Mr.. N. L. Miller, Ed. Times-RecOrd,
J jennings, La.
Dear sir and friend:
intended writing you ere this but
since NC return home have been GA
the constant 20, therefore will now
: sequest that you give me few min
utes of your time to explain why the
boys that are known all over the
country as the Jennings Cavalry
needs a Ford truck and I am sure
that the people of Jennings will fur
nish them one in a very snort time.
When the troop arrived m New Or
leans they Immediately went on
guard duty and at one time a squad
was detailed at Wesswego, one III
Carrolton, and Fort Chalmette, others
at the cotton mill You can see that
the troop men was not only from one
end Of the city to the other but had
some across. Some of these men
stayed out over eight and ten days.
Provision had to be sent each and
every camp and it is real slow, be-
sides feed stuff had to be sent out.
While the men were bringing this
stuff it left them without a wagon in
camp. If they would have a truck
all this could be attended to in a
short time and also would have a way
to go from camp to the city and
when camp is broken to be moved the
boys could accomplish this in one
fifth Of the time. When ] left the
troop they hired an extra wagon
There is nothing that the troop is
IN need of as bad as a Ford truck
and If there is anything that I can
do to assist them in securing one ]
will be glad for you to call upon me.
With one of these trucks two men
can do the work that it takes six or
eight at present. 1t would not only
give the boys a greater rest but will
furnish them with necessities at a
very short time.
With best wishes, hoping that l
can be of some service in assisting
you in obtaining the truck for the
ones who will uphold the honor Of
our country and to them that I am
sure will make every heart feel proud
to know that they have such men to
represent them as those who compose
the Jennings Cavalry
Yours very truly,

the same point OF view as those en-
gagged in the struggle he said:
president Wilson's speech had
this aim, to gain peace now and Sc
cure peace for the future. That is
our aim, and our only aim. He hop
ed to secure this by league of peace
and he not only spoke in favor of
such a league, but he is trying to
induce the American senate to take
the steps necessary to give effect to
it, 1t would not be right to regard
this proposal as something altogeth-
er Utopian.
"You know that almost up to our
own day duelling continued, and just
as the settling of private disputes by
the sword has now become unthink-
able, so, l think, we may hope that
the time will come when all the ma
lions of the world will play the part
which Cromwell described as his life
work-to act as constable and keep
peace. That time will come, l hope.
"Our aim is the same as Presi-
dent Wilson's. What he is longing
for we are fighting for Our sons
and brothers are risking their lives
for it, and we mean to secure it.
The hearts of the people of this coun-
try are longing for peace; we are
praying for peace, for a peace which
will bring back to us in safety those
who are fighting our battles, and a
peace which will mean that those
who will not come back have not laid
down their lives in vain"
