ALBERT KEARNES WRITES HIS MOTHER FROM FRANCE, TELLING OF ARMY LIFE WITH HIM Euville, France, Feb. 18. Dear Mother: I will write again. I am well and hope this finds you the same. We are having lots of rain here now. I got three letters from home since I have been over here. When was the last time you heard from Grandmother. When you write to her, tell them all hello for me. We had a big parade the other day and we were in the rain all day with our pack without taking them off. I suppose there are lots of snow over there now. Have Bud and Maud got their car yet? Tell father not to work too hard and that I hope I will be home soon. Have you heard from Uncle Floyd? Did Bud Kernes [sic] get over here, the last time I saw him was in Cody. I don’t know whether he got over or not. I got a letter from Martha the other day. They were all well. Tell the children all hello for me. Tell them all to write to me. Well, I guess I will close for this time, so good-bye. PVT. ALBERT CARNES [sic], Address Co. F, 139 Inf., Am. E.F.
