street, has received word from her
brother, Fred Marshall, that )le has been appointed military a e at the American Legation, The ague, H·etherlands, and has entered upon
" duties. Marshall, in a letter, says he is
1ing like an ambassadOf,_ "In fact," he adds, "my ifice is st three doors from tbe home of the 1ecn's mother, and in the same ilding."I was sent here from Paris after ;ving written a little article upon
:my life," h~ continues. "It created 1ch favorable attention from the ofcers about the photographic laborary, where I was working, that I was
' liefo e the major for an in' · ter uestioning me about
my army life and education, he told ! me a man was being sought by the American Legation at The Hague to do important correspondent and secret service photographic work. So I was picked for the position and find myself here in the mid11t of diplomats and government officials. I have an office of my own at the American '!
Legation." Marshall, who formerly was at the
Recording and Computing Machines . company, tells of many interesting ' things he has observed in Holland. That country is in a difficult plight, he says, partly because of conditions resulting from the war and partly because she sold much of her own stocks to Germany. Conditions, he remarks, are worse than in Belgium.1 A brother of Marshall, Murray R. Marshall, is a resident of Cedarville.
