of that which writers like to write about
L have seen some very pitiful sights
such as that of field of dead and dying
soldiers. Men from slightly to being
MORALLY wounded All this was pitiful
very pitiful, indeed This, however, was
by no manner or means as pitiful as that
which | witnessed the day we came up
to do that which we left the United
States and travelled over four thousand
miles to do.
You know already what it was it was
the sight of the civil population of
France fleeing toward the interior from
the Huns
These people consisted of very old
men and women, most of whom were
unable to walk, but obliged to do so
due to the very limited means of trans
portation. Women with babies in their
arms and young children were no more
fortunate than their grandmothers and
fathers, and so had to trudge YEARLY
along the dusty roads, which were I'M
usually hot and dusty, giving away to
the side of the road constantly SO as not
to obstruct the passage of cavalry, artil-
lery, caravans of troops and supplies
which were being fastened forward.
The household effects of these people,
which frop
every manner and means, ranging from
baby buggy or wheelbarrow, pushed
by an old person or child, to that of
CANNES, which hawled extremely large
loads, on their way back for more troops
During the entire day which I saw
these homeless refugees (and I saw
thousands of them) making their way
along the road, not one did I see with
tears in their eyes, No, not one. They
were over that stage and each and
every one of them carried an expression
of firm resolve to do his or her best to
make the best of their situation, and
they did.
There was just one thing which we
wanted to do by the time we arrived
here, and l guess the newspapers will |
bear me out as to whether or not we did |
that which we so desired
1t is my opinion that from now on all
the fleeing which is done will be done
by 'Heinie's' father, mother, wife, sis
ters, brothers, and little children Then
is when his murderous acts will be
brought home to him No doubt the
Germans have begun to see the hand
writing on the WALL They are damn
blind if they have not.
DO you remember the razor which
you sold to me? Well, it is some faith
ul standby. I would not sell it for
