Henry Luers Expects to Reach Home September 1st.

The family of Henry Luers received a letter from him-thls Thursday morning. It was written at Vetcha, Oldenberg, Germany, on Aug. 3rd. At that time he expected to reach home on or abdut Sept. Ist Mr. Luers had three nephews and one brother-in-law who had to go to the war. The anxiety of the family was somewhat relieved by the receipt of the letter, but it is quite probable that iMt Luers will not be able to get home at the time set in the letter, as it is probable that he cam not secure passage direct and there will be some delay if he has to come by way of Italy and the Mediteranean. )
