necessary for ali members to send in

I was in battle November 10 and

day and heard the last shot fired on
the front. l thought my time was to
come at any moment, but the Lord
was with nae and didn't get even d
scratch. When l went into battle, l
asked God to take through and he
did, and after it was over, | thanked
Him for it. We went through some
awful shell fire the morning of the
18th. They stopped firing the llth
month, 18th day and the 18th hour,
and there were many proud soldiers.

see you and l hope to be h ONE some
SINE in the near future, time enough
to start my farm again. l was sorry
to hear Johnnie had left US. 1t wont
. seem like, the same place, although
was glad to hear Mrs. Prince and
Abbie would rent the place from him.
i hope Johnnie will have good luck
but am afraid he has made bad
Move. He had better stayed on the
farm, for it is the life to live in the
world
1 suppose Papa must be having a
time with Cepers, Johnnie and my
self both away, but tell him the good
Lord is going to bring me back to
him before long, and the next time l
go. it will be as itswas this time, do
not think l vii! volunteer, while l
don't regret going and doing my
duty, and would do so if necessary.
There is not very much sickness
over here now. am glad you receiv-
ed my money. l began to think it was
lost. Save me some Christmas cake,
for I will be glad to get it when | get
home.
Tell Aunt Carrie that Tom is all
o. K. too after the battle, and give
them and Grandpa my love. There is
no one can tell how tough is was but
those who were in it, for was in the
thickest of the fight. l will write to
Papa and Lila tomorrow.
My love to all, ndNtell them l am
living, thank God.
Your son in France,
Georpe Delauphter.
