Newark evening star and Newark advertiser., 1914-12-05

have not received a scratch in the
greatest conflict the world has ever
seen. Many rumors of the death OF
cyclists have been circulated, but in
the majority of instances they are
false, as I have personally seen most
of those who have been reported
dead. Comes, Poulain, Faber, Perchi-
cot, Lapize, Thys, Friol, Petit
Breton, Trousselier, r. Cost, the six
day manager and DeVoissaex are
alive and well and l have seen them
all during the past two weeks.
Boillot, the famous automobile
driver, is attached to the general
headquarters with me.
You would afford me great pleasure
Is going on in cycling. Give my best
regards to all my comrades and tell
them how lucky they are that they
are not over here. With best wishes.
