Long Local List of Wounded With Only A Few Dead (1918)

Wounded during World War I. "Private Charles Kahrar, of Company M, 309th Infantry, was wounded and gassed October 16 and was also wounded once before that date. His home is at 3186 Boulevard, Jersey City Heights, but he lived at 104 Paterson street when drafted last April. He is 24 years old; was born in Jersey City; graduated from No. 25 School and was employed by the Adams Express before he entered the army. His mother is dead, but he has a father, Charles Kahrar, Sr., and four sisters, Anna, Charlotte, Marie and Margaret. Letters from him dated early this month indicate that he will soon be home. His sister Anna's husband, Corporal Cancalosi, is also in France, where he was gassed and later attacked by the "flu." He is a former Grove street boy. A letter received a few days ago by his wife, is to the effect that he was then recovering and expected soon to be home. Corporal Cancalosi was married just a month before going to France from Fort Hancock. He was employed as a stenographer by the Erie and is well known in the "Shoe" and at East Rutherford, where his father conducts a hotel."
