ROBERT LENHART I Writes Interesting Letter of * Trip to Camp Dodge— 1 Salt Lake Valley. I < HEAD-ON COLLISION — ■ < Second Section of Troop Train Telescopes First 1 —Three KilledBob Lenhart writes to his sister, , Miss Artie Lenhart: Passing thru Salt Lake Valley, , November 10, 1917, - Via D. & R. G. out of , Salt Lake city. , D-ar Little Sis: Well, we’re on our way, with a four , day’s trip ahead of us. We should , strike Des Moines and Camp Dodge , about Wednesday noon, if all goes well. I thought I would jot down a few , small items of interest as we rambled along, so here goes. We entrained about half past five this evening, and had supper soon after we started. We are in sleepers too, and its about time to pull down the upper berths, so I will wait till tomorrow and then write some more. I had no idea it was so near time for lights out, for you see we retire according to regulations the same as tn camp or barracks, Sunday morning, Grant Junction, Colorado. Well, we rambled some last night, and crossed the line into Colorado early this morning. This is a hard looking country we’re passing through now, consisting of desert and low hills, with a small town in the midst of a few square miles of irrigated land here and there along the line. We’ve been stopping here about a half hour, but of course we can’t leave our coaches. Never the less. Douell and I have been flirting quite shamefully from the car window and have promised to write at least a dozen friendly young ladies, so I guess 11l have to hire a stenographer. I’ve got a souvenir rose, too. We tell them we’re headed for France and are to go right into the trenches, which of course arouses additional interest; besides, we might be, for all we know about it. Spencerville, Kansas, Nov. 13. I left off rather suddenly the other day, to watch a big bald eagle rise out of the gorge and circle skyward and as we had an accident yesterday and I was on guard most of the time I didn’t get to write any. We have been traveling in two sections, you know, and when we stopped for a couple of hours about four oclock yesterday morning, near Cotopaji, Col. the rear section crashed into us. Our rear coach was telescoped while the caboose was entirely obliterated, nothing being left of it but match wood. Three soldiers were killed and several injured. We were still in the Royal , Gorge where the road is all curves, when the smash occurred, and the accident was probably the fault of the train dispatcher, who should have held up the rear section when we , stopped. We were delayed about eight ; hours. The views I sent you of the Royal ■ Gorge will give you an idea of the 1 , grandeur of the scenery where we I came through, but one has to really see i the original to get a sensuous impres- i sion of a wall of rock reaching three thousand feet high, or to comprehend the wild rugged beauty of it all. There are all kinds of big game back “over the hills” from the railroad, and yesterday evening I saw a ’ small flock of wild goats feeding quietly on the mountain side barely 1 a hundred yards from the track. 1 We stopped off at Pueblo for excr- t else just before supper last evening, : and were allowed a half hour’s leave 1 from the train. Called the “Pitts- •; burg of the West” Pueblo is a smoky, dirty looking town of about seventy 1 thousand and doesn’t look good to me. ] We took the Sante Fe out of Pueblo > J and awoke in Kansas this morning. ■ We are making about forty-five miles ’ an hour this morning over country as level as a dance hall, and it impresses < one as being in a new world, as pic- 1 turesque scenery of yesterday. As for game, the mountain goats of yester- ( day are replaced by long limbed, long leaping jack rabbits that get up like J a flash and fairly sail away and out of sight in the distance. ; This is a rich country and we pass ’ wheat fields, consisting of whole sec- < tions. Some of the wheat being just coming up. One can see for miles and miles over rusty pasture and cornfields, and here and there a white farmhouse surrounded by a clump of ( cottonwoods. J Camp Dodge, Nov. 14. Wq struck < I Kansas City about ten o’clock last eve- ' I ning. where we laid over till past Biid-

nJght, takini' the Chicago i Great Western up to Camp Dodge. Wo were Mol allowed to leave the train, htotigh some of the boys did manage to slip but of the windows to meet old John Barleycorn, returning shortly to troduce the fiery old gentleman to the hoys who staid in, some of whom were overjoyed to meet him. We skirted the edge of Des Moines, nee sawed around in the yards a couple of hours, and were finally towed out to the camp. We piled out, rifles, war babies and all, and took a good look at our future home, debating on whether or not we should burst into tears or break out in song. We did neither. It commenced to rain, and we all swore softly with a great deal of feeling, as we assembled in squads for a two mile hike to our barracks. By the way. I’ve never told you of "Rags,” have I, He’s our mascot, belonging to Swede, the cook, and is the wooliest of wolly dogs I ever saw. He is a big fellow too, as tall as the average collie, but wider out. When standing atill, and one whistles, you can't tell which end is going to answer the call. Well, a big overgrown bull dog didn’t like his looks, and tried for a hold as we began to fall in. He didn’t last long. Armed with three teeth and an unbroken record of thirteen years of victorious fighting, from Ft. Bliss to Manila, old Rags mauled him over about seven square blocks of lowa cornland, and sent him yelie ing home with one ear and a heart breaking limp. But to proceed, I hardly know how to describe this place on such short notice. Camp Dodge sprang up in a farming country, and consists of a vast conglomeration of barracks, stables, store-houses, hospitals, parade grounds, drives, alleys and streets, and is about nine miles long by four or five miles wide The monotony ot fresh pine buildings is broken here and there by a prosperous looking farm house, and most of the drill ground seems to be worked over corn fields, some of which haven’t been cleared up, and they make the whole shebang look ’’crummy’ enough. We are lodged in a two-story building, with our sleeping quarters upstairs, and it certainly is a fine pla>’e for its kind. We have electric lights, about fifteen tank stoves, and more window space than wall space. The first floor is occupied by the kitchen, mess hall, main hall, a big rest room and the orderly room. The wash room is another building of itself, just north of the main building, and there is a Y. M. C. A. building just across the street, east, so everything is handy and as it should be. But what worries me is how I am going to get to town, or find my way home if I do go. We are miles and miles out in the tall uncut, just how many miles I do not know, and if there is a traction line, stage coach or Indiana guide anywhere near the confines of the camp I haven’t been able, to discover it. And as for the weather. it stays cold and gets foggy, and then byway of change it gets still more foggy. I don’t know just what kind of an I organization they had here before we | came, but judging by appearances! there is going to be a great opportun j ity for intensive effort on our part to' instill some pep and get some action I out of the rookies who environ us. Still they're a good lot, and by imitating the regulars they should accomplish great things, fop they’ve got the ability, if it is latent. Well, sis, this will have to do for the present. Give dad, mamma and the kids my love, and write soon. Lovingly, 808 Co. C., 42nd Inf., Camp Dodge, lowa —o—- — NOTICE TO NON-RESIDENT.
