    A few days after the 1914-2-26 date written on this negative, West was appointed to the Senate. In November 1914 he returned to being a "planter and lumberman." In December 1914, he died.
  • Wystan said:
    In March 1914 the Governor of Georgia appointed West U. S. Senator, to fill out the unexpired term of Senator Augustus O. Bacon, who had died. West did not run for election to the office in November, 1914, and retired in that month after the election of a successor.) His death on December 22 was unexpected, as he had been in good health.

    In 1917, ten units of American Forestry Expedition Forces joined up with a group of Canadians to clear timberland in Northern Scotland. Among them were six men from Boxborough, MA, where I live.
