BROWNSVILLE. Gas Aug. 10
ThOmasville has a large number OF
darkies now with the armies in France
and one and all they seem to be highly
pleased with the country over there"
4 letter just received from one OF them
by his former employer here says:
This mere somewhere in France is
shO' er pretty place an it all looks
mighty good to me. but / wish YOU was
here to help me know this here French
talk and what these people IS sayin'."
Some of the white men write back
of what fine soldiers the ncgoes fromI
the south are making. but it is with the
LayOnet that they fight best; they DO NOT
seem to care much for shooting. Many
of them have their raZors along and
know all about how TO use them in a
hand-to-hand fight. that sort of warfare
making them feel at home.
