a letter from a brother who is serving
in the British army now fighting in
the trenches before Verdun, France.
The letter is dated at Verdun April

tents removed. Two picture postals
had also been extracted and are now
being held in England but the censor
inclosed u note stating the missing
parts will be forwarded to Mrs.
Danielson as soon as the war ceases.

several cousins in the army. Just
where they are is not known. So far
as known none of them have been
wounded or killed. The last heard
from them prior to the letter at
hand was in early February. 1t is

Mrs. Danielson intends sending fol-
the missing parts of the letter from
her brother as soon as the war is
