We are settled down here and would not be a bit surprised if we would not get to leave here for a long time, al though it ha» l>een rumored that we will leave noon, but we put no stock in that as any one can start a rumor with out any trying anil that is probably what has started it. Il we do go how ever we will more than likely go to (lamp Mill, Miniola, New York which is just outside of New York City. And of course the boys are praying, it «uch a thing ia here, that we go there and are not quarentined as some other« were while they were there. Mrs. Marcellus is here now as well as is the Major’s mother and also Mrs. Stewart and it sure seems great to see a face that one knows is from Oregon and that yon knew when yon were there. The people out there are eo different they are not eo badly «tuck on themselves, although we have no kick on the way we are treated here. The people here say that the Oregon boys •re the belt that there ia in the camp and also that they never met as nice a lot of men aa the ones from Oregon and they sure do break there necks to do something for the Oregon bnnch too. They ask you where you are from and if you »ay Oregon they say, "well will you come out to dinner?” and sav! they put up some good dinner too. It does »uro do them credit. They believe in eating if they do not believe in any thing else. I was out to a house the other evening and had a twelve course dinner and say It was some feed too and last Sunday I hail a seven course chicken dinner. They either have chicken or possum and I do not think very much ot this pos-tim as it does not appeal to me. Il may taste good after you get used to it, but I am not anxious to get used to it.

They look like rats and taste like a squirrel only the meat is a little strong er than that of a squirrel.~ Tell Herb that his girl can make a sweater for me and I will write her a letter from France when I get there, which will be some time before many more months as the papers seem to think that all the troops will be there before spring and this Division is not going to lie the last to go over either, as it is one of the best in the Army.
