September 1, 1918.
Dear Sister and all:
I suppose you have often wondered
what happened to me because l have
MT written. Well, here l am in a
hospital in France Just getting over
a bad case of appendicitis. l am sit
ting up for the first time since the
operation, so ! am very weak yet
but l am gaining very fast. You can
see how my hand trembles from my
writing. I will be up and around
again in about a week, l hope. 1
would have been up long ago if it
had been an ordinary case but my
appendix broke and they had to put
in drains. They have taken them out
now and am getting along just fine.
] was in the trenches only a short
time when I was taken sick and
brought here. l am getting splendid
care so don't worry about me. The
Red Cross. nurses are simply wonder
full They do everything in the world
to make us comfortable and are al
ways on the job. Tell the folks at
home they can't possibly do enough
for the Red Cross. One can't realize
what it means until they are in a
position like mine.
1t is Sunday and the bells are ring
ing. The Chimes are beautiful. l
wish you could hear them and see
this country. 1t is sure some coun-
try.
/ hope dear Dad is in the best of.
health. Tell him to take good care
of himself and to write to me. I'd
just love to hear from him.
Where is Arthur? Be sure and tell
me as l want to write to him.
Is May home and is she going to
teach? hope she'll stay with you.
Does Aunt Marie talk of coming
out? Shed be lots of company for
you if she could be there this winter.
When you write tell her Hello.
suppose George has lots of money
saved by now Tell him to save it
and buy Liberty bonds. He'll need
it someday and Uncle Sam needs it
now.
l suppose the women there are all
working III the fields. l see by the
papers that they have big crop of
everything in that part of the country.
Who is working in my place in the'I
shop now? Listen, / want you to give
my very best regards to B. Morgan.
Call him up or see him. Whatever
you do don't neglect this as ! surely
do like B. and want him to know
that ! think of him often.
/ haven't had a letter from home
since / got the sweater, either. but
hope to soon and it will come in handy
as / will soon be back with my com
pany and I'll surely be glad to get
back, too. From the way things look
now we will all be home again soon.
| hope so. believe me.

now on and you write to me- Don't
worry about me as am all right now
