late on the day we left Sharp coun.
ty missed the train and was sent
down the next morning by myself
| was lodged at camp the next
night by myself, and had just got
in bed, or rather on a pallet, with
my bundle that had been issued
me for a pillow, when | heard
something that sounded as if the
camp was tearing to pieces. Then
about 800 Kansas boys came in,
and | have been with them ever
since.
We were in quarantine for four
teen days at first, then moved out
in tents, where we stayed a couple
of nights. Then we we're moved
again and have been in quaran-
tine for measles the rest of the
time. Some of the boys think it is
rather hard to be in quarantine
and thought they would leave out
for a few hours. And sure enough,
they did Get out for fifteen days in
the guard house on no pay. So
you can see one of the best things
to do here is not to break quaran"
tine.
Things are busy down here, You
can look any direction and see men
and hear the words "one, two, three,
four" We are glad to get to take a
hike, so we can see something
new.
