Becky Dirks Haugsted provided the images and Janet A. Brandt transcribed the text.

Clarence Moore was one of the National Army from Jones County who met death in battle on the western front of the great World War. He was born near Canton, Jones County, Iowa, and registered at Olin when the call was issued for the first registration. He was sent to Camp Dodge for training in September, 1917, and later went overseas and was killed in battle on October 6, 1918. He has relatives living near Canton and also at Olin. Private Moore was married but we have not a complete biographical sketch of his family. He was well and favorably known in the community where he was raised and his services in the war leaves rich heritage of memory to them and an example of willing sacrifice which is useful to all Americans.
