4,

broke as usual. In
my first letter I told
you all about the
Argonne trip & what
a regular fellow
Chet. Rothwell was. He
is a Captain of Engineers
in the 2nd Division A.E.F.
He & I bought all the
liquor in Port au Prince
nearly (4 cases Johnnie
Walker, black label, scotch;
2 cases Gordon Gin; one
case champagne; 4
gallons Haitian rum;
and odds & ends like
Benedictine, Annisette,
etc) and from then on
