LEWIS H. ROBERTSON

Lewis H. Robertson was born at Davey, Lancaster county, Nebraska, January 24, 1888. When he reached the tender age of three years, in the fall of 1891, he came with the family to the Black Hills Basin, Custer county, Ne- braska, where he resided until seven years ago, after which he spent part of his time at Hazard, in partnership with his brother, Matt. His father died three years after the family arrived on the Basin, August 5, 1894.

Corporal Robertson's premature departure is mourned by his mother. Mrs. Anna C. Sor- ensen, and by five brothers and two sisters - Charles E., William C., Fred G., Matt P., Hans A., Mrs. Lydia Stender, and Mrs. Mary C. Arp. He will also be missed by a host of friends and many army comrades.

The following comrades from Hazard who entered the army the same time as Corporal Robertson are: Ray Hennis, Lawrence Lar- son, Henry Rasmussen, William Rasmussen, Ernest Jacobsen, Chris H. Pierson, Earl Eck- lev, Joe Horak, Walter Cadwalden, Henry Pillen.

Corporal Robertson entered the army, as an alternate from Hazard, October 5, 1917. He served at Camp Funston in Company K, Three Hundred and Fifty-fifth Infantry, where he distinguished himself as a promising soldier and was transferred to the United States reg- ular army, Company G. Fourth Infantry, at Camp Stewart, Newport News, Virginia. Five

weeks later he sailed for France, and he ar- rived there April 15, 1918. He was well thought of by his officers at Camp Funston - Captain Moore, First Sergeant Melville, Me- Clullen, Schooks, Orchand. He was also prized by his officers in France - Colonel Harvey, Second Lieutenant R. C. Erwin, Ser- geant Case, First Lieutenant J. A. Crawford.

The Fourth Infantry, United States Regu- lars, was in the thick of the recent drive of the allies in which they were crowned with high honors. It was in this conflict that Corporal Lewis H. Robertson died in action, July 26, 1918, at the hopeful age of thirty years, one month and twenty days. More detailed ac- counts are lacking at this time. All we know is that he slumbers amidst vast armies of fallen heroes on the sacred soil of France. [A por- trait of and memorial tribute to Corporal Rob- ertson appear in the biographical department of this volume.]

GUSTAV ROERICK

It is with deep sorrow that we mourn the death of Private Gustav Roerick in this gold- e11-star service. He was born at Amherst, Ne- braska, March 9, 1892. When a child lie moved with his mother to the present home, on section 26, township 13, range 17, Custer county. His father died years ago ; his moth- er, Mrs. Anna Roerick, remarried and is now known as Mrs. Hartman. His brother Alfred enlisted last March at Broken Bow and en- tered the Coast artillery, at Camp Nickols, Vir- ginia. When last heard from he was at Camp Upton, New York. A young brother. Arnold, works the farm. He also leaves two sisters to mourn his death, Ida and Anna.

Private Roerick was drafted last September and entered Camp Funston. From there he was transferred to Camp Dick and finally he crossed the ocean to participate in the struggle on French soil, where he was killed during an attack by the enemy June 17, 1918. His com- pany had been subjected to a severe artillery bombardment. Nevertheless he lieroically re- mained at his post, aiding in the protection of the United States machine guns. As a soldier he was respected and genuinely liked by his comrades and highly thought of by his officers. Ilis loss to themi is a source of deep sorrow. His natural witticisms made him many friends, both in private and army life. At home he proved himself an obedient and thoughtful son and brother. Those who were akin to him were always uppermost in his life's plans, even to the very end. He gladly sacrificed himself on the sacred altar of his country, at the hope- ful age of twenty-six years, three months, and

eight days. His remains rest somewhere across the sea, on the blood-drenched soil of our sis- ter republic, France. God comfort and bless the dear ones who willingly gave him to his country. It has become our sorrowful duty to place on our service flag a golden star, the first one in our section of Custer county, to commemorate our fallen hero. A star is a universal symbol of glory. For countless cen- turies it has stood for the highest achievements

and ideals. To the minds of America to-day. that star is the most sacred which represent a soldier boy in khaki on some service flag. That fair. five-pointed emblem proclaims to all who behold it that its living representative fights for the world's freedom. And if that star of blue has changed to one of gold, the observer realizes that he treads on sacred ground which death has visited. It means a life that served faithfully under the true blue, has culminated in the golden act of sacrificing its all. For one to offer his life for the cause of liberty under the Stars and Stripes is a golden deed worthy of commemoration. Thus we change Private Roerick's star of blue into one of gold.

He was a son of Felix Bernert. a represen- tative citizen who is individually mentioned in the biographical department of this publication.

As this review of Custer county necrology in the great war has been prepared prior to the

close of military service on the part of many of the Custer county boys, it is evident that the list here given is not to be considered con- plete. The record must needs be supplemented by data to be given in later publications.

CUSTER'S MILITARY RECORD

It has been impossible to secure a list of all who have gone in the service of the country from Custer county. The boys of the county have been exceedingly prompt to respond to the call to the colors, and there has been no way by which the volunteers can be named. We have been able to procure a partial list of the names, but it is known to be incomplete and does not contain the names of all those who have gone. Accordingly the appended list gives the names of only those of whom we have some record, and it is to be regretted that we cannot give the list in full. It must also be borne in mind that this list closed before the last contingents left. In some instances the going of the men has been anticipated and their names recorded :
