This includes all the casualties that the

are great many sick and worn down by
the exposures they have and are constantly
receiving. A little rest and change of diet
is what they most need at the present time.
We are waiting anxiously for those rein
fOrcements that arc soon TO be drafted. We
hope Uncle Abe will bring them ell along ii
he needs them. and let them have taste of
the soldiers lifo. Yours truly,
