From the Pulaski Enterprise newspaper back in 1918. Now those folks knew how to write. Remains of Mound City Hero Returned from France Private Frank Cannon Company G—119 Infantry 30th Division Killed in Action September 29th, 1918 Trained in the pursuits of peace, loving home, hating war, but shirking no duty or responsibility of citizenship, Frank Cannon, the younger son of James and Elizabeth Cannon, responded at the first opportunity when his country called to the colors. He sought no easy path nor did he shrink from any of the necessary hazards of war. A true patriot, a real American and a hero who did his bit in carrying the stars and stripes over the shell-swept, blood-soaked, field of Flanders into enemy territory. It was this sort of red-blooded strong-hearted, brave young men from the great Republic overseas that crumbled the autocratic thrones of Europe and caused this Government and its Army to become the envy of the world.
