You know I'm a private now.
I think Ione is busy practicing
mock marriages but a bird
in the hand is worth two in
the bush.
Well Sis have been re-initiated
into the "bang" lodge again which
means the line. We were favored
with fine weather and sometimes
with considerable attention from
Fritz, but I'll bet he got a belly
full when he started feeding us.
I got quite a few souvenirs
and send them to Ione as I think
she was curious to see something
Fritz, and as one of the articles did
not look any too nice, guess the
curiosity will "partie."
I went over to Olivers residence
a couple of days before we were
relieved, and he was jake with the
exception of a dirty face and
an awful growth of whiskers.
Found a book in a dugout
which had been sold by a
bookseller in Tokio Japan.
