The following letter was received
by the Woman's Relief Corps from
Henry Clay Laub. thanking them for
the comfort kit which they gave him
when he left for service. Henry is in
the navy and is stationed near San
Francisco at present, and the letter
below gives good description OF the
island where he is located.
Wednesday. Sept. 4, 1918.
Dear Ladies' of the w. r. C.:
l wish to thank you for the KIT given
me before / left.
Several of the fellows are rather sor-
ry, they have none. There is not much
danger of damaging ones clothes here
but | have had two occasions to use the
needle and thread.
[ suppose YOU would like to hear some
thing of the camp. Goat Island has. an
area of two square miles, should judge.
We are in detention camp and are not
about forty acres. The whole island is
like the peaks of one large and one small
mountain standing out of the bay. The
crest of the large peak must be thou
sand feet from the water, and the oth-
Ter about half as high.
Most of the boys were very much dis
appointed with this part of California
There are no flowers here the sun rarely
\
fog clouds at four. The only flowers
have seen here are the same as the house
plants around Denison. There are many
palms around the lower barracks. AT
evening and morning the breeze from
the bay is so chilly most of the men
wear their p coats. These coats are the
same as mackinaws. Until one becomes
|acclimated the weather is very severe
with him. | was all ofs two weeks get
ting used to the rapid changes during
the day.
The food is good and we get all we
can eat. The meals, however, are like
those at some boarding houses, when
you eat there for seven days you know
what each meal will consist Of the cor
responding day the next week. The
cooking probably isn't as good as at
home but by the time wet set to eat it
certainly is good.
Our company has had only six or eight
hours drill, that was week before last
Last week and this week we have been
making new drill grounds and working
around the officers quarters.
l am off tWenty-four hours for letting
the doctors have about pint of blood
this noon. l never had such queer
feeling as towards the last. l don't feel
altogether right yet.
Thanking you again for the kit, l am
