Many had been residents of the county but a very short time before entering the service, and failed to return upon their discharge. Therefore it was impossible to trace them and secure the necessary photographs and service records. It was impossible to picture the Red Cross society officers as befitted them. Not a few of the ladies were reluctant to allow their photographs and records of service to be used, and in many instances complete records of the activities of the many auxiliaries have not been available, due to the inability to record all matters during the stress of war times.

Pr�sentation de l'�diteur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
