Private Wilbur Talbott
Private Wilbur S. Talbott arrived home this week from Quantico, Virginia, near
Washington, D.C. where he has been stationed for the last two weeks, to visit his mother and family until the last of the week.
The members of his company, the Seventy-sixth Company, Sixth Regiment of the United States Marines, were allowed a ten-day furlough and most all of them availed themselves of the opportunity to go to see home folks as it will undoubtedly be the a time for a while as they will probably sail about the 10th of September for France.

I'm occasionally adding the actual scanned image of the obituary I make using my VERY expensive - large commercial scanner,
and/or also other articles about the deceased person that were published in the Manning Monitor.
I want to also comment about people who are taking my obituaries, pictures, and/or other articles about a person/family and posting them on other websites.
You do NOT have permission or the right to do this - you are stealing my historical work.
Buy your own scanning equipment, pay for memberships to other commercial websites,
and spend decades working on your local history like I have - then you'll understand why I'm making these comments!
Thank you for your attention to this matter - Dave Kusel
