description This blank postcard was almost certainly collected by Paul C. Arnold during his military service in France from 1918 to 1919. The postcard shows a black and white image of a photograph of part of the Panthéon de la Guerre painting featuring British nurse Edith Cavell with a caption of "Miss Edith Cavell. Copyright by the Pantheon de la Guerre-1918", a second caption of "P. Carrier-Belleuse.", and a third caption of "A. F. Gorguet.". The White family has ties back to the Arnold family through Stella Arnold White. Arnold family siblings Stella Arnold White, Paul C. Arnold, Claud Arnold, and Ada Arnold Sides stayed in close contact throughout their adult lives. Stella Arnold White married Leonard H. White Sr., an inventor who started the Birmingham Fabricating Company. During the First World War, Paul Arnold served in the military with the American Expeditionary Forces and saw action in France. Leonard H. White Sr. also enlisted during the First World War but was not sent overseas.
