Pvt. Nick Medinger Killed in France

Announcement of the death of another one of our Bellevue boys reached here Sunday afternoon when Michael Medinger received a telegram from Washington, D. C., stating that his son, Private Nick Medinger, died on October 21, 1918, from wounds he suffered in action. Mr. Medinger had not any word from Nick for over five weeks, but a week ago Friday received a letter from France, written by a Sister in the hospital where Private Medinger was being cared for, which stated he had been seriously gassed and was in serious condition, but was being given every care and attention.-Bellevue Herald
