— Abe Ediger, son of Mr. and Mrs. John Ediger of Hillsboro, Kansas, for a number of years an engineer on an American merchant ship in the Atlantic, lost his life about the middle of June when his ship was torpedoed by a German submarine. The last to leave the ship, he was lost overboard. Although rescued later, he failed to rally and died the next day. He was buried in the American cemetery in the Panama Canal Zone.
