Horton, Thomas {I252} (b. 1638, d. 8 MAR 1715/16)
Given Name: Thomas
Note: There is a book written by "Margaret Jenks and Frank Seymour" Titled"Thomas Horton of Milton and Rehoboth Family"
This book contains information on the Horton family Not All The FamilyInformation contained in the book is correct (per "Holly HortonRevard" the authors family line is incorrect but some of the names aregood and have great info.
Holly also, supplied me with a story about Henry De Horton DOB 1220which is attached to his individual record.
11/22/98 - Per Family researcher Bonnie Douglas Col. Thomas Horton hasnot been proven as Thomas father: She writes in her print out.
Not proven that his father is Col. Thomas Horton see book ThomasHorton of Milton & Rehoboth Massachusetts by Margaret Jenks and FrankC. Seymour vol 1 pg 193. This book can be found at FHC in Salt LakeCity, Utah. If this is the same Thomas he was living in Cardiff, WalesJuly 3 1649.
Sealing to spouse show marriagae date of December 22 1693, I beleivethis is the date of the intentions and the marriage was on December25, 1693.
(10/8/1999) "Telegraph Horton's by RUTH HORTON METZLER
THOMAS HORTON born before 3 July 1649 was called "my only Sonne ThomasHorton" under the age of twenty-one, in the will of Col. Thomas Hortonwritten at Cardiff, Wales, on that date. He may be that child called"their son" whom Thomas Horton and wife baptised at Alveston,Warwickshire, on 13 Feb. 1641.
Col. Thomas Horton can be placed in the Alveston vicinity by acombination of three established facts: Sir Arthur Haselrig, employerof Thomas Horton (XIII.5) raised a troop of horse and led them in thebattle at Edgehill; Col. Thomas Horton owned a horse colled"Haselrigg" which was chief among his soldierly possessions beingfirst mentioned in his supplemental will; the conflict at Edgehillnear Kineton, only ten miles southeast of Alveston, was fought on 23Oct. 1642. There are three other probable facts which support thislikelihood: Thomas Horton (XIII.5) had relatives who lived at nearbyTredington, Warwickshire, as late as 1620 with whom he might havesojourned in early travels from Leicestershire; Thomas (XIII.5) mayhave received his 1643 appointment as Colonel solely on the basis ofbattle experience at Edgehill; the Thomas Horton and wife who baptizedthat son at Alveston seem not to have had any other children of recordthere.
The language and implication of the will of Col. Thomas Hortonindicate that the only son Thomas was without sisters or survivingmother, for no provisions were made for them. The solitary position ofthe only son Thomas is further evidenced in a personal letter writtenon 25 Oct. 1649 by Col. Thomas Horton's military comrade and friendOliver Cromwell: "Colonel Horton is lately dead of the country diseaseleaving a son behind him."
The will of Col. Thomas Horton was proved at Cardiff on 16 Jan.1650/1. The only son Thomas who was named as executor was not then ofage and was called by Parliament "the young son" in their action of 25March 1651. In that action, the sum of £900 was given to the"trustees" of young Thomas "in full satisfaction and discharge of allarrears due to Colonel Horton deceased, and all demands in respect tohis services".
If baptized at Alveston in 1641, young Thomas would have been tenyears old when his father's military remunerations were awarded him on25 March 1651. In a very rare action, the father Thomas had named noless than five guardians: Col. J. Philip Jones, John St. Loe, WalterCradock, John Horton and James Horton. The significance of this actionhas been carefully studied for clues, which would help to establishthe identity of this only son Thomas Horton and what became of him.
As will be suggested, each of the five guardians was chosen for hisindividual ability to provide a unique service for the fatherless boy.That they were not all in Cardiff nor likely to be, is clear from theTestator's stipulation that he gave "Them or any three of Them, powerto order and manage his estate to his sole benefitt and best advantageuntil he shall attain the full age of one and twenty years." The firstthree guardians named were probably in Wales if not in Cardiff, whilethe last two, Thomas's brothers were evidently not.
Sometime before 1653, the first-named guardian, Col. J. Philip Joneshad been instrumental in his army comrade's estate settlement, for hepersonally purchased the properties, which had been awarded byparliament to Col. Horton and his brigade. According to Jones'sbiographer, Jones was then the Cromwellian governor of Cardiff Castleand a shrewd businessman. He purchased "Wrinston with three adjoiningmanors" in Glamorganshire. (Col. Jones's father David Johnes (sic)owned the freehold of Penywaun in Glamorganshire; the Jones family,being landed and responsible in business matters, provided long yearsof essential support to the Puritan cause.) With this purchase, PhilipJones who was surely privy to the ambitions which Thomas Horton heldfor his son, exchanged the responsibilities of land ownership for theyoung Thomas for the advantage of movable assets which could bereadily available when he became of age. Col. Jones, "a most trustedcouncillor of Oliver Cromwell", was undoubtedly also the friend whomCol. Horton most trusted to advise his young son in business matters.It is inconceivable that Col. Jones would have acted contrary to theexpressed wishes of Col. Horton concerning the Glamorganshire land;had he considered it, the Welshman John St. Loe and the ministerWalter Cradock could have out-voted him. Col. Jones was living and ina position of influence when the son Thomas became of age which was, Ibelieve, in 1662.
John St. Loe was the second guardian and with his wife Margaret, alsoa witness. Young Thomas was clearly present in Cardiff since there isno mention in the will of moving him from one place to another, and Iconclude that he was under the care of John and Margaret St. Loe on 3July 1649. Goodwin tells us that Col. Horton "had long been in failinghealth"; perhaps he had been wounded in battle and had receivedmedical care in the St. Loe home. Like Col. Jones, John and MargaretSt. Loe were doubtless Welsh and evidently members of a Baptistcongregation to which Col. Horton also belonged. Perhaps they were theones to provide care far young Thomas while he needed it.
Sir Walter Cradock, the third guardian, is elsewhere in the willcalled a "Minister of the Ghospel" and in the second will, "Mr.Cradock". Not necessarily present in Cardiff, he was somewhere inWales according to the second will. He was surely included by theconcerned testator to ensure the spiritual education of young Thomas.(**The following is the final page of this document….there was aseveral pages missing from the original document)
Horton--Robert Badcock. That family name is seen in Wales, whereWilliam Badcocke of Iliston was baptized and joined the Baptistcongregation of Rev. John Myles in 1652, as shown by the Iliston Bookrecords. This was the nonconformist group, which migrated, to NewEngland with their pastor about 1662. Robert, George and David Badcockwere all early settlers of Milton. In time to come, Thomas Horton ofMilton's sons, Solomon and David married Susanna and Mary Badcock,daughters of Enoch (George 1) Badcock of Milton. The two families mayhave had earlier Welsh associations; members of both families latermigrated to Rehoboth. It is possible Robert Badcock had a part in thearrangements to receive and establish young Thomas Horton at Milton.
Two years after Thomas's arrival, a James Houghton participated in aMilton church meeting on 17 July 1664. Milton historian Robbins saysthat "probably every church member or freeman in Milton" that is,seventeen men, solemnly agreed to construct a meeting-house on theeight acres of land which Robert Vose gave to the town for thatpurpose. The coincidence of James Houghton's name suggests that he isthe James Horton of Gumley guardian of his nephew Thomas, who with theRestoration preferred another spelling of his name. It is possiblethat he emigrated earlier with the Hooker or Higginson groups andsettled on the wilderness fringes of the Dorchester, later Miltonsettlement. If he was the Leicestershire man, he would have been about62 years of age in 1664. The possibility is enhanced by the absence ofany records of this James in England. (However, the claim is also madethat James Houghton was the son of Ralph and Jane (Stowe) Haughton ofLancaster and Milton, and grandson of Ralph Haughton. Ralph Haughtonemigrated from Lancashire to Charlestown about 1645 and by 1653 was afounder of Lancaster, Massachusetts, with twenty-four others. Teele,who gives this information, does note that Ralph "fought underCromwell against Charles I, though he had been previously knighted bythe king for service to his person." It would seem that theHaughton/Houghton family of Lancaster and Milton shared commonpolitical views with Thomas Horton of Milton, but no relationship hasbeen found, and attempts to connect James Houghton with Thomas Hortonof Milton cannot be sustained.) Therefore, the fifth named guardian ofthe 3 July 1649 will remains the subject of further search.
Whatever reason drew young Thomas to Milton, he settled and remainedthere until 1704, when he removed to Rehoboth, where he died in March1715/6.

"Telegraph Horton's by RUTH HORTON METZLER (10/08/1999)
COLONEL THOMAS HORTON
born undoubtedly at Saddington, Leicestershire, probably in 1600; died
in Ireland of malaria on the military march from Ross to Waterford,
between 3 July 1649 and 25 Oct. 1649; probably married --- (-) by
1641.
Thomas, second son of Wi1liam, was born in Saddington, where his
parents were married in 1597. The family removed to Gumley sometime
after his father purchased the manor of Gumley in 1608.
In his youth, Thomas entered service in the household of Sir Arthur
Haselrig/ Heslerig; a wealthy Puritan whose manor was located nine
miles northeast of Gumley at Mosley. Here he was trained as a
falconer. Sir Arthur, whose considerable career in national politics
has been noticed by several historians, delighted in the country
pastimes of hawking and falconry. Oliver Cromwell, a long-time friend
of Sir Arthur, also loved hawking and this circumstance combined with
the common religious and political views which both men held, brought
them together--all three of them in fact--in the fields of
Leicestershire.
Thomas Horton's life was unquestionably shaped by these two who were
his contemporaries, Cromwell (to whose cause Thomas devoted his life,
was born in 1599) and Sir Arthur Haselrig. Ironically, a third
individual whose life affected Thomas Horton to a high degree, was
also born in 1600: Charles I who became King of England in 1625. Since
Thomas played an important role in the momentous events of his time,
much more is known of his life than of any of his Leicestershire
family. And strangely enough, perhaps for the same reason, very little
is known about his son's life.
The momentous events that engulfed England during Thomas's lifetime
must be dealt with here, however briefly, for some understanding of
them seems essential to an appreciation of his place in history and in
this genealogy.
Thomas Horton was born in the final years of the reign of Elizabeth I.
The succession to the throne of James I in 1603 marked the beginning
of a course that would eventually lead to the complex series of
struggles known as the English Civil War (1642-1649).
Politically, Englishmen were divided between those whose chief loyalty
was to the crown and those who wished to limit royal power,
particularly the landed gentry and local officials in counties and
cities. At the highest level it was a struggle between Parliament and
two kings, James I, 1603-1625, and Charles 'I, 1625-1649.
Economically, from Parliament down, Englishmen of all levels were
deeply divided. Charles's eleven-year suspension of Parliament
(1629-1649) only increased opposition to his taxation measures, his
tampering with industry and trade, and his foreign policy bred a
widespread suspicion of corruption in the court.
Religiously, there were highly sensitive questions involving the power
and intolerance of the established Anglican Church (within which
Puritanism was emerging with diversity and promise of powerful
possibilities), the continued strength of Roman Catholicism especially
in Ireland, the demands of the Presbyterian Church in Scotland, and
the steady spread throughout the countryside of the Bible (authorized
by James I in the English language) which gave every literate
Englishman a new sense of individual control over his spiritual
destiny.
The unrest in England was further subjected to attempts of the
Spanish, French and Dutch courts to influence events in England to
their own benefit, while internally the vacillations of the kings and
the intrigues of a host of civil, ecclesiastical, and military leaders
throughout the British Isles added chaos. Such was the tumultuous
half-century into which Thomas Horton was born.
His native Leicestershire had been well known for its religious fervor
from the time of John Wycliffe's service as rector of nearby
Lutterworth (1374-1384). At Market Harborough, five miles southeast of
Gumley, the wealthy Puritan Robert Smythe founded in 1614 a grammar
school, which was built, with his bequest. Thomas appears to have had
a fair education, probably in Market Harborough, as evidenced by the
language of his will and his firm signature on a public document, soon
to be discussed.
Brought together, then, in the country pastime of hawking, Sir Arthur
Haselrig, Oliver Cromwell and Thomas Horton shared common views, and
in time, a camaraderie developed which lasted until their deaths.
Haselrig and Cromwell are both of record as favoring the Petition of
Right of 1628, by which Parliament attempted to check the power of the
king, and both consistently championed local rights. Their stated
sympathies clearly led them away from the established authorities,
both king and church. Thomas Horton's association with these two
prominent Puritans was to have a profound effect on the course of his
life.
Although Anglican persecution of the Puritan sect increased under
Archbishop Laud, Haselrig and Cromwell for a time saw no need to join
the Separatist Puritans, who had gone to Holland as early as 1607 and
by 1621 were living at Plymouth Plantation in the New World. Rather,
their course of statesmanship was based on the hope that Charles I
would soften his attitude concerning political and religious rights of
the individual.
By the end of the 1620's, however, harvests in England were bad,
poverty was rife, and the prospects of improved rights were
discouraging. Not surprisingly, many Puritans became interested in
emigrating to the New World; a large company departed under the
leadership of John Winthrop, Sr., in the great fleet of 1630 which
resulted in a ring of little towns edging Boston harbor in
Massachusetts.
Cromwell and Haselrig joined with another group of wealthy Puritans
under the leadership of John Winthrop, Jr., with the intention of
establishing a settlement on 1,500 acres at the mouth of the
Connecticut River, to be called Saybrook. In 1635 Winthrop led a party
of servants and workmen, together with livestock and supplies, to
build a fort and manor houses for the "most prominent Puritan lords
and gentlemen," who were to follow.
Although there is no documentary evidence, (the earliest records of
Saybrook are not extant) there are reasons to believe that Thomas
Horton was among the servants whom Haseirig sent to Saybrook. First,
his several biographers have been unable to account for his
whereabouts after he left the Haseirig household (if he did leave)
prior to 1643. Second, it is highly unlikely that Thomas could have
been commissioned a colonel in the Parliamentarian army in 1643
without prior military experience. Such experience could well have
been acquired in skirmishes, say, under Capt. John Mason, with the
Indians in the Connecticut valley during the early Saybrook years.
Third, it is apparent that a number of Cromwell's soldiers were drawn
from the colonies, as was Mason himself, who settled at Saybrook about
1637, but returned to serve under Sir Thomas Fairfax in England.
Lastly, it is of record that Haselrig agreed to send servants to
Saybrook to prepare for his planned emigration.
In Alveston, Warwickshire, Back in England, which Thomas Horton may or
may not have left, a solitary parish record exists: Thomas Horton and
wife baptized their son Thomas Horton on 13 Feb. 1641. Attempts to
date to prove or disprove this connection have been unsuccessful, and
it remains the most probable record of the place and date of birth of
Thomas's "only Sonne Thomas Horton". A summary of the facts, which led
to this conclusion, is given with the son's life below.
Sir Arthur Haseirig, as well as other prominent Puritans, had found it
impossible to sell his estate without attracting the attention of
Charles I's government, which was concerned with any revenue
possibilities from the landed gentry. Cromwell had been prevented by
the king from emigrating and by 1641 was an outspoken Member of
Parliament like Haselrig. On 4 Jan.1642, Charles I named Sir Arthur as
one of those "Five Members" of Parliament who were ringleaders in
"prolonged and treasonous attempts to wrench away" his royal
authority. Lacking parliamentary support to enforce his orders for
their arrest, Charles I left both the House of Commons and then
London, never to return until the time of his death. During the
restless months of 1642 there were certain negotiations, but both the
Parliamentarians and the Royalists "desperately searched about for the
materials of war" as one historian puts it.
At Edgehill near Kineton, only 10 miles southeast of Alveston, on 23
Oct. 1642, the two sides met in conflict for the first time. Haselrig
was there, having raised a troop of horse in Essex's army, and fought
under the command of Sir William Balfour. Quite likely Thomas Horton
was there too, mounted on a horse, which Sir Arthur provided. If
Cromwell was at Edgehill at all, it was as an observer.
However, by the spring of 1643, Cromwell had not only raised his own
troop in his Native Huntingdonshire, but began to extend it into a
regiment which would become a positive army, the New Model. And by May
1643, both Cromwell and Horton were colonels, Thomas in the army of
Sir Thomas Fairfax; Sir Arthur was also an officer, commanding a
regiment of cuirassiers in July 1643.
On 24 June 1643, Parliament resolved that Thomas Horton be recommended
to Lord Inchiquin "to have the command which Sir William Ogle formerly
had in Ireland." Deep-seated resentment against the King's
anti-Catholic policies still remained from the Irish rising of Oct.
1641. Most of the principal action of the Civil War took place in the
northern and eastern parts of England, where Fairfax and Cromwell
defeated the King's forces at Marston Moor in 1644 and at Naseby in
1645, forcing Charles to flee to Scotland.
Col. Thomas Horton seems to have held the command in Ireland until
early 1648, when a fresh revolt of Royalists broke out in South Wales
and Parliamentary

story written by Mary on the Halifax Explosion:
A DAY OF HORROR
During World War I, the city of Halifax, Nova Scotia, was one of thebusiest in Canada. Noted for the second best harbor in the world,ships were coming and going at all times. Transports were carryingarmed forces from both Canada and the United States.
On December 6, 1917, business started as usual, stores had openedtheir doors for business, children were on their way to school.
I was always a late sleeper and at nine I was awakened by the movingor my bed. I sat up and wondered what was happening. There was aterrific noise, like bombs exploding. The windows crashed in, theceiling fell, and soot from the fireplace filled the room. My bed waslittered with glass, soot, and plaster. I could hear people screamingin the street, but I was too scared to move out of my bed. I thought,"This is the end of the world, and any minute now I will be gone."
I was alone in the house, as the younger children were on their way toschool, and my mother had fled the house with my youngest sister. Icould hear my mother in the street saying, "My daughter is in there,"but I still could not move out of bed. Most people thought we werebeing bombed, but that never entered my mind.
I don't know how long I was there, but one of my younger brothers,finally crawled up the stairs, over all the debris, and reached myroom. He asked, "Are you all right, Sis?" I assured him I was, butthat the world was coming to an end! He persuaded me to get out of bedand come downstairs. When I did, you could not tell whether my colorwas black or white. My hair was filled with plaster, and I wascovered with soot. When I reached the kitchen my mother was glad tosee I was safe, and said I should have a cup of tea.
In a short time soldiers were at our door telling us we would have toleave our home. Meantime, my father came home and told us what hadhappened. A ship filled with TNT had blown up in the harbor, fireswere burning everywhere, and one of the barracks where ammunition wasstored was in great danger of blowing up. If this happened, our citywas lost. We were told to go to the Citadel Hill, an old fort quiteclose to where we lived, and if we heard a rumble, to lie flat on ourstomachs.
We left our home, with just what we had on, and a few blankets.Thousands of people were there, covering a large area. We could seeour house from where we were, thinking every minute it would probablygo and we would have no home left. It was terrible suspense! By thattime I must have been in a state of shock because I could not stopshaking. They put blankets on me, but nothing helped. I don't rememberhow long we were there, but it seemed an eternity. We could see peoplerunning, screaming, looking for loved ones, not knowing where theywere or what happened to them. Wagons and cars were driving by withdead and injured, babies were born in the street, - it was really aday of horror.
We were finally told to return to our homes, as everything was undercontrol at the barracks. What a wonderful relief to know we had aplace to go to, even if we had no windows!
We lived about two miles from the explosion. We were fortunatecompared with the folks near where it happened. The fire on the shipwas a sight to see. People flocked there to see it or were looking outtheir windows. The fire apparatus and horse-drawn wagons were makingtheir way to the fire. The horses and wagons were blown to eternity,one thousand people lost their eyes, two thousand were killed, andthousands were injured. Every available place was made into a hospitalor morgue.
Windows were broken eighty miles away, and in the business districtyou would have thought you were walking in slush, as the plate glasswindows were shattered into small pieces. Bits of steel from the shipcould be picked up everywhere on the street. The cannon was blown fromthe ship three miles across the city and the anchor about the samedistance in the opposite direction and can be seen there today. Housesnear the explosion were blown down and on fire, people were trapped intheir homes, and many burned to death. What a horrible sight for menat work who rushed home to see their loved ones, injured and trapped,and they could not get close enough to rescue them!
Halifax Harbor is connected to Bedford Basin by a narrow strip ofwater, known as the Narrows. Two ships, one entering the Basin and oneleaving, met in the Narrows and collided. One was the Mont Blanc, aFrench ship. The Frenchmen knew the dangerous cargo aboard, and whenthe fire broke out after the collision they left the ship and kepttrying to warn people of the danger, but no one knew whet they weresaying as they spoke French. After the explosion there was a tidalwave, taking everything in its path. You could see the bottom of theharbor, I have been told.
The next day, December 7, there was a snowstorm, and that made it moredifficult for those who were trying to get relief to the suffering.Relief came from the United States and upper Canada. Nurses anddoctors were badly needed and a great many arrived as soon aspossible. So many were injured that all the nurses and doctors coulddo the first day was take care of the critical cases and the minorones had to wait.
Another problem was to find shelter for the many homeless people. Somewere transported by horse-drawn flat wagons to the country side, andthe roads leading from the city were filled with others f1eeing onfoot. My husband worked three days and three nights, carrying injuredand frightened people to the country. He also helped others remove thebodies of their loved ones. One man lost a family of nine.
Then came the big problem of burying the dead. The morgues were filledwith people trying to identify the dead or missing. A great many couldonly identify the bodies by means of a ring, or dental work, or apiece of clothing. Hundreds were buried who could not be identified,some near the victim of the Titanic disaster. The city was in such aturmoil, people were robbing the dead and looting the stores. Then thecity was placed under Martial Law.
We had no electric lights, only kerosene lamps in our house. We werenot allowed to go out at night, and food soon became a big problem asthere was shattered glass in everything. The stores were boarded upand business was at a standstill. We were sent supplies from theUnited States and sections of Canada, and stations were establishedwhere we could get the necessities. My younger brothers stood in lineat the armory where our station was located, and received the food weneeded, as we could not buy anything.
In a short time we got carloads of clothing, blankets, and everythingneeded to take care of the suffering and homeless. After things wereorganized, construction men were sent from upper Canada to buildhouses for the homeless, and if you had a room in your house thatcould be used, you had to take some of these men. We had two at ourhouse for a while. They built relief houses on the Common, as Halifaxhart a very large common. Hundreds Of houses were built and furnishedby the government. It also took care of losses such as homes andfurniture, and did everything possible to ease the suffering of thepeople, but the terrible scars were there for a long time. To thisday, a rumble of a Jet plane breaking the sound barrier will recall tome that day of horror.
I know Halifax will never forget World War I. Some of the veteransthere, who had spent considerable time overseas, said they never sawanything so horrible as that disaster.
During World War II, when I stood in line for butter and heard peoplecomplaining because they had to, I often thought how fortunate theywere to have nothing worse to complain about They never had to leavetheir home with just the clothes they had on, or had their homes blownto pieces, or visit the hospitals or morgues looking for loved ones.
Today the section of Halifax that looked like Flanders Field after theexplosion is built up with modern houses and again the City of Halifaxis a wonderful seaport, taking care of her shipping as. usual. Just ashort distance from where the ship blew up is a beautiful bridgeconnecting Halifax and Dartmouth, thus removing all scars that mightbe reminders of the terrible disaster experienced on that fatal day in1917 - that Day of Horror.

Text: Dear Friends:
It has been some time since I last wrote, so here I am again. i have
neglected so many personal letters as I have been waiting for my mail
to catch up to me before writing. So much has happened since I last
wrote that it seems like a dream, and if any one had told me beforhand
i would not have taken notice of what they had said. Of course I
cannot say all I would like to as the censor would cut it out, then I
do not want to give any information which might help the enemy.
This week i have received over one hundred pieces of mail, letters
cards and packages. It will take some time for me to answer them all,
so I am writing this for the time being, to thank all my friends who
sent the letters, cards and packages. I sure do appreciate their
kidness to me, and it was swell hearing from them all. Rest assured
that each one will get a personal letter back, just as soon as I can
write them all. I know it will take some time, as more mail is on the
way. let them come, i enjoy reading and answering them.
I am feeling much better now and soon will be myself again. It takes a
long time to gain back thirty-five pounds, but I found out you can
lose it very quickly. But I smiled through it all, and I am thankful
as well as lucky to be here today, I have God to thank for that, and
will do my best to show him I am thankful even if it takes a lifetime.
I have met several Natick boys in my travels and it sure was good to
see them all. Good old Salvi Arena was there showing them what the
Marines could do. Also, Gee mahoney, Henry Hall, Tom Halpin, and loads
of others from Natick. i said, "Gee I wish Casey's hot dog stand was
here." When I came here to the hosital I bumped into a South Natick
fellow who is stationed here, can't give the name now.
If I keep on, this will be too long and won't be printed so, I will
say good night and God bless you all. Keep smiling.
With good wishes Warren.

""PALS"
Four of us left Boston together.
Thoughts of us separating, never.
Charlie, Tom, Eddie and I.
To fight for Liberty or die.
We went to the city of San Diego;
But never did go to a USO.
Later we were all seperated, it's true,
But there was nothing we could do.
I've met several others since then.
I'm sorry to say, "No luck in keeping them."
Bill was drowned in a tropical land;
I almost sat down and cried in the sand.
Then there was Larry, a good Marine.
I hat to think of it, it seems a dream.
He was shot, accidentaly of course.
I felt like a rider, who loses his horse.
Clarence was shot on Guadalcanal.
When I saw him, I almost yelled.
I'd like to get the sniper who fired the shot.
He would wish he had never been caught!
I never forget old friends, it's true.
Living or dead, I never do.
May they rest in Heaven for EVER,
I will not forget them, NEVER.
