Dear folks at hcme:
now take time to answer your
letters which received few days
age. was very glad to hear you
were well as this leaves mo feeling
fine.
J. havn't heard anything from
Charlie since I came over here. l
wish as soon as you hear yol would
let me know.
I was surely sorry to hear about
Ray. Yet there Is no greater cause
a man could give his life for. I wish
I was as sure of salvation in the
hereafter as one who gives his life
in the great cause for which Uncle
Sam has been fighting. His folks
should be very proud of him and we
want them to feel that we are.
Arden and l are in the Y. M. G. A..
He is writing home also. Sunday is
about the only time we get to write
President Wilson landed here in
Brest Friday and General Persling
came here and n1et him. The Eighth
infantry went down to the docks as
guards. There were fourteen cars
in the presidents party. Guards
were strung on both sides of the road
about three steps apart. I got very
good view of the president and he
looks just the same as he did the last
time / saw him; just as he does in
his pictures. He surely has very
cheerful smile. Brest was decorated
with signs all over in honor of the
president. ...
We went down town yesterday to
have picture taken of our company
and when We got there we stood for
an hour and man looked out of a
three-story building and painted our
picture. I don't know how it will be
but have an idea it awill be a great
deal like mud fence, or little dob

written to the parents:
Evacuation Hospital, Nov. 20, 1918
Dear mother and father:
l will now take time to let you
know | am well and hope these few
lines find you the same.
Well, today is the day we give our
thanks to God for the great blessings
We are receiving. I sure see where
there are great many things to be
thankful for today, and believe all
the A. e. F. feel the same as I do,
and ! know the people at home do as
well. You have no idea how the boys
feel since the armistice was signed.
OF course that means peace.
You see was in a position to see
how things were and know that when
Germany submitted to an armistice
she could no longer resist our forces
which were pushing her steadily to
utter ruin or defeat and she preferred
the latter. Therefore, that meant
peace unconditional. When I told
you some three months ago I would
eat Christmas dinner / didn't know
and doubt yet, but 1t is still possible.
But ! had everything worked out in
my own way and my Judgment served
me very well for once.
I am feeling fine now. You may
think that because I'm at the hospi-
tai that am sick, but not so, for
feel fine. So please do not worry,
but think Of the glorious time when
shall return. The sooner the bet
ter.
There was service at the Red
Cross today conducted by the chap
