Dearest Mother and Family:-
Have just finished reading your letter of 2/14/19 and am sorry you haven't
heard from me for so long. I am up and around after spending three days in
bed. You see we were given another shot in the arm the other day and it
was a dose of six in one. I stood mine O.K. until after dinner and then
began to feel a trifle dopey. I went to bed for a couple of hours and upon
rising I did my old stunt of falling on my head and thereby aquired (sp) a
nice peeled nose and a lovely gash in the head. I was not alone in my
misery because most everyone was down and out including the Capt. and the
officers. Even the doctor himself was laid out. I am coming around in good
shape and beginning to eat once more. I heard from Florence today also and
was glad to hear she would be home soon for a while at least. Last night I
heard from Anna Humphries and the information given her by the Graves
Registration Bureau differs widely from that I received. I am going to
write them again and ask them to send me the real facts.
We are having spring weather again and many showers. We were to be
reviewed by Gen. Pershing today but it has been postponed until next week.
Was so glad to hear that dad had done so well with Hurst as a heater and
hope he can get four days a week, anyhow. I am not very steady as yet so
will make this a short note and close by sending all my love to all of
you.
