Letter From Lieut.. Nelson

Mt. Clemens, Mich, Aug 9, '1s
Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. Stableford,
Yale, Michigan
Dear friends,-Had a safe arrival
and again back in the office, it seems
rather a miracle after that wild adven-
ture of ours,
Everything about the same as usual
down here. The first few reports Of
our accident were that we both were
killed, and soon after it was just the
Lieutenant that was killed and that
was seriously wounded, so you see ru.
mors are as bad here as they are in
Yale.
wish to express my most sincere
appreciation for the kindness you have
shown toward me during my stay in
Yale, also please thank the Red Cross
Workers for their efforts towards max.
ing everything SO pleasant for US.
am sure l will never forget the kind
ness we were shown up there and we
surely couldn't have been treated any
better in the whole little old u. s. and
L am quite convinced that it was
through the fine treatment we received
that We we're brought on our feet so
soon again.
Major Wilson said he had called you
on the phone and already knew condi-
tions and that 1t Prosser would stay
up there until the first part of next
week.
Headquarters had written 1t. Pros
ser's folks letter, of which there is a
copy enclosed, so that the Lieut.. can
act as he sees fit on it. Nearly everyone
is asking how the Lieut.. is, and think
haye repeated the same story about a
million times. Will write again soon
as Pm quite tired this eve and will also
return your bag soon, as it doesn't take
the boys long to clean up on the apples
Sincerely yours,
Il. l.. Nelson.

Estimated At Two and a
Half Million

KANSAS CITY, April 5.-Blacken,
ed, smoking skeletons of what have
been huge buildings are all that re.
main today OF three icty blocks in
the wholesale district of this city as
the result of a mysterious fire which
occurred last night. The flames de
stroyed eighteen business houses
and damaged many others. The to-
tai loss is estimated at two and a
half millions. The origin of the fire
has not yet been determined but il
is thought TO be inccndiary. The en-.
tire Kansas City department was used
TO combat the flames. even greater
loss being warded off by their siren.
uOus work and the fact that no wind
was blowing. Most OF the loss was
covered by adequate insurance. The
flames became so terrifically hot that
1t was difficult for the fircmcn 10
successfully combat them but great
heroism was displayed by the mem
bcrs Of the department. Most Of the
buildings We're brick and offered re.
sistancc 10 the flames. Investigation
is today being made into the causes
