LETTER FROM JASPER COUNTY SOLDIER

On The Front, Somewhere in France, March 30, 1918. Miss Ola Drake, Lafayette, Indiana. * R “G.” Dear friend Ola and all the rest:— I received your letter the first of this week and I certainly was glad to hear from you also very-much surprised. Noticed carefully what you have written, your letter was dated, March 3, and I received it the 28th, that isn’t bad traveling considering the conditions. Don’t believe it if any one tells lam digging trench:s, “for I am not,” but we dig gun pits for our heavy six in-pieces. I am about 5 kilometers from the German urst line trenches. Tonight x ... i in a concrete dugout and can hjar the roar of the guns. It’s certainly an awful feeling to be under shell fire. It surely shocks the nerves of a soldier. The Germans shelled us with shrapnels, but that didn’t worry us much, but' when they commenced dropping high explosive in odr position it almost got our goat. But as luck struck us we didn’t lose men only by the exception of one man lost his leg by shell fire. It is raining here tonight, but that does not stop the war or the roar of the big guns. I am glad that the winter has not been so bad as it was ih the States, and very little sickness we have had. I guess we are adapted to the out door life and can stand the hardships that we have to go against. V don’t know how long the war will last, but from what I can hear the Germans are losing heavy. You can’t imagine what war is until you see it with your own eyes. The Y, M. C. A. is doing a wonderful part and the Red Cross is doing a greater part. I received a sleeveless sweater, three pairs of woplen socks, one pair of wristlets and a muffler that the Red Cross issued to us boys in France, which have been a great benefit to me. We also received some Christmas presents from the Red Cross which we were glad to receive. I guess there is nothing you could send me now that would be of any benefit to me unless it would be a box of candy, which is impossible for us to buy. March 31, Easter Sunday, they say, but I failed to get any eggs for breakfast. It rained here this morning so I guess it will rain for seven Sundays if the old saying holds good in this country. But I hope it fails. I guess the Germans are eating Easter eggs now for it is very quiet. Maybe they will open up on us after awhile. Our breakfast consisted of about four slices of bacon, three slices of bread, one pint of coffee and a tablespoonful of sugar. But we get more for dinner and supper. You would laugh at me if you could see me writing this letter. lam sitting under the cradle of our piece to keep the rain from falling on this paper. But this paper, looks very much like it had gone through the war. Excuse this writing and the looks of the paper. No, I haven’t met Charles Crowe but he is in this regiment in the second battalion. lam in the third. If we happen to go to a rest camp I will look for him, but I don’t know where he is now. Frank Overton is surely having bad luck with his family, but I guess it was a good winter in the state for sickness and I hope you have recovered from the measles O. K. When I get back (if I am lucky enough to return) the young folks will all be married and I will be left alone with many others. Tough luck.

I write to several people of near Rensselaer, but it seems like it takes a letter a year to go and come. We certainly appreciate letters. It makes no difference who they are from, but we all look for a letter from “mother.” Notice the Indianapolis paper closely, perhaps you will see the pic- ! ture of i our gun in the pit. lam not in the picture.
