Dear Folks:
Well this is Sunday and it is rain
ing here little. 1t was very warm
yesterday but no warmer than at
home, and the nights are COOL so we
sleep we'll We are having goods
leafs" here. We get up at 5.15 every
morning except Sunday when we get
up at 6.15. Have breakfast at 6 and
Sundays at T. dinner at 1900 and sup
per at $3.50.
I am full-fledged soldier now-I
got my suit this forenoon We got one
pair shoes, four pair socks, two pair
drawers, three undershirts, one pair
pants, one shirt, comb and brush,
soap and cloth bag to keep your
clothes in. Just fifty of the men got
their outfits this morning, and some
more will go up this afternoon.
This is big camp, and Camp Dodge
is small compared to it. There are
three camps in all, and the part we
are in is the newest. 1t is scattered
all over and is about Is miles square.
This is where, a great battle was
fought during the Civil War, and
there are lots of old cannon around,
and monuments to the generals and
captains. You can see where trees
have been shot off, and some of the
bullets are in the trees yet When |
get out Of quarantine, am going to
go through the park.
Yesterday hauled coal, but it was
not very hard as they were small
loads and there were two Or three of
us to wagon. We went about seven
miles after it. saw some German
prisoners who were shoveling coal.
guess this will be all for the pres
ent. have changed my address so
you can tell anyone who wants to

Dear Folks:
1 Have few minute\ to spare now
Am only few miles away from where
| wrote you last. You have heard OF
the stone wall the Germans ran ur
against--well, that is where we are
stationed.
| You do not think much of your
clothes in this country. You hear a
shell coming and the next thing you
know you are. lying flat in mud or
water because the closer you hug the
ground, the better off you are. sure
can hit Mother Earth hard and fast
now. hear it's reported shell hit
at my feet and didn't explode. Don't
know about that, but have been knock

you had sat in bag of flour. had to

why the first wasn't good, but you'll
get it all in one big check soon.
Worked all night on reserve trench
es and missed breakfast and dinner
so you see had good sleep.
Didn't get to finish this so will now
for more reason than one. Have a
little slip to go with this that will
cause you to go down in your pocket
for little money, but l need the
cigarettes. At present we are not able
to get any and everybody is about
crazy for want of tobacco u z
was here l could have looked him up
because the 23rd Engineers relieved
the sector we just left / maybe able
to see Omer Murray. He is in the
32nd Division just back of us.
Last night at 2 o'clock the gas alarm
was given, but no gas-must have been
casing some close batteries. It's fun
ny about this gas alarm. You never
have to cali anyone twice but other
times it is hard to get us all up at
once.
We just received carload of home
papers. First ones for 8 months. Sure
seemed good. They have us all doped
out wrong about May 9th battle, but
they write such good stuff, we will let
it 60 at that.
Raining tonight SO can sleep sound
with no fear of gas as long as it
rains. One good thing for me, / have
seen some of the effects.
