Hi List, I've already posted one letter written by Jonathan Morgan McCants and have located some additional ones. Carla Miles The Butler Herald Thursday, August 22, 1918 Page One Letters From The Boys "Over There" From Mr. J. Morgan McCants Somewhere in France July 22nd, 1918 Dear Mamma: I write to let you know I have arrived safely "Somewhere in France." I am just as well as can be and must say we had a grand trip crossing over. We enjoyed it so much better than we had expected. Did not have any trouble on sea and Mamma, we all feel like we could never get through thanking the good Lord for our safe arrival on land once more. When we landed on shore there were 50 little boys singing "Our Welcome Song," and I thought it was the sweetest and best song I ever heard. Lots of the Camp Wheeler boys came over as we did, some that we knew. The Red Cross girls and the Y.M.C.A. are so very kind to us, in fact we don't see how we could get along without them. I have never seen so many little children in one place in my life as there are here, and they are all so pretty. The French people are very kind to us. They are crazy about the American boys. I have received two letters from you since I landed and you may know what a letter from home means to us. Our letters are passed by Censor, and if anything is taken out of them you may know why. I am so glad papa is still improving. Now, you all please don't worry about me, I am getting on nicely and God is with me and I believe by His help I am coming back home some day. Give my regards to all my friends. Much love to each one of you. Your devoted son, Jonathan Morgan McCants Mech. No. 1342553, Co. C. 1st Pioneer Inft. A.E.F, France The Butler Herald Thursday, September 26, 1918 Page One Letters From Taylor County Boys Fighting For Their Country In France Private J. Morgan McCants, son of Hon. and Mrs. J.J. McCants, who is serving his country in France, writes his parents that he will have lots to tell them when he returns home, and that he would not take anything for his experience and what he has seen since leaving the states. He writes as follows. Somewhere in France Aug. 13th, 1918 My dear Mamma and Papa: I received several letters from you and other members of the family today, dated from the 8th to the 15th of July, so you see it takes them a long time to reach me, but words are unable to express the pleasure those letters gave this old boy. It is a lot of consolation for me to know you all were very well at this date, and I do hope that the Lord will spare you both for me, as I just don't feel like I could come back home knowing I would not find my mamma and papa. I am still in good health. My greatest trouble is thinking about you all too much and then a lots of things I see over here doesn't make me feel good, but I don't think we will be over here long. I only wish I could tell you all what I have seen with my own eyes but of course I can't tell till I see you and then it will take me a long, long time. Papa, I would not take anything for what I have learned since I left our dear old U.S.A. I sure have enjoyed this trip all the way, better than I ever dreamed of. I know this is one of the most beautiful places on earth, and I will always love these French people, for they certainly have been very kind to us. They are Godly people and I surely think we will win this war. Well the Pioneer boys are attached to the Engineers, so you see we are behind the firing lines. Our work is to wait on the fighting men, but we are near enough the front to hear the guns and we see a plenty but cannot tell you much, only we have the Huns on the run and I am sure we shall keep them on the go. I know that you all keep up with us in the papers as far as you can. The Germans were driven off this place where I am just a few days before we came here and as they were in a rush they left lots of things that are real interesting to us. I wish I could send some of them home. Some of the boys from the front have been bringing us lots of "war relics" and also good news. We boys are camping in barracks now and we are having nice times, as we are out of all the bad weather. We are having bad, rainy weather over here, I hope you all are getting some in the pond. Mamma, I sure do feel sorry for these poor little French children. I see just numbers of them over here the size of Clifton, Jack and Verna. Most all of them are orphans and I tell you it hurts me worse than anything I see. I give them part of my food each day and they always say "merci" their word for "thank you." Well I hope Otisis at home yet. I do hope they won't have to send any more of our boys over here. Tell Murray I think of him every day and wish I was there to help him out and eat some fish. Yes I wish I could go coon hunting but you see I am out on a hunt for Uncle Sam just now, which is much important. Say hello to Robert for me and tell him I say stay with you until I come. Tell Mr. Oscar Cox I say write me all he knows. I often think of him and Jere making that flying trip to Camp Wheeler for me and how glad I was to see dear old home once more before crossing over. How is Jay? I have tried to hear from him but guess his address has changed. Has Parker and Thea left for over-sea yet? I am sure they have. You all please worry as little as you can now and write often. Much love to all. God be with you until we meet again is my prayer. Your Loving Son, Morgan McCants

Janson spent his school days in Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi, and when 21 years old, commenced farming for himself. He located in Arkansas in 1856, on the farm where he now resides. He entered 160 acres of land, and after clearing it thoroughly, began a system of improvement and cultivation that does great credit to his superior judgement. He has served several terms as Justice of the Peace. During the late war he served in the Confederate army, and was dismissed at Marshall, Tex, May 5, 1865, after engaging in many of the chief battles and undergoing the hardships and deprivations necessary to a soldier's life.
