From Corp. Willard M. Seaman,

From Corp. Willard Nj. Seaman.
Mrs Susie Seaman received the following let
ter from her son Willard in France under date
of November Is.
Today has been rather cold and the
boys were all trying to find warm
place. The French gave US a day off
to celebrate the signing of the Armis
tice and the best part was pay day fell
on the same day. l went to a neigh
boring town with a big number of the
boys and being an annual habit to pre-
pare for Christmas but the majority Of
the folks really don't expect much
from the boys except their best wishes
and an early return. | really expect
to get back to the States this winter Or
early spring. The news in the daily
papers reads very favorable as to our
early return and I know everybody
will surely give US a hearty welcome
when we march down the gang plank.
Yesterday about 100 out of about 1855
men from our company went in trucks
to near by city that I have mentioned
in my letters last summer and marched
in formation to special high mass es-
pecially for the Allied soldiers in very
old cathedral. The sermon was in
French but it was very interesting. The
priest mentioned about the war from
beginning to end. I was lucky enough
to have the sermon translated for me
after we were out of doors.
