sore. We slept in foxholes the last
two nights and either I am beginning to feel
my age or I can't take it anymore. I would
lie in the foxhole until I got warm and
I got warm my side would ache then I would
have to turn on my other side, which would
cause me to get cold again. This cot of mine
is going to feel like a beautyrest mattress
tonight.

I finally got a letter to Father MacMillan
mailed. It isn't that I have too busy but normally
I am tired so I put it off until the next night
when I have something to do. You should have
received my allotment by the time you get
this letter, let me know so I can put in a
squack if you haven't. I have some money on
the books as I haven't had to draw any due
to my luck at poker. Well Eva I guess this
will be all for now as I want to turn in,
say "hello" to everyone for me

Love
Jewell
