Letter From Ralph Graves
to Friends Here.

"The boat that we came over on

This was the only mention made con-
corning the sinking OF the Tuscania in
a letter received here yesterday from
R3lph Graves. a former university stu
dent who was on the Inflated boat.
The letter was sent to the Iota Nj,
fraternity Of which Graves was a men,
bef and states that Leo Stewart, also
former university student, was
saved
Graves Is now In a hospital with
the mumps. Although the place where
he Is Is not mentioned in the letter.
1t appears that he is some where in
Ireland.
The strict censorship rules probably
prohibited him from saying anything
further concerning the torpedoing OF
the Tuscania. Graves and stewart
enlisted last fall in the Twentieth En-
gineers and for long time were
stationed at Washington, d. c.. be-
fore being sent across the Atlantic.
