Piles of Mail For Soldiers Held Up ; in France, Writes Captain Lldrkley

Great piles of mail destined for soldier boys somewhere in France are described ' by Captain Stephen B. Markley as being tied up in Tours, until recently the central headquarters of the mail service of the A. E. F. The mail service is described by Captain Markley in letters received by his wife as very poor. : Extracts from letters dated Dec. IS and 27, received by Mrs. Markley, follow: "One of the worst features over here is hot being able to hear from home. The last letter I received was the one you wrote October 11. After leaving the hospital where 1 had been ill, I called at the post office at Tours, on Dec. 1, thinking surely I would get my mail there, since 905 had been taken away when the 84th division was reassigned. They informed me that , the central post office had been moved, about a month ago, to Bourges, a town about 75 miles east of Tours. All the big buildings in Tours were full of mail, and they had great piles of mail sacks outside covered with tarpaulin. There were three carloads of mail standing on jthe track unloaded. ' . Five days later I obtained a pass and traveled 65 miles down to Bourges to try to find your letters which I know must be somewhere in France, but I had no success. How I wish I could get your letters and your Christmas packages but I may never get them in this mixed up mess over here. I do not know what the troubll is but nearly every officer I speak to is paving the same difficulty. I know now what it means when people talk about the lowering of an army's morale when the soldier can't hear from home. I would give a great dealthis morning to know whether you are all right and whether you escaped the flu. I can't get any word from you and I am disappointed to the limit and cross as well because of the fact that there are letters for me somewhere in France and I can's find them.

I reported for duty at St Ajgnan on the night of Dec. 2, about 8 p. m. It was dark and muddy. I was then -sent to These, another camp about 6 . miles distant. I arrived there with my baggage in a truck about 9 p. m., and was fortunate in getting the last available billet In the town. This room was 1 miles from where I messed. At mess there were no tables and in the evening no lights.- We got our food from . the field kitchen and found a stone walL or rock or something else to put our pans on. We bad to eat In the dark at supper time. , 4lfter the divisions were broken up ail the doctors were sent to St. Algnan for reassignment to duty. This strange thing was done recently. About 100 doctors reported there for duty who had been sent over from the United States after the armistice had been signed. They say they were in New York, Chicago and other cities during the armistice celebrations. They are over here now with nothing to do. No one can understand such a proceeding. 1 imagine doctors are really needed in America during this flu epidemic. "At St. Aignan I received orders to report to the Commanding General, Advanced section and' Neufchatean, for . duty, and the next day I reached Chaumont, where General Pershing has his headquarters. From the general I was sent to the chief surgeon for further orders and was then sent to Pontarlier, near the Swiss border, southeast of Dijon. Early on the 14th of December I started for my new place. At one of the changes at Dajon I had to sit up all night until my train left the next morning, as I could get no room at the hotel. I felt tough and bad to travel the next day but It had to be done. I am almost used to feeling tough over here. I have not gotten over the influenza just right and it doesn't take much to make me feel bad. "At present I am the surgeon for the E02d Engineers, who are . doing work at thisplace. All the allied prisoners coming from Germany through Switzerland come through this station. I give medical aid to all the American prisoners coming through. There Is also a French and an English doctor associated with jne. I send all my patients to a hospital about 20 miles from here and that is also where I get my mail. It is' said that we are in the coldest part of France here in the foothills of the Alps. Our elevation is 3,000 feet. The ground is covered with snow, and it is 2 degrees below zero today. They say it Is not unusual for the snow to be 4 or 5 feet deep. From the top of a mountain just behind the town we have a splendid view of Mt. Blanc, Jungfrau, and the Beranise Alps. There are wonderful gorges about here and we have visited many of them. Address my letters now to Camp Hospital No. 12, A. P. O. 704, Valdehon. France. CAPT. STEPHEN C. MARKLEY. M.D.
