especially for the cere- monies.
"The impressive monument which we are dedicating today is erected in memory of 18 German seamen who died during the World war in American camps and were buried in American cemeteries." Ambassador von Prittwitz said.
"German and American citizens join in bidding them from the depth of their hearts their last mournful salute, requiescat in peace.

"It is my privilege to represent the German people at this ceremony and to express to all those who con- tributed to the erection of this com- memorative stone the deepest and heartfelt gratitude of the German
"These men died far from home and kindred," Mr. Black said in presenting the memorial. "We now say to their friends and countrymen that these brave men have been tak- en to the bosom of America: that American soil will cherish them; that their names and their lives shall not be forgotten."
"Your excellency," Mr. Black de- clared, "we are dedicating this moon- ument to your dead heroes. We are dedicating it to their patriotism. We are dedicating it to the cause of peace and good will among men, and to the cause of everlasting peace between you and us. May your peo- ple be our people, even as your God is our God."
The huge boulder which stands as a common marker for the eighteen graves surrounding it, bears the names of the eighteen German sailors buried in the plot. The American Legion posts of Asheville sponsored the erection of the monument.
