proud that we can call you a hero who
answered the call of king and country

though you will perhaps be far die.

remain, with you, We ask you to

be with you and guard you through
your trials and struggles and again
bring you back crowned with victory.
Signed on behalf of neighbors.

The Baldwin standing grain thresh-
er eliminates the cutting, binding and
