Dear Aunt and Uncle: Just a few lines to let you know 1 received your \last letter. I think the first letter you wrote went astray as I do not remember get- ting it. I am enjoying good health and hope to continue so for some time to come. Uncle Sam’s doctors certainly are taking good care of us. I am wonder- ing what kind of an Easter you had back in the U. S. A. I'll bet there was a difference. Just listen to this while T describe it to vou. The weather was bad, as it rained early in the morn- ing and was cloudy all day. We had no eggs for breakfast. but there was plen- shells flying around. I started i ‘curth of July instead of Faster. One could hear something come along over their head and whistling, “The Watch on the Rhine."* The answer would be “We'll wind up the Watch on the Rhine” T have often heard of earthquakes and wondered what they were like dinner, including turkey and other good things. We are having the same weather we always get over here that is plenty .of rain with very little sun- sh'ne. T received the Christmas present: from Ruth and Andrew after a delay of more than two months. I guess I rectived all the packages as I have received quite a number. I sent you a picture of myself about the first of the vear, hope You received it alright. Will have to close as I have run out of news, so will say goodble for this- time. Give my hest regards to all. ROBERT S. CHAPMAN, Co. D, 9th Inf., A. E. F, France. DANIEL BRCWN IS TRAINING NEW SEAMEN Neorwich Young Man is Instructor in Navication at Tampa.

CLAIM GROUNDS FOR SETTING ASIDE VERDICT Attorreys For Douglas, Inc., File Mo- tion in the Superior Court. Attorneys for H. R.
