Mrs Elmer Ellis of Main street re-
ceived the following letter from her son.
Henry Carter, who is in Co. II. load T.
S. Inf:
July r. 1918.
Dear Mother: I thought l would write
you a few lines as l have not done so
for long time Well, am in the hos
pital lightly gassed. but don's worry
about me. l am all right, in good
place and the best of care. Have been
over the top and held them on the coun-
ter attack. You ought to see the Dutch
men run when they see US after them.
We took them by surprise. You ought
to hear them holler "kamarad;' and we
did not do a thing TO them. There was
one old man about 80. He said we were
American devils and we took him for
sauvenir. They are more afraid of US
than any other army now It's great
sport to shoot and capture the bosche.
There is big drive on now-you will
read about it--and we are the drivers,
and we are going to get them sooner
or later, you bet The drive is between
the French and us. How are YOU ana
the rest of the folks? Hope you are
we'll and getting along fine. That is
the main thing. Well, cant think of
anything else to write, so to make my
letter short will close with love and
best wishes from YOUR son.
HENRY CARTER.

My dear Mother:
Will drop you a line to let you

company. have been transferred to
the Headquarters troop. 1st army. 1t
is a good job and l will not have to
20 in the lines. But still ! am going
back to the 26th if there is any
chance. / got gassed and it affected
my lungs. So they will not let me
go in the line, but still l am all right.
There has been some very hard
fighting and my outfit was in it.
You remember Ralph Hosmer, well
he got killed and some others, l can
not tell you how many. l tell you
the 26th has done some hard fighting
and a lot of it, You have probably
heard brother Bernard was wounded
but do not worry. 1t was not bad
one, and he was shell shocked also, so
they will not let him go back to the
lines. l guess this war is about over
and | will be some glad. How are
things in the L. S. A? Have not
sot any mail for two months, on ac-
count of being in the hospital. Well,
dear mother. do not worry about US
whatever you do, because it won't do
apv good. Keep up courage and both
of us will be back just as soon as this
darn old war is over. VIII close
