Joseph Northup

Joseph Northup, Chippewa.  Duluth, Minnesota. Citizen. Enlisted January 14, 1918 in Duluth, Minnesota.

Had to sell what little land we had left to pay some of our bills made while I was in Service, and moved into Duluth where I now work. While some cowards were making over two hundred dollars a month in shipyards, I was doing guard duty at $90 per month and paying rent for home for wife and three children. Was man enough to enlist not drafted.
