MARQUIS PECK WRITES TO HIS MOTHER

U. S. S. Roanoke, May 81, 1918. Dear Folks At Home: Well I am still here and having a good time. 1 received the old tramp letter all 0. K. The insurance policy is safe. Will tell you about it as soon as I get time to write a letter. I have seen William Tilton and several of the other boys that came with us from the west coast. I received five letters from home. One from Guy, one from uncle Frank, and one from a friend who is on the U. S. S. New York now. Have been on liberty three times in Scotland and I think I will go again tonight. Will finish the other letter as soon as possible. My address. MARQUIS PEEK, U. S. S. Roanoke, U. S. Naval Forces, European Waters, U. S. Naval Base 18, care Postmaster, New York City, N. Y.
