June 21, 191S. Mr. and Mrs. Gall, lv.lton. 111. Pear Sir and Madam: T was a comrade of your son Paul whom we lost in our recent battl and thought I would writ-' you a line, as he had often spoken of you to me and had ine write to your raper for him. I thought that maybe you would like to receive a line direct from one of us. I felt very badly when we lost him for he was a very likeable comrade and always did his duty. He was shot while trying to dislodge some German machine guns that were causing the company trouble; so you see he was in the front and not the rear. I am sorry thiit he was not one to go home again; but. my friends, some will have to stay. We knew That when we enlisted and you knew it when you gave your son to his country; so take comfort In the fact that you did not send a coward over here and such sons will win for our country.
