The following interesting letter
was received last week by Rev. Mr..
Nelson:
Denver, Colo. July "a, 1917.
DEAR Mr.. NELSON:
received your letter today and
was very glad to hear from you.
We are getting along fine out here
now, but it was pretty tough at first
as they weren't expecting us quite so
soon and weren't fixed to accommo-
date so many men. There was only
one troop here when we came but
there are about 1000 men now.
They don't overwork us at all, as
we only drill four or five hours daily
and have plenty of time to read,
write or study.
1 enjoy it very much as it is all
new and interesting and is splendid
physical training for any one.
am sorry to hear that you were
too late to get in as chaplin of this
troop. The Y. NJ. G. A. have put up
a large tent here and had services
Sunday evening. but Gilbert and !
were on guard duty and didn't get to
go.
We went down town Friday eve
ming and took good swim at the Y.
NJ. c. A. building, and then took In a
good show. think Denver is very
pretty place.
We are going to be vaccinated to-
morrow, and expect to take the
Federal examination soon after. The
papers state that it will be very
rigid examination and If so a great
many will probably be rejected rs
the first examination was not very
thorough.
Gilbert failed to pass the examina-
ton at Meeker but didn't know it till
we got to Rifle, and then decided to
come on and try this one. The ones
that pass will be mustered into the
Federal service right away, and &C
cording to present calculations will
leave here about August 10.
1t has been awfuliy hot and dry
out here but has ciouded up now and
Is beginning to sprinkle. How Ia
