Treadway, 307th infantry, is where ‘he can hear the shrapnel and bullets wh he writes in a letter to his mother here as follows: Somewhere in France. May 21st, Co. E, 1918. Dear Mother:— T received your most welcome letter, the last one you wrote to Camp Upton, and was pleased to hear from vou. Well, I am’in good health and getting along good. I am in a different place now than I was' when I last wrote to you from France. It is very hot here and is considerable hotter than the last place we were in, and you don't have to pray for rain. This is sunny France, and you get some lovely bou- quets that burst in the air occasionally to let you know that there is war on. I heard an artillery barrage the other night for about 15 minutes that would raise the bristies off a pig's back. Old Jerry was coming over the top, but he got back faster than he came out. Back in the states you hear him called Fritz, but the Sammies call him Jer- ry, and Jerry is a tough cuss, believe me. Not lonig ago one night I was in a place where he was in the air and you.could hear the motors drumming from his aeroplanes, and after being stuck alongside of a hedge by the side of the road. He dropped three bombs and there - were three terrific explo- sions. 1 though the bottom of h— had fallen out. and the anti-aircraft guns put up a harrage for about five min- utes and the air was full of shrapnel h That's all you could hear, No they paid a visit out to the plains that Sunday night I left. but they lost Well, I might meet some of the and bullets. out. boys frem Norwick over here some- where. 1 guess it is probabie that Pat Murpby is over here with his outfit.

They have -been putting a few shells in this town this afternoon, Edna. Tt is all right to see them land and burst so long as they don’t hurt any of our bovs. Seme days the Bosche shoot rheir guns a wvery lit- tle and some days they, shoot very often. Today is a pretty active one. On such days I often wish I was home with my Jittle sister instead of here, but here T am, and I think' T must. stay until the durn war.is over, EdWa. Then won't T be happy to see my little sister. You tell dad the hovs here do farm- ing. even if they are soldiers. There is an American government farm, Edna, and the bovs who are not very well zet those jobs, for it ix a good healthy place to be. Well. Edna, I will close now. and T wish vou zood' health and luck, and love to all the family.
