Dear Joe:-Tho l am sure you have
censored me severely for not having
answered your letter sooner please let
me assure you that it was not lack of
desire. Have been back only q few
days from my furlough, which trip
carried me to many of Frances beauti-

q day or so before left. and you know
how almost impossible it is for one to
attempt to write while travelling.
Have just finished a letter to Mrs.
Lipscomb, in which have attempted
to write of her darling boys last days.
Joe, it is so terribly hard to comfort a
mother who mourns the loss OF dear
boy, but have done my utmost that
my words might be of solace. | thank
you very kindly for sending her adj
dress, and assure you that it was the
least l could do. to write to mother
who had given her own flesh and blood
that Democracy might live. .

nearly every one of our nurses, doctors
and enlisted men knew him and adj
mired him for his wonderful spirit and
character. l remember distinctly OF
having stood by his bed and watch the
surgeon dress his wounds, and tho the
operation was very painful one the
ever present smile never failed tc
