Mr.. and Mrs B. C. Hoyt recently
received a letter from their son Ralph

caused by too long standing in the
mud which where he was stationed
was knee deep. He is now guarding
Boche prisoners on one of the large

with several of the prisoners and
states that everything related by the
press is true as regards the German

ty of the American forces.
