 answering your loving letter received this morning. Here it is two months since I received a letter from home. The mail was two months late so it got me worrying, but at last I got one. Believe me, there surely is some thing doing here. I am now in a tent and the shells are falling about 50 yards from me, but they say that it is safe to sleep in tents, so if you do not think that is taking some chance come and try it for a month or SO. Noise. you cannot sleep, day or night, for two weeks. After that we go back and have what we call a rest, sleep days and work under shellfre all night, and then back into the front line for another few days. When I say rest it sure is just that. We got a lot of work and other boys say we are going back home soon. The Boche cannot stand this much longer sure do not know where they all are com ing from. They come in Nc Mans Land like bees. and none go back. The next night more come each and every night. They come, but very few go
