Book excerpt: Excerpt from Martin County in the World War, 1917-1919 The preparation of this work was undertaken in order that the record of Martin County's services and sacrifices in the field and at home during the World War might be preserved to posterity. Martin County will have cause ever to reflect with pride upon what her people did in the great war for the preservation of our liberty and the overthrow of monarchical despotism and autocracy. The record herein contained is written imperfectly and incompletely, the material collected and collated while the memories of the war are fresh in the minds of all. It is the hope of the publishers that the work will possess the merit of interest to the people of this period and be of some historical value to future generations. The preparation of the individual records of the service men and women has involved almost endless labor and research, accomplished in nearly every case by personal interviews. The data has been assembled by one thoroughly conversant with military terminology and organization. It is therefore reasonably believed that a maximum of accuracy has been attained. It is a matter of regret to the publishers that not every individual record is complete and accompanied by a portrait. Every endeavor to that end, consistent with the time available for the purpose, was made but there were instances where inability to locate, indifference or other reason has made it impossible to accomplish the desired result. This is essentially a memorial volume devoted principally to the records of the service men. Other features have been introduced but civilian war activities have necessarily been subordinated that the limitations of a single volume might be adequate and the cost of production not rendered prohibitive. In compilation we have had valuable assistance from many individuals, all of which is gratefully acknowledged.
