Name of Maquoketa Boy Appears on Casualty List

In the overseas casualty list appearing in the Chicago Tribune Tuesday appears the name of Corporal Wylie Margeson, whose home is on Route 6, Maquoketa. He is reported as having been severely wounded in action, and is the first Maquoketa boy to fall by a Hun bullet. Further details will doubtless be forthcoming soon.
