"Memorial Service for Hinkletown Soldier
An impressive service was held on Sunday night in the Bethany Reformed church, this borough, in memory of Charles Reemsnyder, a son of Dr. and Mrs. J.B. Reemsnyder of Hinkletown, who was killed in action in France on September 12. The service was largely attended, between four and five hundred people being present. Special music was rendered by the church choir and a solo was sung by Willis Weidman. Rev. O.T. Glessner, pastor of the church, perched an eloquent sermon taking as his text, Romans 5:7 'For a good man, some would even dare to die.'
Private Reemsnyder gave up his life in an attempt with the other members of his regiment to strengthen the St. Mihiel salient. The battle started at about 2 o'clock in the morning and Reemsnyder was killed a few hours later."
