Donr Sister nnd Hrqthor:
On November 20th I received your

aw that you both were In good
health but wo nro very unhappy on
account of tho wnr.
On the second of August tho war

cloHod nnd tho men hnd'to go. I
have worked eight days out of tho
four months nnd my dnughtor works
ono dny ench wook nnd wo nro nil
nloho In our house no protection
from anyone.
On tho third of August father wont
to tho city to see n friend who was
going to tho front nnd about 0
o'clock four policemen cnino to tho
bonne nnd HHked for 'him nud when
I told thorn he had gone to tho city
but would bo back rood, thoy cnnio
In nnd Hcnrchod tho house, requiring
ma to show them nil valuable papers
but thoy found nothing of vnluo to
thorn ns wo hnvo always boon loyal to
this government At 7 o'clock father
cnnio back, but tho policemen hnd
go no so wo wont to tho station nnd
nuked for tho pnperB permitting uh
to romnln In Franco, Junt ns all Al
mu'latiH nro required to do. At 10
o'clock two policemen cnnio back
and told father to come with them.
Ho showed thorn his pnpors nnd told
thorn It wns not his fault that ho
had not secured his naturalization
papers, hecniiBo ho had applied for
thoni two years Jioforo nnd thoy woro
rotnrdod, but tho pollcomou told him
to come with thorn nnywny. Thoy did
not handcuff him they woro very
kind to him, Thoy told mo that I
