LETTER FROM C. L. DUNCAN TO
HIS WIFE.
Somewhere in France,
November 26. 1918.
My Dearest Wife: Will take tlie
greatest of pleasure this rainy day tc
drop you a few lines to let you heai
from me. Also fn answer to yours re
ceived yesterday. More than glad t<
hear from the little girl and to know
that you are in good health. This
leaves me doing fine at this date. II
did look at one time that I woulc
never get a letter from you all again
for I left the company at the from
on the morning of the 7th of Octobei
for hospital and just got back to the
company November *25th, and, gee. ]
was glad to* get back with the boys
The whole time I was away I didn't
hear from any of you all. but when 1
got back to the company I had lots%oi
mail, and I sure did enjoy them, the
cne from you, anyway. Say, we have
quit fighting over here now and I don't
think it will be long before the boys
y who are left have the pleasure of being
home with the loved ones. The
fastest boat that ever sailed will be
too slow for me going home, you bet.
The Germans tried so hard to get me,
but by luck and God being with me I
am glad to say that I am still here not
hurt at all, although they got me
with his mustard gas, but as the old
snake in the spring time I peeled off
my old skin and got a new one ready
to go any time for the Huns again.
The Huns are good scrappers, but the
stuff that Uncle Sam pnts out, they
cant stand it, for the Tanks know
Ch
I still have
and White
need, come 1

That Always Treats
\
anywhere and everywhere since I
have been in dear old Prance, for
I've slept in cradles,
I've slept in arms.
I was a baby then,
Unconscious of war's alarms.
I've slept on the prairie.
Shooting the duck and the goose,
I've slept in the bush,
Hunting the elk and the moose.
I've slept on steamboats,
With my bed on the deck.
And I've slept in church
With a kink in my neck.
I've slept in fields,
Under the stars.
And I've slept on trains,
In old box cars.
['ve slept in bed
Of purple and gold,
I've slept out in Flanders
In the mud and the cold.
I've slept in dug outs,
With the rat and the louse
And I've slept in France,
In a fairly good house.
?
I've slept in barns
On beds of straw,
I've slept in sheds
With no bed at all.
I'm sleeping now
On a stretcher of wire
And I pray my last sleep
Will be near a fire.
I'm tired of thfe wet,
The mad and the cold
And I won't be sorry
When I sleep in the fold.
a
Well, Mattie, I am so lazy and I
don't know whether Mr. Censor will
pass this or not, and guess you "are
tired of reading such scratching. Will
close for this time. With a heart full
of love, I am,
Yours alone,
Callie.
