LETTER FROM JULIAN WHITE
TO HIS FATHER, J. W. WHITE.
Supply Company, 54th U. S. Infaantry
.. American Expeditionary (Forces. ..
& P. 0; 777.
September .
Dear Dad.
If you can spare me a few minutes
this morning, I will try to write yoj j.
? *arrr iinae wish t cnnlri make it a !
Qt "uvwi " * long
letter, but that is h?ird to write '
over here. About all we can say is j
that we are well and so far are in'
the best condition. Life is no joke
In this part of the country. We work j
hard, eat a little and sleep some.1
Some times the rest periods are short j
and we have to keep at it for long :
hours. That is all a part of the game,
for the supplies must keep moving
to the hoys in the trenches, or rather
I should say at the front.
Since reaching France, I have been
kent on the move. At times I do not?
stay more than two days in a place
I like that kind of life for it gives a
chance to see the country. At present
I am the roughest camp I have
struck. (May be here some time, then
I may move tomorrow. We have
shacks to live In, plenty to eat and
sufficient clothing. The weather Is
rough, which makes it a little unpleasant
at times. But taking everything
into co" 'ideration, we sLre faring niceiy.
I trust that ill are well at home
t get my mail pretty rcgu'nrly. so
? ?"v ?v.i
Can Keep up Willi wuai is ua^cuuis j
if the news is a moutii old when it i
reaches me. I do rot know whether ;
you hear trom me or not. Can only
fcope that you d->. I write as often as
I can, which is on an overage of
ebout once a week. Whether my let- I
ters are getting through, I do not j
know.
We felloes are all hoping the war
will soon be ovir, so we c^n f.et back
home. We dj nor. know hr.-w fcng.itj
will take, but we are confident of the j
-outcome and the Americans are con;- i

?no telling how long it would have ,
taken to get things settled if our gov- i
a ?ernment had not taken a hand. I am
of the opinion that we did not start
*ny too soon either.
Well things are beginning to nappen
here, so I must ibid you good-bye for
" this time.

Give my regards and love to Sarah

Awful In Greenville.
Taking note of the fact that the edito
of The Herald and News, after a
visit to Greenville, soid that the ambu
lances and hearses were going all
day on account of the deaths from
influenza prevailing in that city caus
ing a great many deaths, several sentences
of a letter from a lady in
Greenville to a relative here will b<?
in order. She says: "They did not
let it be known in Greenville how
alarming it was (or rather outside of
Greenville). Why, the doctors did not
begin to have time to see, or racher
visit, even one time, many who were
sick. Mr. was all day and into
the nisht trying to get his doctor to
come and see his sister, who was suffering
fearfully and with fever one
hundred and four degrees. When the
infhienza was raging here, there
would be nearly one hundred poor
soldiers' bodies at the undertakers
.at one time." This coincides with the
editor's statement that the day he was
there "there were dead at the morbus
of all the undertaking establishments/'
But we are glad to say that
the lady concludes: ^Well, it is better
now, and I hope the worst is over."
So do we.
Langford-Danner.
From a Beaufort paper.
A pretty, quiet wedding took placi
at 8 p. m. October 8, 1918, at the Baptist
parsonage when Miss (Marietta
Langford was married to Lieut. Harrj
Danner, with Rev. Rockwell of the
Baptist church offficiating. Only the
immediate relatives of the couph
were present during the ceremony
The bride was chaiming in a hand
some coat suit of Belgian blue, witl
jaunty hat to match, smart browi
snoes ana gioves ana suver-io* iars
The happy couple have gone to Nor
folk, Va., where :Mrs. ?anner wil
make her home for the present. He:
husband will be able to see her at th<
end of each week, as the vessel oz
.which he has been assigned for dut:
returns there weekly. ,

per fails to give every scrap of news,
if you are one of the people who

tion. An editor isn't a medium or a
mind reader tout he gets his news the
i . same way the mill?, man gets his milk,
by pumping. This is true especially
j of that class of items known as
| "personals." Rightly they are not
' j "puffy" or "taffy" but simple personal
j mention, given for the benefit of the
local readers, and if you have a friend
or relative visiting you, let us know

proper notice. IPut any t)it of news
