Letters from The Boys Who Have Gone
to Makethe World Safe for Democracy
Letter received by Miss Jennie
Fitzpatrick from her brother,
Vincent, now on the fighting line
in France:
On the Line, July 12, 1918.
Dear Jennie : Received your let
ter some time ago, I was very
glad to hear from you. Haven't
received very much mail since
we came to this front. Am writ
ing this in a dugout and have a
very poor place and light but I
ruess you will be able to read it.
Just a couple of days ago Fritz
made it so hot for us we had to
move our horses under fire. They
sure came pretty fast and real
close too. Although no one was
hurt very badly J. 0. Emmons
was scratched slightly in the
side but it was so slight that it
hardly bled any. Have a piece
of one of the shots that came
over, will save it for a souvenir
as it is one of our lucky shots.
It landed in the middle of 150
horses and about the same num
ber of men and hit no one. Was
over to see a dentist this after
noon but didn't iret anv worlr
done, am going back in the a. m.
This is Julv 14 so mess I will
finish this letter. Moved since
I started this letter but we are
still on the same front. Todav
is French Independence day and
they, are havinpr a bit? celebra
tion. So was Fritz this a. m.
about 5:00 O'clock, he wnlra ma
up bv dropping about 200 rounds
of H. E. but he didn't do any
harm by doing it. But they sure
make a very interesting whistle
when on their way over.although
I guess ours gives about the same
music to his ears only we send
over more kisses than he can
send back. Just now received
your letter and read it, also the
card and gum, am chewing1 the
gum now, tastes pretty good.
Was out stealing cherries this a.
m. they sure tasted good. Re-,
ceived a letter from Dick just
the other day. He didn't have
much to say. As yet he hasn't
been on the firing line, But he
will get there soon enough. Oh,
yes I also received your Red
Cross button but it was broken
in three pieces. Well news is
scarce so will close for this time.
With love, VINCENT.
