"Surely, such a seed should flmirl-.li

MAN WHO FOUGHT IN INDIA
TWENTY YEARS AGO ENLISTS
jonn llancox, Late ot the
Prince Consort's Own, Signs
-Up Again at 48
Born of Soldier Father and
Won Medal Chasing Af
ghans Off Himalayas '
JOH.V HANCOX. late of ihe Third
Battalion Rifle BrlRade nf the Prince
Consort's Own, and forty-eipht years
old. Is "Koine over."
He has enlisted" at the British Tecrult
lnjr station at Sixteenth and Chestnut
streets, and after fourteen cars of a
more or less peaceful existence In Amer
ica will feel his roverelun's unform on
his back again
Hancox Is jubilant. Tils personal be
lief Is that he has a larpe measure of
flBht In him still that midht be ued to
the advantage nf his country and In his
own satisfaction In elfrWnatiniz several
Bodies : and so he has signed up for the
Canadian forces.
Hancox is used to the smell of gun-pow-der
; a round silver medal, about "the
size of a half-a-dollar and hearing the
Impress nf the head of Queen Victoria
bears witness to this fact, and gives fair
promise that he will leave his mark ,
where it will do the most good when he
gets within reach of the Germans
He Is a small man. with a drooping
sandy mustache and snapping blue, eyes
Father a Soldier, Too
He was born In India when his father
& soldier, too, was serving In the a.'aiy
Hancox was twenty-eight years ojd
when he was fighting on the peaks of the
Himalayas. His regiment was sent '.o
follow up one that had been hacked to
pieces by the Afghans
Hancox knows very well that Sher
man was entirely right, except that he
himself could add a few picturesque
embellishments to that brief remark.
He knows what it Is to march endless
weary miles, with the brown dust rasp
ing the throat like particles of Iron rust,
with the sun beating down at the rate
of 118 degrees and eyes aching. He
known what it Is ; he was up apalnst a
sneaking enemy then, too, and there Is
something about that kind that makes
fighting a real pleasure
Hancox did not express himself flu
ently, nor did he give any accurate
analysis of just what Ideals and emo
tions had suddenly turned him away
from the Job he has been holding with
the transit company and Into the Brit
ish recruiting booth.
But after a brokeji, Incoherent ac
count of his early battles and honors
ihe looked up. His fingers were resting
, on the shiny medal with Queen Vic
torias neaa on 11 iur vmor vvmen ne
had laid away carefully In a little black
box. His eyes snapped.

' "I'd think that If an old fellow like
lme can feel like this, and want to go
back, and know I ought to go back,
and all that, I'd think there's a lot ot
